ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a MOS transistor device of the trench type, in which, in a semiconductor region of a first conductivity type, within a deep gate trench extending in the vertical direction of the semiconductor region, a vertical gate electrode and a gate oxide with a field plate step insulating the latter are formed and, in an adjoining mesa region outside and laterally with respect to the deep trench, at the upper section thereof, a source electrode region of the first conductivity type and a body region of a second conductivity type with one or a plurality of assigned body contact are formed, a drain electrode region of the first conductivity type lying opposite the deep trench in the vertical direction. The MOS transistor has a deep body reinforcement of the second conductivity type below the body region at the location of the body contact, said body reinforcement lying deeper than the field plate step.
