A high-voltage super junction device is disclosed. The device includes a semiconductor substrate region having a first conductivity type and having neighboring trenches disposed therein. The neighboring trenches each have trench sidewalls and a trench bottom surface. A region having a second conductivity type is disposed in or adjacent to a trench and meets the semiconductor substrate region at a p-n junction. A gate electrode is formed on the semiconductor substrate region and is electrically isolated from the semiconductor substrate region by a gate dielectric. A body region having the second conductivity type is disposed on opposite sides of the gate electrode near a surface of the semiconductor substrate. A source region having the first conductivity type is disposed within in the body region on opposite sides of the gate electrode near the surface of the semiconductor substrate.
