Power MOSFET and its edge termination

摘要

Improved MOSFET structures and processes, where multiple polysilicon embedded regions are introduced into the n+ source contact area. A top poly Field Plate is used to shield the electric field from penetrating into the channel, so that a very short channel can be used without jeopardizing the device drain-source leakage current. A bottom poly Field Plate is used to modulate the electric field distribution in the drift region such that a more uniform field distribution can be obtained.
