Technical field
The invention belongs to microelectronics technologies, are related to semiconductor devices, are based particularly on the gallium nitride base of suspension superjunction Hetero-junctions current apertures device, can be used for power electronic system.
Technical background
Power semiconductor is the core element of power electronic technique, with becoming increasingly conspicuous for energy and environmental problem, Research and develop novel high-performance, low-loss power device just becomes raising utilization rate of electrical, energy saving, alleviating energy crisis effective One of approach.And in power device research, between high speed, high pressure and low on-resistance, there is serious restricting relations, close Managing, effectively improving this restricting relation is the key that improve device overall performance.With the development of microelectric technique, tradition the Generation Si semiconductor and second generation GaAs semiconductor power device performance have been approached the theoretical limit that its material itself determines.In order to It can be further reduced chip area, working frequency is improved, improve operating temperature, reduce conducting resistance, improve breakdown voltage, reduce Machine volume improves overall efficiency, using GaN as the semiconductor material with wide forbidden band of representative, by its bigger forbidden bandwidth, higher Critical breakdown electric field and higher electronics saturation drift velocity, and stable chemical performance, high temperature resistant, anti-radiation etc. protrusion it is excellent Point, shows one's talent in terms of preparing high performance power device, and application potential is huge.Especially with GaN base heterojunction structure Lateral high electron mobility transistor, i.e., lateral GaN base high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) device, even more because of its low electric conduction The characteristics such as resistance, high-breakdown-voltage, high working frequency become the hot spot studied and applied both at home and abroad, focus.
However, in order to obtain higher breakdown voltage, need to increase grid leak spacing in lateral GaN base HEMT device, this It will increase device size and conducting resistance, reduce effective current density and chip performance on unit chip area, so as to cause The increase of chip area and development cost.In addition, in lateral GaN base HEMT device, as caused by high electric field and surface state Current collapse problem is more serious, although currently having numerous braking measures, current collapse problem is not obtained still thoroughly It solves.To solve the above-mentioned problems, researchers propose vertical-type GaN base current apertures heterojunction transistor, and a kind of Gallium nitride radical heterojunction current apertures device, referring to AlGaN/GaN current aperture vertical electron transistors,IEEE Device Research Conference,pp.31-32,2002.GaN base current apertures hetero-junctions Transistor can improve breakdown voltage by increasing drift layer thickness, avoid the problem of sacrificing device size and conducting resistance, because High power density chip may be implemented in this.And in GaN base current apertures heterojunction transistor, high electric field region, which is located at, partly to be led In body material bodies, this can thoroughly eliminate current collapse problem.2004, after Ilan Ben-Yaacov et al. is using etching MOCVD regrowth trench technology develops AlGaN/GaN current apertures heterojunction transistor, which does not use passivation layer, most Big output electric current is 750mA/mm, and mutual conductance 120mS/mm, both ends grid breakdown voltage is 65V, and current collapse effect is shown It writes and inhibits, referring to AlGaN/GaN current aperture vertical electron transistors with regrown channels,Journal of Applied Physics,Vol.95,No.4,pp.2073-2078,2004。 2012, Srabanti Chowdhury et al. utilized Mg ion implanting current barrier layer combination plasma asistance MBE regrowth The technology of AlGaN/GaN hetero-junctions develops the current apertures heterojunction transistor based on GaN substrate, and the device is using 3 μm of drifts Move layer, maximum output current 4kAcm-2, conducting resistance is 2.2m Ω cm2, breakdown voltage 250V, and electric current is inhibited to collapse Effect of collapsing is good, referring to CAVET on Bulk GaN Substrates Achieved With MBE-Regrown AlGaN/GaN Layers to Suppress Dispersion,IEEE Electron Device Letters,Vol.33,No.1,pp.41- 43,2012.The same year, a kind of enhanced GaN base current apertures heterojunction transistor proposed by Masahiro Sugimoto et al. It is authorized, referring to Transistor, US8188514B2,2012.In addition, 2014, Hui Nie et al. is ground based on GaN substrate A kind of enhanced GaN base current apertures heterojunction transistor is produced, which is 0.5V, and saturation current is greater than 2.3A, breakdown voltage 1.5kV, conducting resistance are 2.2m Ω cm2, referring to 1.5-kV and 2.2-m Ω-cm2Vertical GaN Transistors on Bulk-GaN Substrates,IEEE Electron Device Letters,Vol.35, No.9,pp.939-941,2014。
Traditional GaN base current apertures heterojunction transistor is based on GaN base wide bandgap semiconductor heterojunction structure, packet It includes: substrate 1, drift layer 2, aperture layer 3, left and right two symmetrical current barrier layers 4, aperture 5, channel layer 6 and barrier layer 7;Gesture Two sides above barrier layer 7 deposit source 9, are deposited with grid 10 on the barrier layer 7 between source electrode 9, pass through injection below source electrode 9 Two injection regions 8 are formed, substrate 1 is deposited with ohmic drain 11 below, as shown in Figure 1.
By the theory and experimental study of more than ten years, researchers' discovery, the heterogeneous crystallization of above-mentioned tradition GaN base current apertures There are inherent shortcoming in body pipe structure, it is extremely uneven to will lead to electric-field intensity distribution in device, especially current barrier layer with There are high peak electric fields in the semiconductor material of aperture area interface close beneath, so as to cause device premature breakdown. This to be difficult to realize the thickness by increasing N-shaped GaN drift layer in actual process come the breakdown voltage of constantly improve device.Cause This, the breakdown voltage of traditional structure GaN base current apertures heterojunction transistor is not generally high.In order to obtain higher device breakdown Voltage, and can be by increasing the thickness of N-shaped GaN drift layer come the breakdown voltage of constantly improve device, 2013, Zhongda Li et al. people has studied a kind of enhanced GaN base current apertures heterojunction transistor based on superjunction using technology of numerical simulation, grinds Study carefully the result shows that super-junction structure can effectively inside modulation device field distribution, make when in OFF state device inside electric field everywhere Intensity tends to be uniformly distributed, therefore device electric breakdown strength is up to 5~20kV, and when using 3 μm of attached columns wide breakdown voltage for 12.4kV, and conducting resistance is only 4.2m Ω cm2, referring to Design and Simulation of 5-20-kV GaN Enhancement-Mode Vertical Superjunction HEMT,IEEE Transactions on Electron Decices,Vol.60,No.10,pp.3230-3237,2013.Using superjunction GaN base current apertures heterojunction transistor from High-breakdown-voltage can be theoretically obtained, and can realize that breakdown voltage is constantly improve with the increase of N-shaped GaN drift layer thickness, It is to have reported the highest a kind of very effective high power device structure of breakdown voltage in document both at home and abroad at present.
With the extension of application field, in many technology necks such as electric car, S power-like amplifier, power management system In domain, in order to effectively realize power conversion and control, there is an urgent need to the high performance power devices with two-way blocking-up ability, i.e., Device will not only have very strong forward blocking ability, i.e. forward break down voltage, also have very strong reverse blocking capability simultaneously, Namely wish that device has very high negative drain breakdown voltage, i.e. breakdown reverse voltage under OFF state.And existing tradition GaN base current apertures heterojunction transistor is all made of ohmic drain, when device drain applies low-down backward voltage, device In current barrier layer will fail, form very big drain-source leakage current, and with the increase of drain electrode backward voltage, device Grid positive can also be opened, and by very big gate current, eventually lead to component failure.Therefore, existing traditional GaN base current aperture Diameter heterojunction transistor cannot achieve reverse blocking function.
