V > Vc
For applied voltages V > Vc, vertically oriented electric field Ev begins to grow in depletion region.
Ev spatially uniform since space charge compensated for by Ec. Ev V/W for V >> Vc.
Doping level Nd in n-type drift region can be much greater than in drift region of conventional
VDMOS drift region of similar BVBD capability.
At breakdown Ev = EBD 300 kV/cm ; V = BVBD = EBDW
