Abstract: An object of this invention is to provide a Schottky diode structure to increase the contact area at a Schottky junction between the Schottky Barrier metal and a semiconductor substrate. The larger contact area of the Schottky junction is, the lower of the forward voltage drop across the Schottky diode will be, thereby improving the performance and efficiency of the Schottky diode. The present invention also discloses that a plurality of trenches with adjacent top mesas can be used to form a Schottky diode with even larger contact area, wherein the trenches are built using the isolation area between two cells of MOSFET with minimum extra overhead by shrinking the dimension of pitch between two trenches.

The power semiconductor device includes a substrate, at least a trench transistor, a conductive layer, a metal contact plug, an insulating layer, an interlayer dielectric, a gate metal layer, and a source metal layer.

Accordingly, the present invention can provide a lower gate input resistance without dividing the source metal layer, so the source metal layer can have a larger and complete area for the following packaging and bonding process.
