A method for forming a
semiconductor structure, the method comprising: providing a substrate, the substrate having a source region and a drain region formed therein, a drift region formed in the substrate between the source region and the drain region, the drift region being in contact with the drain region, a gate structure formed on a top of the substrate at an interface of the source region and the drift region; forming a first
dielectric layer on the top of the substrate at the source region, the drain region and the drift region, the first
dielectric layer also covering sidewalls of the gate structure; forming a recess in a middle region of a top surface of the first
dielectric layer at the drift region; after forming the recess, forming a first trench in a portion of the first
dielectric layer at the drift region, the first trench being in communication with the recess, forming a second trench through the first
dielectric layer at the source region and the drain region; forming a field plate
contact hole in the first trench, the field plate
contact hole covering the first
dielectric layer at a bottom of the first trench, forming an
interconnection via structure in the second trench, the
interconnection via structure being in
electrical connection with the source region and the drain region. The thickness uniformity of the first dielectric layer below the bottom of the first trench is improved.
