Abstract
A semiconductor structure is provided. A second area is disposed between first and third areas. An epitaxial layer is on a substrate. A body layer is in the epitaxial layer in first and second areas. First and second gates are in the body layer and in a portion of the epitaxial layer. The first gate is in the substrate and partially in first and second areas. The second gate is in the substrate and partially in second and third areas. A first contact plug is in a portion of the body layer in the first area. A second contact plug is at least in the epitaxial layer in the third area and contacts the epitaxial layer and the second gate. The first contact plug is electrically connected to the second contact plug. A first doped region is in the body layer between the first contact plug and the first gate.
