A vertical power transistor device includes a semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type, with a plurality of cylindrically-shaped dielectric regions disposed in the semiconductor layer. The cylindrically-shaped dielectric regions extend in a vertical direction from a top surface of the semiconductor layer downward. Adjacent ones of the cylindrically-shaped dielectric regions being laterally separated along a common diametrical axis by a narrow region of the semiconductor layer having a first width. Each dielectric region has a cylindrically-shaped, conductive field plate member centrally disposed therein. The cylindrically-shaped, conductive field plate member extends in the vertical direction from the top surface downward to near a bottom of the dielectric region. The dielectric region laterally separates the cylindrically-shaped, conductive field plate member from the narrow region. A source region is disposed at the top surface, and a drain region is disposed at the bottom, of the semiconductor layer.
