Disclosed is a power device, such as power MOSFET, and method for fabricating same. The device includes an upper trench situated over a lower trench, where the upper trench is wider than the lower trench. The device further includes a trench dielectric inside the lower trench and on sidewalls of the upper trench. The device also includes an electrode situated within the trench dielectric. The trench dielectric of the device has a bottom thickness that is greater than a sidewall thickness.

Method of fabricating a power semiconductor device

Semiconductor device with a field plate double trench having a thick bottom dielectric

Methods of fabricating bipolar junction transistors, bipolar junction transistors, and design structures for a bipolar junction transistor. A first portion of the intrinsic base layer is masked while a second portion of an intrinsic base layer is etched. As a consequence of the masking, the second portion of the intrinsic base layer is thinner than the first portion of the intrinsic base layer. An emitter and an extrinsic base layer are formed in respective contacting relationships with the first and second portions of the intrinsic base layer.

Interface control in a bipolar junction transistor

Disclosed is a power device, such as a power MOSFET, and methods for fabricating same. The device includes a field plate trench. The device further includes first and second trench dielectrics inside the field plate trench. The device also includes a field plate situated over the first trench dielectric and within the second trench dielectric. A combined thickness of the first and second trench dielectrics at a bottom of the field plate trench is greater than a sidewall thickness of the second trench dielectric.

Semiconductor device with a field plate trench having a thick bottom dielectric

Disclosed is a power device, such as a power MOSFET device and a method for fabricating same. The device includes a field plate trench. The field plate trench has a predetermined width and a predetermined sidewall angle. The device further includes a single trench dielectric on sidewalls of the field plate trench and at a bottom of the field plate trench. The single trench dielectric has a bottom thickness that is greater than a sidewall thickness. The device also includes a field plate situated within the single trench dielectric.
