DIRECT CONTACT IN TRENCH WITH THREE-MASK SHIELD GATE PROCESS

摘要

A semiconductor substrate may be etched to form trenches with three different widths. A first conductive material is formed at the bottom of the trenches. A second conductive material separated by an insulator is formed over the first conductive material. A first insulator layer is formed on the trenches. A body layer is formed in the substrate. A source is formed in the body layer. A second insulator layer is formed on the trenches and source. Source and gate contacts are formed through the second insulator layer. Source and gate metal are formed on the second insulator layer.
