1. A method of forming a shielded gate field effect transistor comprising:
- forming a plurality of active gate trenches in a silicon region;
lining lower sidewalls and bottom of the active gate trenches with a shield dielectric;
using a CMP process, filling a bottom portion of the active gate trenches with a shield electrode comprising polysilicon;
forming an interpoly dielectric (IPD) over the shield electrode in the active gate trenches;
lining upper sidewalls of the active gate trenches with a gate dielectric; and
forming a gate electrode over the IPD in an upper portion of the active gate trenches.
