  • Publication number: 20230124282
    Abstract: A VDMOS device and a fabrication method thereof are provided. The device includes unit cells which jointly form a cellular structure. The cellular structure includes spaced-apart source regions and surrounding gate regions. Some gate regions overlap to form gate intersections comprising separation regions; the others form non-intersecting gate regions. Each unit cell has a JFET region corresponding in position to one non-intersecting gate region and a JFET shielding region corresponding in position to one gate intersection. The difference in doping concentrations of different types of dopants in the JFET shielding region surpasses difference in doping concentrations in the JFET regions and therefore depletion layers disposed along diagonals of the gate intersections expand and merge more easily, thereby increasing breakdown voltage along the diagonals. Therefore, the device exhibits enhanced voltage tolerance and stability.
