Abstract
A closed cell trench MOSFET structure having a drain region of a first conductivity type, a body of a second conductivity type, a trenched gate, and a plurality of source regions of the first conductivity type is provided. The body is located on the drain region. The trenched gate is located in the body and has at least two stripe portions and a cross portion. A bottom of the stripe portions is located in the drain region and a bottom of the cross portion is in the body. The source regions are located in the body and at least adjacent to the stripe region of the trenched gate.
Claims6
A method to fabricate a closed cell trench MOSFET structure, comprising the steps of:
- providing a drain region of a first conductivity type;
- forming a first doped region of a second conductivity type on the drain region;
- forming a trench within the first doped region, the trench having at least two stripe regions and a cross region, and a bottom of the trench being located in the drain region;
- forming a gate dielectric layer lining inner surfaces of the trench;
- forming a first polysilicon layer in the trench, the first polysilicon layer substantially filling the stripe regions but leaving a concave at a middle of the cross region;
- etching the first polysilicon layer to from a window to expose a bottom of the cross region;
- forming a second doped region of the second conductivity type adjacent to the bottom of the cross region through the etched first polysilicon layer;
- and
- forming a second polysilicon layer to fill the window.
