Abstract
A method of forming a device is disclosed. A substrate defined with a device region is provided. A gate having an upper and a lower portion is formed in a trench in the substrate in the device region. The upper portion forms a gate electrode and the lower portion forms a gate field plate. First and second surface doped regions are formed adjacent to the gate. The gate field plate introduces vertical reduced surface (RESURF) effect in a drift region of the device.
