Abstract

A semiconductor device comprises a substrate, a semiconductor layer formed on the substrate; and a high-voltage termination. The high-voltage termination includes a plurality of floating field rings, a deep trench and a dielectric material is disposed within the deep trench. The plurality of floating field rings are formed in the semiconductor layer and respectively disposed around a region of the semiconductor layer. The deep trench is formed in the semiconductor layer and concentrically disposed around an outermost floating field ring of the plurality of floating field rings. The high-voltage termination may also include a field plate disposed over the floating field rings, the deep trench, or both.
