Abstract

Disclosed is a power device, such as a power MOSFET, and methods for fabricating same. The device includes a field plate trench. The device further includes first and second trench dielectrics inside the field plate trench. The device also includes a field plate situated over the first trench dielectric and within the second trench dielectric. A combined thickness of the first and second trench dielectrics at a bottom of the field plate trench is greater than a sidewall thickness of the second trench dielectric.
