Abstract
A method comprises forming a buried layer over a substrate, forming an epitaxial layer over the buried layer, forming a first trench and a second trench in the buried layer and the epitaxial layer, wherein a width of the second trench is greater than a width of the first trench, depositing a dielectric layer in the first trench and the second trench, wherein the dielectric layer partially fills the second trench, removing the dielectric layer in the second trench and forming a first gate region in the first trench and a second gate region in the second trench.
