Abstract
A transistor device includes a semiconductor body having a substantially planar main surface, a source region extending to the main surface and having a first conductivity type, a body region extending to the main surface and having a second conductivity type, a drain region extending to the main surface and having the first conductivity type, a drift region having the first conductivity type, and a gate electrode arranged on the main surface laterally between the source and drain regions and electrically insulated from the semiconductor body by an insulation structure. The insulation structure includes a gate dielectric arranged on the main surface and a shallow trench arranged in the drift region and filled with electrically insulating material. The shallow trench has at least partly a wedge shape and the electrically insulating material has an upper surface that is substantially planar and extends substantially parallel to the main surface.
