The intermediate sandwich layer 31 can be pre-fabricated within the base substrate and includes a polycrystalline silicon sandwich layer or a metal sandwich layer. The isolation layer 32 is made of silicon oxide or silicon carbide. The intermediate sandwich layer 31 can serve as a floating field plate for the first transistor and the second transistor, respectively, optimizing the electric field distribution, improving the breakdown voltage, reducing the surface electric field, and improving the reliability of the transistor.
