Problems solved by technology

In addition, the thinning phenomenon of the gate oxide film 11 occurs in regions C and D shown in the figure, resulting in deterioration of the oxide film properties and reliability of the gate oxide film 11 formed on the inner wall of the groove 7.
[0016] In addition, in the process of FIG. 18(b), since the gate oxide film 11 is formed, n + type emitter layer 5 and p-type base layer 4, so the dopant in the diffusion layer will diffuse into the gate oxide film 11, deteriorating the characteristics or reliability of the gate oxide film

Abstract

In a trenched MOS gate power device having a trenched MOS gate structure, a gate insulating film is formed on the walls of trenches to extend onto a major surface of a semiconductor substrate, and gates are formed so as to fill up the trenches and to extend onto the gate insulating film on the major surface of the semiconductor substrate. The gate insulating film is formed so that the thickness of a portion thereof formed on the major surface of the semiconductor substrate is greater than that of a portion thereof formed on the walls of the trenches to narrow portions of the gates corresponding to the tops of the trenches.
