Method for making vertical MOSFET with reduced bipolar effects

摘要

A vertical MOSFET device includes a semiconductor wafer having source, body and drain regions of alternate conductivity type disposed therein. The source and drain regions are located so as to define the length and width of a channel region in the body region at a surface of the wafer. The body region further includes a similar conductivity type supplementary region having a relatively high areal dopant concentration. The supplementary region, which can be fabricated by ion implantation, extends laterally beneath a portion of the channel region. A source electrode is disposed on one wafer surface and a drain electrode is disposed on an opposing wafer surface.
