Abstract
A semiconductor substrate has a trench extending from a front surface and including a lower part and an upper part. A first insulation layer lines the lower part of the trench, and a first conductive material in the lower part is insulated from the semiconductor substrate by the first insulating layer to form a field plate electrode of a transistor. A second insulating layer lines sidewalls of the upper part of said trench. A third insulating layer lines a top surface of the first conductive material at a bottom of the upper part of the trench. A second conductive material fills the upper part of the trench. The second conductive material forms a gate electrode of the transistor that is insulated from the semiconductor substrate by the second insulating layer and further insulated from the first conductive material by the third insulating layer.
