Description

A kind of gallium nitride based schottky diode semiconductor devices and manufacture method
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of gallium nitride semiconductor device, more particularly to a kind of gallium nitride based schottky diode semiconductor Device and manufacture method.
Background technology
Third generation semi-conducting material, including CdS, ZnO, SiC, GaN, diamond etc..The forbidden band of these semi-conducting materials Width is both greater than 2.2eV, in terms of electronic device, SiC and GaN is studied relatively ripe, is current generation Focus in boundary's semi-conducting material and device research field.
Gallium nitride (GaN) energy gap is 3.4eV, and broad stopband enables GaN materials to bear higher work temperature Degree, also makes GaN materials have bigger breakdown electric field, bigger breakdown electric field means that device can bear higher work Voltage, the power characteristic of device can be improved, GaN also has high electronics saturation drift velocity and high thermal conductivity, and total comes Say, GaN may be employed to manufacture high frequency, the excellent material of high-power semiconductor devices.
Gallium nitride radical heterojunction material is the important representative in gallium nitride (GaN) material, and it has continued GaN materials height The advantages that breakdown electric field, high electronics saturation drift velocity.A1GaN/GaN is the primary structure generation in GaN base heterojunction material Table, in A1GaN/GaN hetero-junctions, A1GaN is wide-band gap material, and GaN is arrowband material, and both form I type hetero-junctions, 2DEG is located at the GaN sides of heterojunction boundary.
AlGaN/GaN has been applied in terms of photoelectricity and electronic device in large quantities, and this is also to promote GaN materials to height One of horizontal and low cost development power, opto-electronic device mainly includes the laser of AlGaN/GaN multi-quantum pit structures And luminous tube;Electronic device is focused primarily on using AlGaN/GaN HEMTs (HEMT) structure and is used as GaN The basis representative of base device, this structure has good high frequency, high power, high temperature resistant and radiation resistance, with this structure The device developed includes AlGaN/GaN HFETs (AlGaN/GaN HFETS) and AlGaN/GaN Heterojunction schottky diode etc..
In terms of applied power electronics, launched field in 1999 since Infineon companies and end IGBT, it is next several Year, each main production IGBT company all releases one after another similar product.From that time, IGBT is obtained on electric property Qualitative leap, quickly grow and dominated the market of medium power range.With the development of power device IGBT technologies, IGBT switching speed is more and more faster, in application system, there is the IGBT of high-speed switch to need to ask using quick two pole Pipe is as fly-wheel diode.For switching device IGBT each time from opening into turn off process, fly-wheel diode can be by conducting state It is changed into cut-off state.And this crosses range request diode has fast soft recovery characteristics.In application process, it is desirable to system Small power consumption, the high and less electromagnetic noise of reliability, this all has high requirements to IGBT and FRD, however, at very long one section Between in, industry ignores the exploitation of fast diode because FRD performance does not catch up with, turn into limitation whole system effect The right IGBT of Neng , Although performance is fine, can not also bring into play, and the effect of recent fast diode receives the attention of height. Fast recovery diode(Abbreviation FRD), it is mainly used in Switching Power Supply, PWM pulse width modulators, uninterrupted power source(UPS), alternating current In the electronic circuits such as motivation variable-frequency governor.As high frequency, the fly-wheel diode of high current, high-frequency rectification diode or damping two Pole pipe uses, and is extremely promising electric power, electronic semiconductor components.The internal structure of fast recovery diode and common PN Junction diode is different, and it belongs to pin junction diodes, i.e., base i is added among P-type silicon material and N-type silicon materials, forms Pin structures.The thickness and doping concentration of base determine FRD breakdown reverse voltage value(Pressure voltage).
Fast recovery diode main technology and performance(That is electrical parameter)Have(1)Breakdown voltage,(2)Forward voltage drop and (3)Open turn-off characteristic etc..Fast recovery diode is a kind of ambipolar device
In general, the forward voltage drop of bipolar devices is conflicting with reverse recovery characteristic to improve positive pressure Drop will injure reverse recovery characteristic, such as add the hole-electron pair density of n- extension layers, and forward voltage drop can improve, but More electric charges having been stored when can make shut-off, the increase of maximum reverse restoring current and reverse recovery time are elongated, so that shut-off work( Consumption increase.
Best fast diode is Schottky diode, and this is a kind of single charge carrier device, not few son storage effect, But Schottky diode is done with silicon materials, can only because the critical electric field (critical field) of silicon materials is than relatively low The ceiling voltage for making useful single-chip Schottky diode is 200V, the application for 600V and 1200V, if needing to use Schottky diode, silicon carbide diode can only be used now, but the price of SiC schottky diode is very high, and cost performance is paid no attention to Think, in the quite a while, price is difficult to be greatly lowered.
The technology that epitaxial layer of gallium nitride is grown on silicon single crystal is very ripe, and having commercial product now is served as a contrast with silicon single crystal Bottom, although expensive with silicon monocrystalline substrate ratio sapphire at present, industry is believed, is done with more and more more using silicon monocrystalline substrate The product of GaN base heterojunctions and research and development, the cost of the epitaxial layer prepared with silicon monocrystalline substrate can more and more put down preferably with quality meeting It is better and better, should be most to have commercial use in the future.
The structure of the current commercial epitaxial layer silicon nitride being grown on silicon single crystal, epitaxial layer on single crystal surfaces Order is the AlN of the nanometer thickness of a number of plies one hundred, one layer of about a few micrometers of thick AlGaN, the thick GaN of a number of plies micron, followed by The buffer nitride layer silicon of one hundred nanometer of number, the AlGaN of about 25 nanometer thickness is followed by, Two-dimensional electron is formed between AlGaN and GaN Thin, the device that this structure has been used to develop includes the horizontal effect transistor of AlGaN/GaN hetero-junctions (AlGaN/GaN HFETS) and AlGaN/GaN hetero-junctions lateral direction schottky diodes etc..
Gallium nitride is a kind of broadband semiconductor, and Schottky barrier is higher, and this can cause the positive guide of Schottky diode Logical pressure drop ratio is higher, thus turns on power consumption increase, reduces the whole efficiency for turning energy system.In order to reduce conduction voltage drop, meeting again Make reverse bias leakage increase, the manufacture to Schottky diode brings very big difficulty.
