Abstract
According to some embodiments, a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device is provided. One or more first implantation processes are performed to form an implanted region, of a first conductivity type, in a semiconductor body. A trench is formed in the semiconductor body. After forming the trench, a second implantation process is performed to form a current spread region, of a second conductivity type, in the semiconductor body. The second implantation process includes implanting first dopants, through a top surface of the semiconductor body, to form a first portion of the current spread region, and implanting second dopants, through a bottom of the trench, to form a second portion of the current spread region. A gate structure is formed in the trench. A vertical position of the first portion of the current spread region matches a vertical position of the gate structure. The second portion of the current spread region underlies the gate structure.
