Abstract

A manufacturing process and design structure for a super self-aligned trench power MOSFET. A plurality of super self-aligned trenches of different depths are formed into the body layer and epitaxial layers, preferably by using a multilayer stack of dielectric material etched to form spacers. Respective trenches contain gate conductors, body-contact conductors, and preferably a third trench containing a recessed field plate. This results in a MOSFET structure having high cell density and low gate charges and gate-drain charges.
