Abstract A low specific on-resistance (RS,on) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) trench MOSFET (metal–oxide–semiconductor–field–effect–transistor) with a reduced cell pitch is proposed. The lateral MOSFET features multiple trenches: two oxide trenches in the drift region and a trench gate extended to the buried oxide (BOX) (SOI MT MOSFET). Firstly, the oxide trenches increase the average electric field strength along the x direction due to lower permittivity of oxide compared with that of Si; secondly, the oxide trenches cause multiple-directional depletion, which improves the electric field distribution and enhances the reduced surface field (RESURF) effect in the SOI layer. Both of them result in a high breakdown voltage (BV). Thirdly, the oxide trenches cause the drift region to be folded in the vertical direction, leading to a shortened cell pitch and a reduced RS,on. Fourthly, the trench gate extended to the BOX further reduces RS,on, owing to the electron accumulation layer. The BV of the MT MOSFET increases from 309 V for a conventional SOI lateral double diffused metal–oxide semiconductor (LDMOS) to 632 V at the same half cell pitch of 21.5 μm, and RS,on decreases from 419 mΩ·cm2 to 36.6 mΩ·cm2. The proposed structure can also help to dramatically reduce the cell pitch at the same breakdown voltage.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
