Background
Shielded gate trench field effect transistors SGT have been widely used in important low voltage areas such as power management. This is because the SGT has a high channel density and a good charge compensation effect. In addition, the shielding gate structure effectively isolates the coupling between the metal gate and the drain, thereby remarkably reducing the transmission capacitance. This enables the SGT to have lower specific on-resistance, less conduction and switching losses, and higher operating frequency.
In the related art, in order to suppress the floating effect of the substrate region, the substrate region needs to be shorted with the N-type source region connected to the channel through the heavily doped P-type source region.
