Method for Fabricating a Shallow and Narrow Trench FET

摘要

According to an embodiment of a method for fabricating a trench field-effect transistor (trench FET), the method includes: forming a trench in a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type, the trench including sidewalls which taper from a wider, top portion of the trench to a narrower, bottom portion of the trench; forming a gate dielectric in the trench, the gate dielectric having substantially the same thickness in the wider, top portion of the trench as in the narrower, bottom portion of the trench; forming a gate electrode in the trench and separated from the semiconductor substrate by the gate dielectric; and forming a channel region of a second conductivity type in the semiconductor substrate after forming the trench and the gate dielectric, the channel region being disposed adjacent the trench. Trench FETs formed by the method are also disclosed.
