Abstract
In a general aspect, an apparatus can include a semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type, the semiconductor layer having a top-side surface. The apparatus can also include a well region of a second conductivity type opposite the first conductivity type, the well region being disposed in an upper portion of the semiconductor layer. The apparatus can further include a gate trench disposed in the semiconductor layer, the gate trench extending through the well region, and a drain contact disposed, at least in part, on the top-side surface of the semiconductor layer, the drain contact being adjacent to the well region. The apparatus can still further include an isolation trench disposed between the drain contact and the gate trench in the semiconductor layer, the isolation trench extending through the well region.
