Please refer to simultaneously Fig. 2 A, this groove 140 has at least two rectangular districts 142 and an ecotone 144.The groove width w1 in rectangular district 142 is less than the groove width w2 of ecotone 144.Subsequently, shown in Fig. 2 C, form a gate dielectric 150 in the inner surface of groove 140.Next, shown in Fig. 2 D, deposit one first polysilicon layer 160 in groove 140.Because the groove width w1 in rectangular district 142 is less than the groove width w2 of ecotone 144, therefore, suitably the thickness of control the first polysilicon layer 160 can make the first polysilicon layer 160 roughly fill up rectangular district 142, but can produce a significant depressions corresponding to ecotone 144 centre.
Next, shown in Fig. 2 E, utilize anisotropic etching technology etching the first polysilicon layer 160.Because the first polysilicon layer 160 corresponding to ecotone 144 centre has a significant depressions, therefore, suitably control the parameter of etch process, can make the channel bottom in rectangular district 142 be entirely polysilicon structure 162 and cover, but then be formed with the bottom that a window 164 exposes groove to the open air in the polysilicon structure 162 in ecotone 144.
Subsequently, shown in Fig. 2 F, by this polysilicon structure 162, implant the beneath trenches that the second conductivity type is doped into ecotone 144 in the ion cloth mode of planting, the doped region 165b that forms one second conductivity type is adjacent to ecotone 144.With regard to a preferred embodiment, this ion cloth is planted step and can directly be utilized the polysilicon structure 162 of etching the first polysilicon layer 160 formation to be shielding, and need not use extra light shield.Again, plant step through this ion cloth, except meeting forms doped region 165b in the beneath trenches of ecotone 144, also can form doped region 165a on the surface of body.But, because the conductivity type of this doped region 165a is identical with body 130, therefore, this ion cloth is planted the dopant profile that step can not affect body 130.
Then, shown in Fig. 2 G, deposit one second polysilicon layer 170 comprehensively, fill up the window 164 that is positioned at groove.Subsequently, shown in Fig. 2 H, eat-back (etch back) and remove the second unnecessary polysilicon layer 170, stay the polysilicon structure 172 that is positioned at groove as the grid of this metal-oxide half field effect transistor structure.At last, shown in Fig. 2 I and Fig. 2 J, in a plurality of source areas 180 with first conductivity type of body 130 interior formation.These source areas 180 are adjacent to the rectangular part 172a of channel grid at least.
It should be noted that shown in Fig. 2 A and Fig. 2 B the groove 140 of present embodiment has the part of level trend and the part of capwise, and defines a plurality of grids zone in body 130.180 of source areas are to be formed in these grid zones.Staggered place at groove 140 with the groove 140 of capwise of level trend is aforesaid ecotone 144, and other parts are aforesaid rectangular district 142.The vertical view of semiconductor structure thus, ecotone 144 presents a square, and its length of side is substantially equal to the width w1 in rectangular district 142.But, the present invention is not limited to this.It is quadrangle that this ecotone 144 is not limited to.As shown in Figure 5, in the fourth embodiment of the present invention, groove 440 can be divided into the part of three different trends, and defines a plurality of triangles zone in body 430.The source area (not shown) then is to be formed in this triangle zone.The ecotone 444 of this groove 440 presents a regular hexagon.This hexagonal length of side is substantially equal to the width w3 in rectangular district 442.The width w4 of ecotone 444 is greater than the width w3 in rectangular district 442.
In the aforementioned embodiment, the external form of ecotone 144,444 is to be subject to the arrangement mode of groove 140 and to determine fully, and the width w2.w4 of ecotone 144,444 and the width w1 in rectangular district 142,442, w3 have a proportionate relationship.Shown in Fig. 2 A, in the first embodiment of the present invention, groove 140 has the part of capwise and the part of level trend, thereby the ecotone 144 that interlocks and to present square.Again, as shown in Figure 5, in the 4th embodiment of the present invention, groove 440 is divided into the part of three different trends, to present orthohexagonal ecotone 444 and interlock.But, the present invention is not limited to this.As shown in Figure 6, in the fifth embodiment of the present invention, the external form of ecotone 544 is not the arrangement mode that depends on groove 540 fully, and the width w6 of ecotone 544 is not the width w5 that depends on rectangular district 542 fully yet.Basically, need only the width w6 of formed ecotone 544 greater than the width w5 in rectangular district 542.
