Method Of Making A Semiconductor Device With A Low Permittivity Region
A method of making a semiconductor device ( ) having a low permittivity region ( ) includes forming a first layer ( ) over a surface of a trench ( ), and etching through an opening ( ) in the first layer that is smaller than a width (W ) of the trench to remove a first material ( ) from the trench. A second material ( ) is deposited to plug the opening to seal an air pocket ( ) in the trench. The low permittivity region features air pockets with a high volume because the small size of the opening allows the second material to plug the trench without accumulating significantly in the trench.

Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a plate structure over an isolation region. A drain electrode electrically connected to a drift region underlying the isolation region is formed, wherein the drain electrode is separated from a first location of the plate structure by a first distance along a central axis of an active area of the semiconductor device in a direction of a current flow between a source and a drain of the semiconductor device, the drain electrode is separated from a second location of the plate structure by a second distance along a line parallel to the central axis and within the active area. The first distance is less than the second distance.
