As shown in fig. 13, in the steps of the method for manufacturing a field effect transistor with an electrode portion sequentially covered by an oxide layer and a nitride layer according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 3, step S101 is first performed to provide a semiconductor substrate 11, and an epitaxial layer 12 is formed on the semiconductor substrate 11 (the forming method is prior art, and the forming method will not be described again. The semiconductor substrate 11 is generally doped with an ion concentration (e.g., N type), the epitaxial layer 12 is also generally doped with an ion concentration (e.g., N type), and the ion concentration of the epitaxial layer 12 is lower than that of the semiconductor substrate 11.
After step S101, step S102 is performed to etch at least one trench 121 (only one trench 121 is shown in fig. 4) extending in a vertical direction L in the epitaxial layer 12, where the trench 121 has a trench sidewall 1211 and a trench bottom 1212, and in the etching method, as shown in fig. 4, a hard mask 100 (the material is prior art and is not described again) is formed on the epitaxial layer 12, and then a photoresist layer 200 (the material is prior art and is not described again) is formed on the hard mask 100, and then the trench 121 is etched (which etching is prior art and which etching is used in the portion of "etching" mentioned below is not described again). In addition, it should be noted that the trench sidewall 1211 in the preferred embodiment of the present invention refers to the sidewall of the entire trench 121, i.e., if viewed from the above, the sidewall is integral, rather than having two sidewalls as viewed from the cross-sectional view; in other embodiments, the trench may have two trench sidewalls 1211 themselves, as described herein.
As shown in fig. 5 and fig. 6, step S103 is performed to form a first oxide layer (oxidation)400 on the surface of the epitaxial layer 12, the trench sidewall 1211 and the trench bottom 1212 of the trench 121, and a first nitride layer (nitride) 500 is formed on the first oxide layer 400, wherein the materials of the first oxide layer 400 and the first nitride layer 500 are conventional and will not be described again.
Specifically, in step S103, a first sub-oxide layer 4001 is formed on the surface of the epitaxial layer 12, the trench sidewall 1211 and the trench bottom 1212 of the trench 121, and a second sub-oxide layer 4002 is formed on the first sub-oxide layer 4001, so that the first oxide layer 400 is formed by the second sub-oxide layer 4002 and the first sub-oxide layer 4001.
As shown in fig. 6, step S104 is performed to form a second oxide layer 600 on the first nitride layer 500, and a first polysilicon layer (polysilicon) 700 with an approximate T-shape is formed on the second oxide layer 600, and similarly, the materials of the second oxide layer 600 and the first polysilicon layer (polysilicon) 700 are also the prior art and will not be described again.
As shown in fig. 7, step S105 is performed to etch a portion of the first polysilicon layer 700, so that the remaining first polysilicon layer 700 forms an electrode portion 13 in the trench 121. Then, step S106 is performed to form a third oxide layer (oxidation)800 on the electrode portion 13 and the second oxide layer 600, and similarly, the material of the third oxide layer 800 is also the prior art and is not described again.
As shown in fig. 8, step S107 is performed to etch a portion of the second oxide layer 600 and the third oxide layer 800, so that the remaining second oxide layer 600 and the remaining third oxide layer 800 form a cladding oxide layer 14 covering the electrode portion 13. Then, step S108 is performed to form a second nitride layer (nitride) 900 on the cap oxide layer 14 and the first nitride layer 500, and the material of the second nitride layer 900 is also conventional and will not be described again.
As shown in fig. 9, step S109 is performed to etch a portion of the first nitride layer 500 and the second nitride layer 900, so that the remaining first nitride layer 500 and the remaining second nitride layer 900 form a covering nitride layer 15 covering the covering oxide layer 14 in the trench 121. Then, step S110 is performed to etch a portion of the first oxide layer 400, so that the remaining first oxide layer 400 forms a remaining oxide layer 16 in the trench 121, and the remaining oxide layer 16 has a gradually recessed structure 161 gradually recessed from the periphery toward the center of the trench 121.
As shown in fig. 10 and 11, step S111 is performed to form a gate oxide layer 17 on the trench sidewall 1211, the covering nitride layer 15 and the residual oxide layer 16, and form a gate portion 18 on the gate oxide layer 17, wherein the gate portion 18 is sequentially spaced from the electrode portion 13 by the gate oxide layer 17, the covering nitride layer 15 and the covering oxide layer 14, and the gate oxide layer 17 fills the tapered recess structure 161.
In addition, in the method for forming the gate portion 18, a second polysilicon layer 1000 is formed on the gate oxide layer 17, and a portion of the second polysilicon layer 1000 is etched, so that a gate portion 18 is formed in the trench 121 by the remaining second polysilicon layer 1000, thereby forming the gate portion 18 on the gate oxide layer 17.
As shown in fig. 11, step S112 is performed to sequentially form a body region (P-body)19 and a source region (N +)20 in the epitaxial layer 12 adjacent to the gate portion 18, which is not described in detail. The body region 19 is separated from the gate portion 18 by the gate oxide layer 17, the source region 20 is separated from the gate portion 18 by the gate oxide layer 17, and then step S113 is performed to form an Interlayer Dielectric (ILD) 21 covering the source region 20 and the gate portion 18.
As shown in fig. 12, a mask layer 1100 is formed on the interlayer dielectric layer 21, and after etching a portion of the body region 19 and the source region 20, the mask layer 1100 is removed.
As shown in fig. 13, step S114 is finally performed to form a source electrode 22 covering the body region 19 and the interlayer dielectric layer 21 and contacting the source region 20, thereby manufacturing the field effect transistor 1 of the preferred embodiment of the present invention in which the electrode portion is sequentially covered with the oxide layer and the nitride layer, wherein the source electrode 22 has an approximately n-shaped structure.
That is, in the field effect transistor 1 of the preferred embodiment of the present invention in which the electrode portions are sequentially covered with the oxide layer and the nitride layer, the epitaxial layer 12 is formed on the semiconductor substrate 11, the residual oxide layer 16 is located on the trench sidewall 1211 and the trench bottom 1212, and the electrode portion 13 is formed in the trench 121. The covering oxide layer 14 is located in the trench 121 and covers the electrode portion 13, and the covering nitride layer 15 is located in the trench 121, covers the covering oxide layer 14, and is partially covered by the residual oxide layer 16.
The gate oxide layer 17 is located on the trench sidewall 1211, the covering nitride layer 15 and the residual oxide layer 16, and the gate portion 18 is located on the gate oxide layer 17 and is sequentially spaced from the electrode portion 13 by the gate oxide layer 17, the covering nitride layer 15 and the covering oxide layer 14.
Body region 19 and source region 20 are disposed on epitaxial layer 12 adjacent to gate portion 18 and spaced apart from gate portion 18 by gate oxide 17. An interlayer dielectric layer 21 covers the source region 20 and the gate portion 18, and a source electrode 22 covers the body region 19 and the interlayer dielectric layer 21 and contacts the source region 20.
Referring to fig. 14 and 15 together, fig. 14 shows a simulated structure of a field effect transistor in the prior art, and fig. 15 shows a simulated structure of a field effect transistor in which an electrode portion is sequentially coated with an oxide layer and a nitride layer according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
As shown, after dc simulation of the structure of fig. 14 and 15 with software, the present invention can obtain the following values:
Figure GDA0002280459110000091
