Description

A kind of trench semiconductor power device
Technical field
The present invention relates to trench semiconductor power device technology field; Exactly relate to a kind of (Silicon-on-insulator) MOSFET lateral (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect-Transistor, metal-oxide semiconductor fieldeffect transistor) device that is used for power integrated circuit or radio-frequency power integrated circuit.
Background technology
SOI introduces dielectric buried layer between top layer semiconductor (being called active layer) and substrate layer (can be semiconductor or dielectric), with semiconductor device or circuit production in active layer.Usually adopt isolation channel 30 to isolate between integrated circuit mesohigh device, the low-voltage circuit, then isolate (as shown in Figure 1) between active layer 3 and the substrate layer 1 by dielectric layer 2.Therefore; With body silicon (semiconductor) compared with techniques, it is little that the SOI technology has ghost effect, and leakage current is little; Integrated level is high, capability of resistance to radiation strong and do not have advantage such as controllable silicon self-locking effect, obtains extensive concern and application in fields such as high speed, high temperature, low-power consumption and radioresistances.
The key of SOI power integrated circuit technology is the effective isolation that realizes between high withstand voltage, low-power consumption and high voltage unit and the low voltage unit.The SOI transversal device; Like LDMOSFET (Lateral Double-diffused Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect-Transistor LDMOSFET; The lateral double diffusion metal oxide field-effect transistor) is convenient to the core devices that integrated and relatively low conducting resistance becomes the SOI power integrated circuit because of it, in application such as plasma panel, motor driven, automotive electronics, portable power source management product and PC, gains great popularity.Simultaneously; Compare to VDMOSFET (Vertical Double-diffused Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect-Transistor VDMOS; The vertical DMOS field-effect transistor); The switching speed that (Silicon-on-insulator) MOSFET lateral is higher makes it be widely used in RF application.
For conventional LDMOSFET device, drift region length increases with the rising of device electric breakdown strength is dull.This not only makes, and the chip area of device (or circuit) increases, cost increases, and is unfavorable for miniaturization.Even more serious is, the conducting resistance of device increases with the increase of drift region length (or device withstand voltage) that (relational expression of conducting resistance and device withstand voltage can be expressed as: Ron ∝ BV 2.5, wherein BV is a device withstand voltage, Ron is a conducting resistance), the increase of conducting resistance causes power consumption sharply to increase, and devices switch speed also decreases.
Compare with the MOSFET of planar gate structure, have the MOSFET of slot grid structure, can increase packaging density on the one hand, thereby improve gully density and current density.The length of the raceway groove of groove gate MOSFET does not receive the restriction of photoetching process on the other hand, and raceway groove can be done shortlyer, thereby reduces conducting resistance.More than 2 MOSFET electric current ability to bears that all increase slot grid structure.Moreover the groove gate MOSFET can be avoided JFET (Junction Field-Effect-Transistor, junction field effect transistor) effect and latch up effect.
In order to overcome the problem that conventional LDMOSFET above-mentioned exists, the researcher utilizes the advantage of groove gate MOSFET in the industry, has proposed the SOI LDMOSFET device architecture based on the groove technology.Document (Won-So Son; Young-Ho Sohn; Sie-Young Choi; [Effects of a trench under the gate in high voltage RESURF LDMOSFET for SOI power integrated circuits] Solid-State Electronics 48 (2004) 1629 – 1635) proposition has the RESURF LDMOSFET of groove, and its device architecture is as shown in Figure 2.This device is with near the drift region between the drain region oxide groove 31 introducing gate electrode G ends.When doping content was too high, oxide groove 31 reduced the high electric field of silicon face under the gate electrode G end, avoided puncturing in advance here, and reduced the surface field peak value at edge, drain region, thereby on the basis that reduces conducting resistance, improve device withstand voltage.Length is 16 μ m to this device in the drift region, the highest withstand voltage 356V of reaching when dielectric buried layer 2 is respectively 3 μ m and 8 μ m with active layer 3 thickness.Its experimental result of document report is withstand voltage to be 352V, and conduction resistance is about 18.8 m Ω cm 2The LDMOSFET of this class formation is when 250V, and conduction resistance is about 9 m Ω cm 2It is thus clear that the effect of this structure reduction drift region length and conduction resistance is very limited.
Document Naoto Fujishima and C. Andre T. Salama; [A trench lateral power MOSFET using self-aligned trench bottom contact holes] IEDM 1997; Among the 359-362 drain electrode D and gate electrode G are designed in the groove of same notch cuttype shape, and the latter half of groove (near the drain region) sidewall has thick oxide layers 32.Be referred to as the grooved lateral direction power MOSFET (Trench Lateral Power MOSFET with Trench Bottom Drain Contact) that trench bottom has drain contact in the literary composition, be called TLPM/D MOSFET, device architecture is as shown in Figure 3.United States Patent (USP) (US 7005352B2; 2006.2.28; [trench-type MOSFET having a reduced device pitch and on-resistance]) source electrode S and gate electrode G are designed in same groove, be called TLPM/S MOSFET, structure is as shown in Figure 4.More than two kinds of structures all be to adopt trench structure to reduce lateral device dimensions (or chip area); And then reduce the conducting resistance of device and keep higher withstand voltage; The former is more suitable for the grooved low-resistance MOSFET of the withstand voltage 80V of being higher than; The latter is more suitable for the grooved low-resistance small size MOSFET of the withstand voltage 80V of being lower than, and technology is simpler than the former.But for the withstand voltage TLPM/D MOSFET that surpasses 100V, thick oxide layers 32 thickness of groove lower part increase on the one hand, have weakened the advantage of reduction of device lateral dimension; On the other hand, the degree of depth of groove is produced on technology difficulty increase in the same dark and narrow groove with withstand voltage increase with drain electrode and gate electrode.More than two kinds of structures all need drain electrode and gate electrode or source electrode and gate electrode are produced in the same groove; Its technology difficulty increases with the withstand voltage raising degree of depth of the groove (increase), and the effect that this structure reduces lateral device dimensions weakens with withstand voltage rising.United States Patent (USP) (US 2007/0298562A1; 2007.12.27; [method of manufacturing a semiconductor integrated circuit device]) TLPM/S device above-mentioned is used for integrated circuit; But must adopt PN junction to isolate and shallow-trench isolation between each device in the integrated circuit, and with the source electrode of high-voltage MOSFET and gate designs in same groove, technology is complicacy.
