-Epi-layer surface silicon dioxide gate oxide 8, be positioned at silicon dioxide gate oxide 8 surface gate electrode 9, be positioned at the metallization anode 10 of top device.Said metallization anode 10 is covered in the device top layer, contacts with gate electrode 9 with N type heavily doped region 7, and contacts with dark P tagma 4 through shallow slot metal 6; N between said two dark P tagmas 4
-Evenly distribute to such an extent that some P type bars 5 that are parallel to the entire device Width are arranged in the epitaxial loayer 3; The afterbody of said P type bar 5 promptly links to each other with dark P tagma 4 with the mode of broadening at the back of entire device or links to each other with metallization anode 10 through the shallow slot metal 6 ' that is positioned at the entire device back, to realize P type bar 5 and P tagma 4 equipotentials deeply.
The shallow slot metal-oxide-semiconductor diode that contains the P island of telling, as shown in Figure 2 along the longitudinal sectional drawing of AA ' line among Fig. 1.Its physical structure up is metallization negative electrode 1, N type heavy doping monocrystalline substrate 2, N from bottom successively
-Epitaxial loayer 3, be positioned at N
-The N type heavily doped region 7 of two dark P tagmas 4 of both sides, epitaxial loayer 3 top, P type bar (P island) 5, the shallow slot metal 6 that links to each other with dark P tagma 4, shallow slot metal 6 inboards, silicon dioxide gate oxide 8, gate electrode 9, metallization anode 10.Metallization anode 10 and dark P tagma 4, shallow slot metal 6, N type heavily doped region 7 and gate electrode 9 short circuits connect the anode potential of external circuit.Metallization anode 10 and dark P tagma 4 link to each other through shallow slot metal 6, and the anode 10 that metallizes has covered gate electrode 9, shallow slot metal 6 and N type heavily doped region 7.Dark P tagma 4, P island 5 and the N-epitaxial loayer between it 3 constitute a plurality of jfet structures (shown in 11).Metallize anode when external anode potential, N type heavily doped region 7, silicon dioxide gate oxide 8, polysilicon gate 9 and N
-The upper surface of epitaxial loayer 3 constitutes electron accumulation layer structure (shown in 12).
The shallow slot metal-oxide-semiconductor diode that contains the P island of telling, the metallization anode has been linked in the specific region on its P island, to realize and dark P tagma equipotential.Shown in Fig. 3 .1 or Fig. 3 .2, the mode that the P island is connected to the metallization anode has two kinds along the longitudinal sectional drawing of BB ' line among Fig. 1: the one, P type bar afterbody at the back of entire device broadening, directly link to each other (shown in Fig. 3 .1) with dark P tagma 4; The 2nd, the shallow slot metal 6 ' of the afterbody of P type bar through being positioned at the entire device back link to each other with metallization anode 10 (shown in Fig. 3 .2).The shallow slot metal 6 ' that wherein is positioned at the entire device back can adopt identical processing step to make with positive shallow slot metal 6.
The shallow slot metal-oxide-semiconductor diode operation principle on the P of containing of the present invention island: when external voltage is zero; Two dark P tagmas 4; P island 5 and N-epitaxial loayer therebetween 3 constitute a plurality of jfet structures; Each junction field tubular construction just exhausts well under the effect of PN junction internal electric field entirely, makes device be normal pass type device.During external positive voltage, the PN junction depletion region narrows down, and junction field effect transistor is opened, and contains the shallow slot MOS diode forward conduction on P island.Current path sketch map when Fig. 5 .1 has provided the shallow slot MOS diode conducting that contains the P island, electronics arrive N type heavily doped region from negative electrode three the JFET districts that under electric field action, flow through through electron accumulation layer.Current path sketch map when Fig. 5 .2 has provided the shallow slot burning diode forward conducting that does not contain the P island, electronics are from the negative electrode JFET district that under electric field action, flows through, through thin gate oxide electron accumulation layer arrival N type heavily doped region down.Because the introducing on P island can assist dark P-structure to exhaust N
-Epitaxial loayer, therefore the width of dark P-structure of the present invention has shortened, and promptly the spacing between two dark P-structure is wideer.
Shown in Fig. 6 .1 and Fig. 6 .2, the spacing of establishing between shallow slot metal-oxide-semiconductor diode (Fig. 6 .1) that contains the P island and the dark P tagma of the shallow slot metal oxide layer semiconductor diode (Fig. 6 .2) that does not contain the P island is respectively L1 and L2, and P island width is L3.It is all identical that the dark P tagma structure of two kinds of devices is removed different other parameters of width, therefore dark P tagma and N
-The PN junction that epitaxial loayer forms is positioned at N when adding the same electrical pressure
-Depletion width in the district is identical, establishes that this width of depletion region is W1 when adding no-voltage.The PN junction that P island and N-epitaxial loayer constitute is positioned at N when adding no-voltage
-Depletion width in the district is W2.When adding positive forward voltage, be positioned at N
-Depletion width in the district corresponds to W1 ', W2 '.
Two kinds of structures are all to satisfy the N-district at 0 o'clock just to exhaust entirely at applied voltage, are normal pass type device to guarantee device.Then have: L1=2W1+4W2+2L3, L2=2W1.
Containing the channel width that can flow through electric current in the shallow slot metal-oxide-semiconductor diode on P island when adding positive voltage is:
L1-2L3-2W1’-4W2’=L2-2W1’+4(W2-W2’);
And the channel width that does not contain the shallow slot metal-oxide-semiconductor diode on P island when adding positive voltage is: L2-2W1 ';
Obviously, for the device of same unit size, add under the positive voltage identical, the channel width of shallow slot metal-oxide-semiconductor diode that contains the P island is greater than the channel width of the shallow slot metal-oxide-semiconductor diode that does not contain the P island.Therefore the shallow slot metal-oxide-semiconductor diode that contains the P island has stronger current handling capability, thereby can obtain lower conduction voltage drop.
When metallization anode 10 added reverse voltage with respect to metallization negative electrode 1, the conducting channel of jfet structure 11 was continued to increase reverse voltage by pinch off, and depletion layer is to the N of metallization negative electrode 1 one sides
- Epitaxial loayer 3 expansions, the reverse voltage of increase is mainly by low-doped N
