Technical field
The present invention relates generally to semiconductor power device, or rather, the present invention relates to the structure with the groove nanotube of trenched side-wall and preparation method, wherein with the epitaxial loayer covering groove sidewall of doping, then filling insulating material trenched side-wall is used, to prepare the semiconductor power device of measurable charge balance neatly by the preparation technology simplified, obtain high-breakdown-voltage and very low resistance simultaneously.
Background technology
Although about the semiconductor device with vertical super-junction structures, in order to improve its electrology characteristic, existing many patent information and disclosed technological document, but in the design of super junction-semiconductor device and the association area of preparation, still there is many technical barriers and limit to preparation.Or rather, modal super-junction device comprises metal oxide semiconductor field effect tube (MOSFET) and igbt, about these devices, existing many published patent information, comprise United States Patent (USP) 5,438,215,5,216,275,4,754,310,6,828,631.Rattan flat (Fujihira), in " semiconductor super-junction device is theoretical " (Japanese Applied Physics bulletin, 36 volumes, in October, 1997,6254-6262 page) book, proposes the structure of vertical super-junction device.Or rather, rattan Fig. 2 put down in the paper delivered illustrates a kind of vertical trench MOSFET super-junction device, is cited as Fig. 1 (1A) at this.Rattan is flat also at United States Patent (USP) 6, and 097, propose a kind of vertical semiconductor devices with drift region in 063, when device is in closed mode, have drift electric current to flow through in drift region, when device is in Disconnected mode, the drift electric current in drift region exhausts.The drift region structure formed is the discrete drift region with multiple first conduction type, and the marker space of multiple second conduction type, and wherein each marker space is arranged in drift region adjacent respectively, formation p-n junction in parallel.United States Patent (USP) 6,608,350 propose a kind of vertical super-junction device, and fill in the trench with layer of dielectric material, United States Patent (USP) 5,981,996 as shown in Fig. 2 (1B), proposes a kind of vertical trench MISFET device.
But, in the structure and service behaviour of the super-junction device described in these patented technologies and disclosure, still there is many technology limitation, thus limit these devices validity in actual applications.A difficult problem and the limitation of conventional Super junction device comprise the filling of deep trench, form the size restrictions of nanotube in the trench, keep the mesa region place charge balance near terminator, undamped inductive switching (UIS) scarce capacity of super-junction device, the oscillation problem of super junction power device, because epitaxial growth speed slowly causes the high manufacturing cost of super-junction device, N and P impurity at high temperature phase counterdiffusion in super-junction structures, be difficult to integrated different device on the same chip, and the Related Technical Issues such as termination area during high-voltage applications is very large.
Therefore, in the design and preparation field of power semiconductor, be necessary the device architecture and the preparation method that propose the novelty forming power device, thus solve above-mentioned difficulties and limitation.
Summary of the invention
Therefore, one aspect of the present invention be propose a kind of novel, improvement device architecture and preparation method, by in trenched side-wall and bottom, grow a thin N-type doped epitaxial layer (such as arsenic epitaxial loayer), do not fill completely or be partially filled groove, then side grows the second epitaxial loayer on the first epitaxial layer, and fills remaining formation gap with the dielectric material of undoped, thus solution with epitaxial loayer fill deep trench time, the problem often run in traditional preparation method.Second epitaxial loayer fully can fill the bottom of all the other groove gaps, thus can in gap deposits dielectric materials more easily.
Another aspect of the present invention is, propose a kind of device architecture that is novel, improvement with super-junction structures and preparation method, utilize charge balance concept, pass through nano tube structure, reduce Rds, and element spacing is very little, to obtain the 600V MOSFET of 6 micron pitch, its conducting resistance rate is less than 9 bold and unconstrained Europe/cm 2.Which solves for during high tension apparatus for the restriction of high Rds.
Another aspect of the present invention is, propose a kind of device architecture that is novel, improvement with super-junction structures and preparation method, this structure utilizes larger spacing and narrow N-epitaxial loayer, and utilize the single element at the interdigital end of each active element with relatively large radius, keep charge balance at the end of active region mesa structure.
Another aspect of the present invention is, propose a kind of device architecture that is novel, improvement with super-junction structures and preparation method, super-junction structures is prepared in an epitaxial loayer with doping content classification, such as on a N+ substrate, form P epitaxial loayer by three steps, force to puncture and occur in the lower part of drift region, thus improve the UIS performance of super junction MOSEFT device.
Another aspect of the present invention is, propose a kind of device architecture that is novel, improvement with super-junction structures and preparation method, thick dielectric area is positioned at below gate electrode, to reduce grid-drain capacitance Crss, thus solves the oscillation problem of super junction power device.
Another aspect of the present invention is, propose a kind of device architecture that is novel, improvement with super-junction structures and preparation method, by growing a thin simple layer N-epitaxial loayer (thickness range of 0.1-1.0 micron), be partially filled groove, and fill remaining deep trench by dielectric/oxide, thus solve because epitaxial growth in deep trench is slow, and the high manufacturing cost problem of the super-junction device caused.In addition, lightly doped N-type epitaxy layer can grow after N-epitaxial loayer, and before filling remaining deep trench by dielectric/oxide, abundant filling groove, this is conducive to using oxide filling groove more easily.
Another aspect of the present invention is, proposes a kind of device architecture that is novel, improvement with super-junction structures and preparation method, forms a very thin N-type nanotube layer, and balance with wider P-type area charge at wider P-type areas adjacent; Exemplarily, the wider P-type region of N-type nanotube layer is wide three times, causes the doping content of boron lower than the N-type doping content in N-type nanotube region three times.Therefore, limited boron can only be allowed to diffuse into N-type nanometer area under control, thus compensate unnecessary arsenic electric charge.Heavy N-type doping (such as arsenic or antimony) of N-type nanotube region, can not too movement, thus can not be diffused into P-type district in a large number.Which solves at high temperature, the problem that the counterdiffusion of N and P impurity phase brings.
Another aspect of the present invention is, propose a kind of device architecture that is novel, improvement with super-junction structures and preparation method, increase the trench region width at the first device line of demarcation place, such as a MOSFET element and second device (such as Schottky diode), fully fill large trench region with dielectric material---different from active device, active device is fully filled with silicon, then use silica (oxide or SiO2) to fill remainder.Therefore, different devices can be integrated on same silicon more easily.
Another aspect of the present invention is, propose a kind of device architecture that is novel, improvement with super-junction structures and preparation method, a Schottky diode and a controlled injection P-N diode are integrated, thus reduce the recovery charge of diode, reduce the leakage current of high tension apparatus.
Another aspect of the present invention is, propose a kind of device architecture that is novel, improvement with super-junction structures and preparation method, high pressure (HV) Schottky diode and a controlled injection P-N diode are integrated on same silicon wafer, as an igbt (IGBT), wherein the back side of IGBT is implanted with emitter (being P-type for N-passage device).Thus solve the difficult problem that IGBT structure lacks embedded type diode.
Another aspect of the present invention is, propose a kind of termination structure that is novel, improvement, the method preparing wide medium groove is first by formation SiO2 network, then the silicon mesa structure in SiO2 network is etched away, and with spin-on glass, HDP or polyimides, fill the region that just etched away, before metallization or after carry out, depend on the type of selected dielectric material.Owing to preparing suffered restriction, be difficult to prepare not only wide but also dark medium groove by traditional etching and fill method, but two-stage process of the present invention can utilize the preparation technology of standard, form a high-quality not only wide but also dark Filled Dielectrics groove.For each side of a 600V device, utilize this wide oxide channel of terminator, the HV terminator that a common 6-10 mil is wide, 2 mils can be reduced to.For low current product, this HV terminator increases wafer size, increases about 15% (in the ability that a TO-220 fills), increase about 50% (stopping for HV, is 53 × 53 mil ^2 wafers, 8 mils/side) to less wafer to wafer.Therefore, owing to reducing the terminator of applicable high-voltage applications device, thus solve high-voltage MOSFET power device, need a difficult problem for large terminator.
Read following to describe in detail and with reference to after accompanying drawing, these and other characteristics and advantages of the present invention, for a person skilled in the art, undoubtedly will be apparent.

In fig. 26, form the grid oxic horizon 225 that thickness is about 350-1200 dust, cover on sidewall along P-epitaxial loayer 216.Deposition of gate polysilicon layer 230, preferably selects the in-situ doped polysilicon layer of N+.Back etch polysilicon 230, utilizes CMP its end face smooth, and removes hard mask oxide layer 211 and silicon nitride (Si3N4) layer 212.Further etches polycrystalline silicon layer 230, form the grid 230 of a slight depression, the end face of grid polycrystalline silicon 230 is more about than mesa surfaces low 0.3 micron.Then a cushion oxide layer 232 is grown in top face.
In figure 27, utilize high-energy boron or P-bulk doped to implant, form body zone 235.Carry out high energy bulk doped when implanting, with certain inclination angle, to stop the negative mesa structure angle due to trenched side-wall, and produce in region near trenched side-wall and cover.After raised temperature, carry out bulk doped driving, body zone 235 is diffused in P-epitaxial loayer 210, N nanotube layer 215 and N--epitaxial loayer 216.Then, when close to zero degree, carry out weight boron and implant, so that the adjacent top surface above body zone 235 forms P+ body contact region 240.In Figure 28, utilize source mask (not indicating in figure) to carry out the phosphorous N+ of low energy and implant, to form the N+ source area 245 be enclosed in P-body zone 235 and P+ district 240.Under 900 degrees Celsius, annealing process is utilized to carry out implantation activation 30 minutes.In one alternate embodiment, at a higher temperature, N-type implantation is carried out, to produce the N-type region imbedded below P-body zone 235, equally for MOSFET channel region being connected to the N epitaxial loayer 215 as N-type implant 217.
Then, end face forms a silicon nitride (Si3N4) hard mask layer (not indicating in figure).Termination mask (not indicating in figure) is utilized to carry out isotropic silicon etching in terminator, to open groove (not indicating in figure) in the mesa region in the terminator between silicon oxide layer, then fill the mesa structure groove (dielectric layer 190 such as shown in Figure 18) after etching with dielectric or SiO2.Back etch media layer 190, until hard mask layer is out exposed, then etches and removes hard mask (not indicating in figure).These techniques in terminator as shown in figure 11.As shown in Figure 29, silex glass (BPSG) passivation layer 250 of deposition containing boric acid.In fig. 30, utilize contact mask (not indicating in figure), open the contact openings through bpsg layer 250.In Figure 31, at deposited on top metal level, then utilize metal mask (not indicating in figure), form the pattern of source metal 260-S and gate pad (not indicating in figure) on the metal layer.Also form a metal level in the bottom of substrate 205, to prepare drain metal 205-D, thus complete whole super junction nanotube MOSFET 200.
Be a series of side cut away view see Figure 32 to Figure 41, represent a kind of preparation process of terminator of autoregistration high pressure (HV) semiconductor power device with nanotube as shown in Figure 3.Figure 32 represents initial N+ Semiconductor substrate 205(such as heavy N+ doped silicon substrate), carry P-type epitaxial loayer 210, P-type epitaxial loayer 210 as layer 210-1,210-2 and 210-3, by three kinds of different doping contents, growth above substrate 205.The P-type epitaxial loayer 210 grown also can have the doping content of classification gradually, and its doping content reduces from top to bottom gradually.Then, oxide layer and silicon nitride (Si3N4) layer 212 is formed, as hard mask.In fig. 33, utilize trench mask (not indicating in figure), first etch hard mask 212, comprise an oxide layer and a silicon nitride layer.Then, utilize silicon etching open active groove 213b and stop groove 213a, enter in epitaxial loayer 210.The gash depth opened is about 36 to 40 microns, and side wall angle is about 88 degree.The width stopping groove 213a may be greater than active area groove 213b, and to ensure as shown in the figure, the oxide be filled in these grooves arrives channel bottom.Then, at sidewall Epitaxial growth N-extension nanotube layer 215 of groove 213a and 213b, its thickness is about 0.25 to 0.5 micron, and adulterates by arsenic dopants, epitaxial growth P-epitaxial loayer 216 above N nanotube 215 subsequently.As shown in figure 34, deposit in the trench and be filled with thin HDP oxide layer 220.It should be noted that due to the width that stops groove 213a comparatively large, although the abundant bottom of filling active area trenches 213b of P-epitaxial loayer 216, only can fill the skim lining stopping groove 213a.Therefore, oxide layer 220 in the degree of depth stopping filling in groove 213a much smaller than the degree of depth in active groove 213b.Not only dark but also wide oxide can be used to fill wider groove at borderline region, so that when preparing different components on same semiconductor wafer, distinguish the device that these are different.
Then, utilize back etch process and/or CMP (CMP) technique, the oxide layer 220 on removing end face, until silicon nitride layer 212 is out exposed.At this moment, the network of an oxidation column 223 can be formed in terminator, in the network containing semiconductor mesa structure 224.Terminator is covered with wide groove 213a, utilizes the trench-gate mask 218 being covered with terminator, is etched with the oxide layer 220 in the groove 213b of source region.Then, as shown in figure 35, the exposed sidewall along P-epitaxial loayer 216 carries out N-type implantation, preparation N-type implantation region 217.As shown in figure 36, by the liner of grid oxic horizon 225, prepare polysilicon gate 230.Now, the hard mask 212 on active area can be removed.Then, as mentioned above, He Chong P+ district, P-body base region 235 240 is formed.Utilize source mask (not indicating in figure), as mentioned above, in active cell district, implant and form N+ source area 245, as shown in figure 37.In Figure 38, utilize and stop hard mask 249, trench-gate mask 218 is removed together with remaining hard mask 212.In Figure 39, utilize silicon etching, etching semiconductor mesa structure 224, i.e. epitaxial loayer 210-1,210-2 and 210-3, between the oxide layer 220 of terminator, leave interim etching groove 222.In Figure 40, be filled in the etching groove 222 between the oxide layer 220 in terminator with dielectric material 290, to fill the etching mesa structure in terminator, form not only dark but also wide termination oxidation groove 289.In Figure 41, removing stops hard mask 249, carries out the subsequent treatment process as shown in Figure 29 to Figure 31, completes the preparation of the MOSFET element with special terminator as shown in figure 18.
Figure 42 is vertical view, Figure 43 and Figure 44 is respectively the profile along A-A ' line and B-B ' line of the MOSFET element as shown in figure 42 with plane termination structure.For clarity, although substantially indicate the electrical connection formed by metal level, vertical view does not indicate the top of metal, oxide and passivation layer, and as shown in Figure 18 and Figure 41, plane termination is an embodiment of wide oxidation groove.In plane termination structure, terminator 199 ' comprises the mesa structure 110 ' being similar to active area, and mesa structure 110 ' is positioned between oxide layer 120 ', fills in the trench, and be covered with by N doped epitaxial layer 115 ' with sidewall.Stop the source/body district 135,140 and 145 that unit does not have active cell 198 '.On the contrary, as shown in Figure 42 to Figure 44, P-mesa structure is connected by metal level 150-1 to 150-5 with N-epitaxial loayer, to make the specific pinch-off voltage VPT of each termination unit locking one.Passivation layer 195 ' can covering metal layer 150-1 to 150-5.
Last active cell (as shown in left side in figure), when source voltage is 0 volt, by metal level 150-1, is shorted to the P-mesa structure (and the polysilicon block 130 ' in centre) of the first termination unit.Or rather, metal level 150-1 is connected to 135' Nei P+ district of P district 140 '.The N-epitaxial loayer 115 ' of P-mesa structure 110 ' and surrounding exhausts, and the voltage of N-epitaxial loayer is increased to pinch-off voltage V pT1, voltage when namely N-epitaxial loayer and P-mesa structure exhaust.On N-epitaxial loayer 115 ' is connected to the N+ district 140 ' surrounding the first termination unit ' N district 135 ' ', the N+ district 140 ' of the first termination unit ' be shorted on the next P-mesa structure stopping unit (the next unit on right side) by metal level 150-2, owing to exhausting in this unit, voltage is made to increase again a V pT1, thus make total voltage now be V pT2≈ 2*V pT1.Until when reaching operating voltage (drain voltage) of device, this situation just can stop.See Figure 45, first by source potential as the reference voltage, the such as V=0 of metal level 150-1, voltage increases gradually in the gradual mode of pinch off step 155, makes the voltage at metal level 150-2 place be V pT1.Voltage delivery increases to V pT1, then reach the V at metal level 150-3 place pT2, be finally elevated to device voltage, i.e. 600 volts of predeterminated voltages at an in the end metal level 150-n place, as in Figure 45 near shown in the line of semiconductor chip edge.
In oxidation groove 120 ', form polysilicon block 130 ', to prevent electric charge and dirt from entering the oxide be oxidized in groove, thus improve the reliability of device.Because plane termination structure is compared with wide oxidation groove, need larger lateral separation, to intercept operating voltage, therefore wide oxidation groove termination structure is as shown in figure 18 not compact for this plane termination structure.Should also be noted that with the groove in above-mentioned active cell district similar, open with silica-filled groove in terminator, also with the sidewall tilted slightly.
