1. A semiconductor component, comprising:
at least one dielectric layer; and
at least one first electrode and at least one second electrode,
wherein at least one first defect type and at least one second defect type, which is different from the first defect type, are present in the dielectric layer, the at least one first defect type and the at least one second defect type accumulating at one of the first and second electrodes, as a function of a main operating voltage applied between the first electrode and the second electrode, and a main operating temperature that is present at characteristic times τ1 and τ2, and generating maximum changes in barrier height δΦ1 and δΦ2 at the first and second electrodes, τ1 and δΦ1 being associated with the first defect type, and τ2 and δΦ2 being associated with the second defect type, where τ12 and δΦ1<δΦ2 apply.
