Trench MOSFET with depleted gate shield and method of manufacture

Abstract

A semiconductor device, method of manufacture of a semiconductor device, and electronic system are disclosed. For example, the semiconductor device includes at least one trench disposed in a semiconductor substrate of the semiconductor device, wherein the semiconductor substrate has a first conductivity type. The semiconductor device further includes a polysilicon depleted gate shield disposed in the at least one trench, wherein the polysilicon depleted gate shield has a second conductivity type. The semiconductor device also includes a drift region disposed in the semiconductor substrate adjacent to at least one sidewall of the at least one trench, wherein the drift region has the first conductivity type, and a polysilicon gate disposed over the depleted gate shield in the at least one trench.
