Description

[0002] Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) can be widely used in analog and digital circuits. Currently, there are two main types of MOSFET structures: trench gate type and planar type. Among them, trench gate MOSFET uses the trench gate to effectively increase the channel density. However, when the device withstands voltage, the curvature effect causes extremely high peak electric fields at the corners of the gate dielectric layer, which reduces the reliability of the gate dielectric layer after long-term operation. In order to reduce the electric field strength near the gate dielectric layer when the device is blocked and improve the reliability of the gate dielectric layer, a common solution is to sacrifice the channel on one side of the trench gate and form a grounded P-type shielding region at the bottom of the trench, forming a half-enclosed MOSFET.
