| 1. A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device comprising:
forming trenches in a first side of a semiconductor material;
forming a thick oxide layer on the trenches and on the first side;
masking a part of the first side and the trenches using a first mask and leaving another part of the first side and a part
of at least one of the trenches unmasked;
doping the semiconductor material by implantation through the thick oxide layer while the first mask is present; and
removing at least part of the thick oxide layer while the first mask remains.
