Described electrode layer 305 is formed in the surface of described first insulating barrier 301, second insulating barrier 303 and gate insulation layer 304.The material of described electrode layer 305 is polysilicon.
Described grinding barrier layer 307 is formed in described electrode layer 305 surface, and the electrode layer 305 for the protection of first area I is not damaged by the first grinding and the second grinding in subsequent process; The material on described grinding barrier layer 307 is silicon nitride, and the formation process on described grinding barrier layer 307 is depositing operation, such as physics or chemical deposition; Because described gate insulation layer 304 surface is lower than described first insulating barrier 301 and the second insulating barrier 303 surface, the surface, grinding barrier layer 307 being positioned at the 3rd region III therefore adopting depositing operation to be formed is lower than the surface, grinding barrier layer 307 of described first area I and second area II; Consider that described grinding barrier layer 307 for grinding as first and the second stop-layer ground in subsequent process, described grinding barrier layer 307 is too thin, is not enough to the stop-layer that grinds as follow-up first time or is not enough to the stop-layer that grinds as follow-up second time; Described grinding barrier layer 307 is too thick, is unfavorable for saving the process time.Therefore, in an embodiment of the present invention, the thickness on described grinding barrier layer 307 is

It should be noted that, for forming electric capacity in subsequent process, needing the separator 309 removing part the 3rd region III.The inventor of the embodiment of the present invention finds after deliberation, if directly adopt etching method to remove the separator 309 of the described 3rd region III of part, can pit be there is in the isolated material surface in described opening 311, affect the stability of power metal-oxide field effect transistor, adopt the method for grinding to form electric capacity and then can not there are the problems referred to above.Therefore, in an embodiment of the present invention, electric capacity can also be formed by the follow-up first grinding, the second grinding.
Perform step S203, please refer to Fig. 6, perform the first grinding, removal unit divides the grinding barrier layer 307 of the described first area I of separator 309, part and the grinding barrier layer 307 of second area II, exposes the electrode layer 305 of described second area II.
Because first insulating barrier 301 of first area I and second insulating barrier 303 of second area II have different live widths, cover the electrode layer 305 of the first insulating barrier 301, the live width on grinding barrier layer 307 is also different from the electrode layer 305 of covering second insulating barrier 303, the live width on grinding barrier layer 307, and the surface on the grinding barrier layer 307 of described 3rd region III is lower than the surface on the grinding barrier layer 307 of described first area I and second area II, therefore when execution first is ground, the grinding rate on the grinding barrier layer 307 of first area I is different from the grinding rate on the grinding barrier layer 307 of second area II.
When considering that follow-up execution second is ground, for exposing the second insulating barrier, the grinding barrier layer 307 of part first area I inevitably also can be removed.Therefore, after executing the first grinding, the thickness on the grinding barrier layer 307 of described first area I can not be too little.The thickness on the grinding barrier layer 307 of described first area I is too little, so when follow-up execution second is ground, the grinding barrier layer 307 of described first area I is completely removed, the electrode layer 305 of described first area I will be destroyed, thus affects the stability of power metal-oxide field effect transistor.Therefore, the inventor of the embodiment of the present invention finds after a large amount of experimental studies, and after executing described first grinding, the thickness on the grinding barrier layer 307 of described first area I is for being greater than
time, the electrode layer 305 not destroying first area I during the second grinding can be avoided.
In the present embodiment, the concrete steps of the first grinding are: adopt the first ground slurry to grind described separator 309 and grinding barrier layer 307, described first ground slurry to the grinding rate of separator 309 is
to the grinding rate on grinding barrier layer 307 be
when exposing the electrode layer 305 of second area II, described first grinding terminates, and now the grinding barrier layer 307 of described first area I also has remaining, and thickness is greater than

After executing described first grinding, perform the second grinding.The second ground slurry is adopted when described second grinding.
Consider that the electrode layer 305 removing second area II is ground in execution second; when exposing the second insulating barrier 303; inevitably remove the grinding barrier layer 307 of part first area I, and the grinding barrier layer 307 of described first area I is not destroyed for the protection of the electrode layer 305 of first area I.Therefore, in an embodiment of the present invention, need to select the large ground slurry of grinding selectivity ratio between electrode layer 305 and grinding barrier layer 307 as the second ground slurry, namely described second ground slurry is when grinding electrode layer 305 of the same area and grinding barrier layer 307, and the thickness grinding the electrode layer 305 of removal in same time is greater than the thickness on the grinding barrier layer 307 of removal; And the live width considering first area I is greater than the live width of second area II, also can have a certain impact to the grinding rate that the grinding barrier layer 307 of described first area I and the electrode layer 305 of described second area II are carried out when second time is ground, after terminating for making second time grinding, the electrode layer 305 of described first area I does not wreck, and expose the second insulating barrier 303, the grinding selectivity ratio of the second ground slurry usually chosen between electrode layer 305 and grinding barrier layer 307 is greater than 30: 1.
The concrete steps of described second grinding are: grind the grinding barrier layer 307 of described first area I, the electrode layer 305 of described second area II and the separator 309 of the 3rd region III, until expose second insulating barrier 303 of described second area II.
After executing described second grinding, expose described second insulating barrier 303, described first area I also remains part grinding barrier layer 307.The inventor of the embodiment of the present invention finds after experimental study repeatedly, and the thickness when described part grinding barrier layer is greater than
time, can effectively protect the electrode layer 305 of described first area I not to be destroyed, and when the thickness of described second insulating barrier 303 is greater than
time, the good stability of power metal-oxide field effect transistor.
It should be noted that, after the second grinding, also there is the separator 309 of skim in the surface of described 3rd region III.For forming electric capacity in described opening 311, in subsequent technique, the separator 309 of described skim can be removed by the method for wet etching.In an embodiment of the present invention, the forming step of described electric capacity is: adopt hydrofluoric acid to remove the separator 309 of described skim; Then hot phosphoric acid is adopted to remove grinding barrier layer 307.Isolated material surfacing in described opening 311, the good stability of the described electric capacity of formation, can not have influence on the yield of power metal-oxide field effect transistor.
After above-mentioned steps completes, completing of embodiments of the invention power metal-oxide field effect transistor.
