Abstract
Fabricating a semiconductor device includes: forming a first gate trench and a second gate trench in an epitaxial layer overlaying a semiconductor substrate; depositing gate material in the first gate trench to form a first gate and depositing gate material in the second gate trench to form a second gate; forming a body; forming a source; forming an active region contact trench that extends through the source and the body, and a gate contact trench within the second gate; forming an island region under the active region contact trench and disconnected from the body, the island region having an opposite polarity as the epitaxial layer; and disposing a first electrode within the active region contact trench and a second electrode within the gate contact trench.
