Abstract
This article is the successor of Dempwolff and Neumann (Des. Codes Cryptogr. 57:373–381, 2010). We now consider semibent functions with a linear structure. Semibent functions of partial spread type with a linear structure seem to be rare. We distinguish four classes of such semibent functions. For three classes we exhibit some examples.
