Abstract
A trenched power semiconductor element, a trenched-gate structure thereof being in an element trench of an epitaxial layer and including at least a shielding electrode, a shielding dielectric layer, a gate electrode, an insulating separation layer, and a gate insulating layer. The shielding electrode is disposed at the bottom of the element trench, the shielding dielectric layer is disposed at a lower portion of the element trench, surrounding the shielding electrode to separate the shielding electrode from the epitaxial layer, wherein the top portion of the shielding dielectric layer includes a hole. The gate electrode is disposed above the shielding electrode, being separated from the hole at a predetermined distance through the insulating separation layer. The insulating separation layer is disposed between the shielding dielectric layer and the gate electrode layer to seal the hole.
