A termination structure with multiple embedded potential spreading capacitive structures (TSMEC) and method are disclosed for terminating an adjacent trench MOSFET atop a bulk semiconductor layer (BSL) with bottom drain electrode. The BSL has a proximal bulk semiconductor wall (PBSW) supporting drain-source voltage (DSV) and separating TSMEC from trench MOSFET. The TSMEC has oxide-filled large deep trench (OFLDT) bounded by PBSW and a distal bulk semiconductor wall (DBSW). The OFLDT includes a large deep oxide trench into the BSL and embedded capacitive structures (EBCS) located inside the large deep oxide trench and between PBSW and DBSW for spatially spreading the DSV across them. In one embodiment, the EBCS contains interleaved conductive embedded polycrystalline semiconductor regions (EPSR) and oxide columns (OXC) of the OFLDT, a proximal EPSR next to PBSW is connected to an active upper source region and a distal EPSR next to DBSW is connected to the DBSW.

摘要:
The present invention features a field effect transistor that includes a semiconductor substrate having gate, source and drain regions; and a p-n junction formed on the semiconductor substrate and in electrical communication with the gate, drain and source regions to establish a desired breakdown voltage. In one embodiment, gate region further includes a plurality of spaced-apart trench gates with the p-n junction being defined by an interface between an epitaxial layer in which the trench gates are formed and the interface with a metallization layer. The breakdown voltage provided is defined, in part by the number of p-n junctions formed. In another embodiment, the p-n junctions are formed by generating a plurality of spaced-apart p-type regions in areas of the epitaxial layer located adjacent to the trench gates.
