A semiconductor device and a method of making a semiconductor device. The device includes a semiconductor substrate having a first conductivity type, a layer of doped silicon located on the substrate, a trench extending into the layer of silicon, and a gate electrode and gate dielectric located in the trench. The device also includes a drain region, a body region having a second conductivity type located adjacent the trench and above the drain region, and a source region having the first conductivity type located adjacent the trench and above the body region. The layer of doped silicon in a region located beneath the body region includes donor ions and acceptor ions forming a net doping concentration within said region by compensation. The net doping concentration of the layer of doped silicon as a function of depth has a minimum in a region located immediately beneath the body region.
