Abstract
A trench power semiconductor device is provided. A trench gate structure of the trench power semiconductor device located in a cell trench of an epitaxial layer includes a first dielectric layer, a second dielectric layer, a gate electrode, a third dielectric layer, and a shielding layer. The second dielectric layer is interposed between the first and third dielectric layers, and the second dielectric layer is made from different material than the first dielectric layer. After performing a selective etching step on the second dielectric layer, a recess can be formed among the first, second and third dielectric layers. The gate electrode includes a conductive layer formed in the recess region, and the shielding electrode is surrounded by the third dielectric layer and insulated from the conductive layer.
