A semiconductor device includes a pillar formed on a substrate of the same conductivity type. The pillar has a vertical thickness that extends from a top surface down to the substrate. The pillar extends in first and second lateral directions in a loop shape. First and second dielectric regions are disposed on opposite lateral sides of the pillar, respectively. First and second conductive field plates are respectively disposed in the first and second dielectric regions. A metal layer is disposed on the top surface of the pillar, the metal layer forming a Schottky diode with respect to the pillar. When the substrate is raised to a high-voltage potential with respect to both the metal layer and the first and second field plates, the first and second field plates functioning capacitively to deplete the pillar of charge, thereby supporting the high-voltage potential along the vertical thickness of the pillar. |
