Abstract
A super junction structure includes a substrate, wherein the substrate has a first conductivity type. The super junction structure includes an epitaxial layer over the substrate, wherein the epitaxial layer has a second conductivity type opposite the first conductivity type. The super junction structure further includes a bury layer between the epitaxial layer and the substrate, wherein the bury layer has the second conductivity type. The super junction structure further includes a conductive pillar in the epitaxial layer, wherein the conductive pillar has the first conductivity type, sidewalls of the conductive pillar are angled with respect to a top-most surface of the epitaxial layer, a bottom surface of the conductive pillar is rounded, and a top-most surface of the conductive pillar is coplanar with the top-most surface of the epitaxial layer.
