Abstract
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor power device, comprising the steps of: forming a trench in a semiconductor body having a first type of conductivity; partially filling the trench with semiconductor material via epitaxial growth so as to obtain a first column having a second type of conductivity and having an internal cavity. The epitaxial growth includes simultaneously supplying a gas containing dopant ions of the second type of conductivity, hydrochloric acid HCl in gaseous form and dichlorosilane DCS in gaseous form, so that the ratio between the amount of HCl and the amount of DCS has a value of from 3.5 to 5.5.
