Abstract
An improved symmetrical blocking high voltage semiconductor device structure incorporating a sinker region and a buried region adjacent the periphery of the chip improves device operating characteristics and simplifies device fabrication processes. A heavily doped polycrystalline refill of a trench provides a deep junction sidewall region which brings the lower high voltage blocking junction to the upper surface.
