Abstract
A method comprises providing a substrate with a second conductivity type, growing a first epitaxial layer having the second conductivity type, growing a second epitaxial layer having a first conductivity type, forming a trench in the first epitaxial layer and the second epitaxial layer, forming a gate electrode in the trench, applying an ion implantation process using first gate electrode as an ion implantation mask to form a drain-drift region, forming a field plate in the trench, forming a drain region in the second epitaxial layer, wherein the drain region has the first conductivity type and forming a source region in the first epitaxial layer, wherein the source region has the first conductivity type, and wherein the source region is electrically coupled to the field plate.
