Description

A kind of grooved semiconductor rectifier and manufacture method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of semiconductor rectifier and manufacture method thereof, especially a kind of grooved semiconductor rectifier and manufacture method thereof.
Background technology
When metal contacted with semiconductor, owing to the different contact potential differences that exist of the general and semi-conductive work function of the work function of metal, the result formed potential barrier near contact-making surface, be commonly referred to Schottky barrier.Contacting with the n N-type semiconductor N with metal is example, and when metal contacted with the n N-type semiconductor N, electronics will reach a heat balance by exchange between two kinds of materials, and the Fermi level of whole knot is equated everywhere.At first, the potential barrier height that electronics is escaped and run into than escaping from semiconductor from metal, thereby, in reaching thermally equilibrated process, there is clean electron stream to flow to metal, makes the metal tape negative electricity, semiconductor tape positive electricity from semiconductor, positive charge in the semiconductor is formed by the donor ion of remaining skim positively charged after the depleted of electrons at the interface, and a such dipole layer is similar to a p+n knot.So, when the metal-semiconductor forward bias (the relative n N-type semiconductor N of metal adds positive voltage), Schottky barrier rectifier forward conduction resistance is mainly determined by the series resistance of metal-semicroductor barrier height, semiconductor regions resistance and all the other contact resistances; When the metal-semiconductor reverse bias (the relative metal of n N-type semiconductor N adds positive voltage), the depletion layer at Schottky barrier rectifier metal-semiconductor junction place broadens, the blocking-up current flowing.
Schottky barrier rectifier promptly is this unidirectional on state characteristic that has utilized Schottky barrier.Normal conditions, when rectifier has both needed forward conduction lower forward conduction voltage drop to be arranged, very high reverse blocking resistance to be arranged when needing reverse blocking again, thereby can flow through bigger forward current, can when reverse blocking, reduce reverse leakage current as much as possible again with the lower power consumption loss.
Can influence comprising of Schottky barrier rectifier forward conduction voltage drop and reverse leakage current simultaneously: the semiconductor regions resistance of schottky barrier height and Schottky barrier rectifier.Schottky barrier height is reached by selected metal material, semi-conducting material and the doping content of the contacted semiconductor regions of metal decides, usually under the prerequisite of given metal and semi-conducting material, dense more with the semiconductor regions doping content of Metal Contact, the barrier height of metal-semiconductor junction is just low more, and is just more little thereby electric current flows through the pressure drop of knot; In order to keep high anti-blocking voltage partially and little anti-leakage current partially, it is higher and thickness is thicker that the semiconductor regions of Schottky barrier rectifier typically is chosen as resistivity, to such an extent as to when the device reverse bias, electric field can be not too high partially at the interface anti-of metal-semiconductor junction, yet higher resistivity of semiconductor regions and thicker thickness can increase the rectifier forward conduction voltage drop again.Therefore, should reduce the rectifier forward conduction voltage drop as much as possible, reduce the reverse leakage current of rectifier again as far as possible, just become the important development direction of rectifier.
A kind of structure of groove-shaped Schottky barrier rectifier is disclosed among the patent CN101114670A, shown in accompanying drawing 1 among the patent CN101114670A, described groove-shaped Schottky barrier rectifier comprises the semiconductor substrate with two relative interareas, its top is the first conduction type drift region of low doping concentration, its upper surface is first interarea, the bottom of described semiconductor substrate is the first conductivity type substrate layer of high-dopant concentration, its lower surface is second interarea, one or more grooves are extended into the described first conductivity type substrate layer and are limited one or more table top portion thus by described first surface, described grooved inner surface growth has insulating barrier, be filled with first electrode in the described groove, described groove and be coated with the first metal layer above the table top portion, the first metal layer and the described first electrode ohmic contact, simultaneously with the surperficial Schottky contacts of described table top portion, form the Schottky barrier of certain altitude, the first metal layer becomes the anode electrode of Schottky barrier semiconductor device, in the described second interarea surface coverage second metal level is arranged, and forming ohmic contact with second interarea, second metal level becomes the cathode electrode of Schottky barrier semiconductor.Because the existence of groove, and gash depth vertically stretches to the substrate layer of high-dopant concentration, therefore when rectifier applies reverse voltage, there is the electric charge coupling effect between adjacent trenches, the position of maximum field intensity is displaced downwardly to trenched side-wall near zone near channel bottom by the surperficial schottky junction place in the common plane Schottky junction structure, shown in the accompanying drawing 2 of patent CN101114670A.The reduction of schottky junction place electric field strength makes reverse leakage current significantly reduce than common plane Schottky barrier semiconductor device.
Yet, because using, many rectifiers all need oppositely can bear higher blocking voltage, lower conduction voltage drop is arranged during forward conduction again, therefore, resistivity is higher, thickness is thicker if be chosen as for the first conduction type drift region in the above-mentioned patent structure, then promptly be unfavorable for reducing forward conduction voltage drop, be unfavorable for realizing stretching to the etching groove of substrate layer again; If the first conduction type drift region is chosen as less, the thinner thickness of resistivity, then can't realize high reverse blocking voltage again.

As shown in Figure 7, the reverse blocking working mechanism of grooved semiconductor rectifier of the present invention is: when the anode tap 7 of rectifier and 4 of cathode terminals apply reverse voltage, the P type embracing layer 5 of N type drift region 1 below groove 11 bottoms constitutes back-biased PN junction, because P type embracing layer 5 concentration are greater than the concentration of N type drift region 1, therefore 1 extension in the N type drift region around the PN junction that anti-depletion layer can be most partially, described bearing of trend comprises horizontal direction.When the depletion layer that PN junction produced below adjacent two groove 11 bottoms contacts in the horizontal direction, the depletion layer that is connected has promptly been blocked the top of N type drift region 1 and the bottom of N type drift region 1, has also blocked simultaneously the reverse leakage circulation flow path of 4 of the anode tap 7 of rectifier and cathode terminals.Because when the P type embracing layer 5 below not having described groove 11 bottoms, the depletion layer that the electric charge coupling that reverse withstand voltage main dependence adjacent trenches is 11 produces bears, so trench semiconductor rectifier of the present invention can reduce the size of reverse leakage current greatly on the basis of above-mentioned common trench semiconductor rectifier.
The present invention is by being provided with N type implanted layer 13 on table top portion 12 tops, and described N type implanted layer 13 doping contents are bigger, makes contacting of 8 of N type implanted layer 13 and the first metal layers form ohmic contact, the pressure drop when having reduced the semiconductor rectifier forward conduction.The bottom land of groove 11 is provided with P type embracing layer 5, reduced Xiao's semiconductor rectifier anti-leakage current and forward conduction voltage drop partially, improved the puncture voltage of semiconductor rectifier, reduced groove 11 degree of depth requirements, manufacture method is simple, easy to operate, cheap for manufacturing cost.
