Abstract

A semiconductor Schottky rectifier built in an epitaxial semiconductor layer over a substrate has an anode structure and a cathode structure extending from the surface of the epitaxial layer. The cathode contact structure has a trench structure near the epi-layer and a vertical sidewall surface covered with a gate oxide layer. The cathode structure further comprises a polysilicon element adjacent to the gate oxide layer.
