Vertical trench DMOSFET having integrated implants forming enhancement diodes in parallel with the body diode

摘要

Fabricating a semiconductor device comprises: forming a gate trench in an epitaxial layer overlaying a semiconductor substrate; depositing gate material in the gate trench; forming a body in the epitaxial layer; forming a source embedded in the body; forming a contact trench that extends through the source and at least part of the body; disposing an implant at least along a contact trench wall; and disposing an epitaxial enhancement portion below the contact trench and in contact with the implant.
