The present invention provides a trench gate structure and a method of forming the same. The method comprises steps of forming a first trench on the surface of a substrate, a surface of a bottom of the first trench comprising a crystal face belonging to the first family of crystal faces, and a surface of a sidewall of the first trench comprising another crystal face belonging to a second family of crystal faces. With a face-selective wet etching, a specific crystal face is presented on the surface of the bottom of the trench and a thicker gate oxide layer is formed thereon after performing thermal oxidation to avoid from failure due to thinner gate oxide layer on the surface of the bottom, increase breakdown voltage, and improve reliability of the device.
