摘要:
Fabricating a semiconductor device includes: forming a gate trench in an epitaxial layer overlaying a semiconductor substrate; disposing gate material in the gate trench; forming a body in the epitaxial layer; forming a source in the body; forming an active region contact trench that has a varying trench depth; and disposing a contact electrode within the active region contact trench. Forming the active region contact trench includes performing a first etch to form a first contact trench depth associated with a first region, and performing a second etch to form a second contact trench depth associated with a second region. The first contact trench depth is substantially different from the second contact trench depth.
