Abstract
In one general aspect, an apparatus can include a first trench oxide disposed within a first trench of an epitaxial layer and having a trench bottom oxide disposed below a gate portion of the first trench oxide. The apparatus can include a second trench disposed lateral to the first trench. The trench bottom oxide portion of the first oxide can have a thickness greater than a distance within the epitaxial layer from the first trench to the second trench.
