Description

III-nitride epitaxial structure and active device thereof and integrated manufacturing method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to an epitaxial structure, in particular to an epitaxial structure grown by III group/nitride semiconductor series, which has the advantages that an aluminum gallium nitride barrier layer (i-AlGaN barrier layer) has less defects under the growth environment with an aluminum gallium nitride buffer layer (i-AlGaN buffer layer) so as to reduce the surface defects (surface traces) of the aluminum gallium nitride barrier layer (i-AlGaN barrier layer). As for the gallium aluminum nitride buffer layer (i-AlGaN buffer layer), it can just prevent the electrons of the buffer layer defect (buffer trap) from entering the channel layer (channel layer) and further reduce the problem of Current Collapse effect (Current Collapse).
Background
In the prior art, the most common way to achieve enhanced GaN aluminum/GaN (AlGaN/GaN) HEMT with an epitaxial structure is 1. gallium-Face (Ga-Face) P-GaN Gate (P-GaN Gate) enhanced (E-Mode) HEMT structure (hemtstructure), 2. GaN aluminum Gate (al (x) GaN Gate) enhanced (E-Mode) HEMT structure (hemtstructure), but as the names of the two elements indicate, only the Gate (Gate) region will retain P-GaN (P-GaN) or GaN aluminum (al (x) GaN).
The most common process is to additionally grow a P-type gallium nitride (P-GaN) layer on the epitaxial structure of the conventional depletion (D-Mode) GaN/GaN high-speed electron mobility transistor (AlGaN/GaN HEMT), then dry etch the P-type gallium nitride (P-GaN) outside the Gate (Gate) region, and maintain the integrity of the thickness of the next GaN aluminum (AlGaN) epitaxial layer, because the next aluminum gallium nitride (AlGaN) epitaxial layer is etched too much, which may cause the formation of two-dimensional electron gas (2-DEG) at the gallium aluminum nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) interface of the gallium-cleaved-plane (Ga-Face) P-type gallium nitride Gate (P-GaN Gate) enhanced high-speed electron mobility transistor (E-Mode HEMT structure) structure. Therefore, the difficulty of dry etching is high because 1, the etching depth is difficult to control, and 2, the thickness of each epitaxial layer on the epitaxial wafer is still uneven; in addition, the problems of Current Collapse (Current collepse) of the epitaxial structure and the general depletion Mode (D-Mode) GaN aluminum/GaN high-speed electron mobility transistor (AlGaN/GaN HEMT) epitaxial structure must be solved, for example: buffer traces and Surface traces.
In view of the above-mentioned drawbacks, the present invention provides a novel III-nitride epitaxial structure and an active device formed by using the epitaxial structure and an integrated manufacturing method thereof.
Disclosure of Invention
The main objective of the present invention is to provide a novel III-nitride epitaxial structure, an active device formed by using the same, and an integrated manufacturing method thereof, so as to solve the process bottleneck encountered by the epitaxial structure in the high-speed electron mobility transistor, and the III-nitride epitaxial structure of the present invention can form a plurality of active devices capable of operating at high voltage and high speed at one time after the process.
Another objective of the present invention is to make the two-dimensional electron gas (2-DEG) of the gallium nitride Channel layer (i-GaN Channel) exhibit a depletion state in the fluorine ion structure by means of a fluorine ion structure, thereby manufacturing a GaN-enhanced GaN aluminum/GaN (AlGaN/GaN) hemt, a hybrid schottky barrier diode or a hybrid device.
To achieve the above objective, the present invention provides an aluminum gallium nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) epitaxial structure, which includes a substrate; a gallium nitride high resistance layer (carbon doped) (i-GaN) on the substrate; an aluminum gallium nitride buffer layer (i-AlGaN buffer layer) on the gallium nitride high resistance layer (carbon doped) (i-GaN); a gallium nitride Channel layer (i-GaN Channel) on the gallium aluminum nitride buffer layer (i-AlGaN buffer layer); an aluminum gallium nitride barrier layer (i-AlGaN barrier layer) on the gallium nitride Channel layer (i-GaN Channel); a fluorine ion structure in the GaN aluminum barrier layer (i-AlGaN barrier layer); and a first gate insulating dielectric layer on the fluorine ion structure.
The present invention further provides a plurality of high-speed electron mobility transistors and Schottky barrier diode devices having a fluorine ion structure and manufactured by using the gallium aluminum nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) epitaxial structure, and integrated manufacturing methods thereof.

Detailed Description
In order to provide a further understanding and appreciation for the structural features and advantages achieved by the present invention, the following detailed description of the presently preferred embodiments is provided:
fig. 1A is a first structural diagram of an epitaxial structure 1 of a GaN aluminum/GaN high-speed electron mobility transistor (AlGaN/GaN HEMT) according to the present invention. The epitaxial structure 1 sequentially includes a Silicon Substrate (Silicon Substrate)11, a gallium nitride high resistance Buffer layer (carbon-doped) 12, a gallium nitride high resistance layer (carbon-doped) 13, an aluminum gallium nitride Buffer layer (i-AlGaN Buffer layer)14, a gallium nitride channel layer (gan channel layer)15, and an aluminum gallium nitride barrier layer (i-AlGaN barrier layer)16, wherein the aluminum gallium nitride Buffer layer (i-AlGaN Buffer layer)14 mainly functions to prevent electrons of Buffer layer defects (Buffer traces) from entering the gallium nitride channel layer (gan channel layer 15) and further reduce the phenomenon of element Current Collapse (Current Collapse). As shown in fig. 1B, a second structural diagram of the epitaxial structure 2 of the GaN aluminum/GaN high-speed electron mobility transistor (AlGaN/GaN HEMT) designed by the present invention mainly considers that an aluminum gallium nitride Buffer Layer (i-AlGaN Buffer Layer)14 directly grows on a GaN high resistance Layer (carbon doped) (i-GaN Layer (C-doped)13 and has an excessive lattice mismatch problem, so that an aluminum gallium nitride Buffer Layer (aluminum content gradually changes to be the same as that of the 14 th Layer) (i-AlGaN Grading Buffer Layer)21 is added.
Please refer to fig. 2A, which is a first structural diagram of a fluorine ion implanted gallium aluminum nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) schottky barrier diode according to the present invention. As shown, the present invention utilizes fluorine (F-) implantation to grow a "fluorine structure 160" on the AlGaN/GaN (AlGaN/GaN) epitaxial structure 1 of FIG. 1A (or FIG. 1B). Because the two-dimensional electron gas (2-DEG)150 under the region with the grown fluorine ion structure 160 is depleted, the depleted two-dimensional electron gas (2-DEG) can be used to reduce the reverse leakage current generated when reverse bias is applied in circuit applications and increase the reverse breakdown voltage.

Next, a Passivation Dielectric (Passivation Dielectric) layer 70 is deposited by Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD), the material of which may be selected from silicon oxide, silicon oxynitride (SiOx, SiOxNy) or silicon nitride (SiNx), and finally, the Passivation Dielectric layer 70 is patterned to expose the wire bonding regions by etching, thereby forming the structure shown in fig. 7A and 7B.
Similarly, since the first gate electrode metal 60 and the first gate insulating dielectric layer 50 form the lateral capacitors 51 and 52, the lateral capacitors 51 and 52 form a Field Plate Effect (Field Plate Effect), and the electric Field of the lateral capacitors 51 and 52 is used to uniformly disperse the high-density electric Field under the first gate electrode metal 60 and the second gate electrode metal 63, which is used to increase the drain-to-source breakdown voltage (Vds) of the high-speed Electron mobility transistor, and also to suppress the Electron trapping Effect (Electron trapping Effect) under the first gate electrode metal 60 and the second gate electrode metal 63, thereby reducing the Current Collapse Effect (Current colleps) of the high-speed Electron mobility transistor during operation.
Please refer to fig. 9A-1, which is a first structure diagram of a fluorine ion implantation enhanced type GaN aluminum/GaN (AlGaN/GaN) hemt of the present invention serially connected to a GaN aluminum/GaN (AlGaN/GaN) Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD) of a fluorine ion implantation hybrid GaN aluminum/GaN (AlGaN/GaN) schottky barrier diode. In the fourth embodiment of the present invention, a fluorine ion implantation enhanced type gallium aluminum nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) HEMT is connected in series with a gallium aluminum nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD) to form a fluorine ion implantation hybrid Schottky barrier diode. Wherein the Anode (Anode)90 and the first Gate of the Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD) are electrically connected by the first Gate electrode metal (Gate)60, wherein the first Gate electrode metal 60, the Anode electrode metal 901, the cathode metal 93 and the cathode electrode connecting metal 66 therebetween are simultaneously completed. When a positive voltage is applied to the Anode (Anode)90 of the aluminum gallium nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD), in addition to the conduction of the Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD), the Anode (Anode)90 also applies a positive voltage to the first Gate electrode metal (Gate)60, so that the fluorine ion implantation enhanced aluminum gallium nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) high-speed electron mobility transistor is in a fully conducting state, and thus the current can be smoothly sent to the Cathode (Cathode) 91. When a positive voltage is applied to the cathode 91 (cathode metal 93), the gate voltage (Vgs) of the enhanced GaN aluminum/GaN (AlGaN/GaN) hemt is "negative" so that the GaN enhanced GaN aluminum/GaN (AlGaN/GaN) hemt is in an off state, thereby protecting the GaN aluminum/GaN schottky barrier diode ((AlGaN/GaN) SBD) from breakdown at the reverse voltage. In addition, the fluorine ion implantation enhanced gallium aluminum nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) high-speed electron mobility transistor is an element with a current negative temperature coefficient, and the gallium aluminum nitride/gallium nitride Schottky barrier diode ((AlGaN/GaN) SBD) is an element with a current positive temperature coefficient, so that the two elements are mutually connected in series and then have complementary action, so that the current of the hybrid element is not easily influenced by the temperature to change when the hybrid element works at a fixed voltage.
The fluorine ion implantation hybrid AlGaN/GaN Schottky barrier diode is characterized in that the two-dimensional electron gas (2-DEG)150 cannot exist under the first gate electrode metal 60 as described above, and the two-dimensional electron gas (2-DEG)150 cannot be recovered unless a positive voltage is applied. Therefore, the cathode 91 can effectively increase the reverse breakdown voltage and suppress the reverse leakage current when it is subjected to the reverse voltage.
As shown in fig. 9A-1 and 9A-2, the fourth embodiment of the fluorine ion implantation hybrid GaN-aln/GaN (AlGaN/GaN) schottky barrier diode mainly includes an GaN-aln/GaN (AlGaN/GaN) epitaxial structure according to the present invention, which is divided into a left region L1 and a right region R1. The left region L1 is formed with a fluorine ion implantation enhanced type GaN aluminum/GaN (AlGaN/GaN) hemt including a fluorine ion structure 160, wherein the two-dimensional electron gas (2-DEG) is formed in the GaN channel layer 15 at the junction of the GaN aluminum barrier layer (i-AlGaN barrier layer) 16/GaN channel layer (GaN channel layer)15, but due to the presence of the fluorine ion structure 160, the two-dimensional electron gas (2-DEG)150 in the GaN channel layer 15 is in a depletion state below the fluorine ion structure 160. The right region R1 is formed with an anode field plate aluminum gallium nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) schottky barrier diode.
In the fourth embodiment, after performing a fluorine ion implantation process on the gallium aluminum nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) epitaxial structure, a first source ohmic contact electrode 30 and a first drain ohmic contact electrode 31 are formed in the left region L1, and a cathode ohmic contact electrode (cathode metal) 34 of the Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD) is formed in synchronization with the right region R1. An anode field plate insulating dielectric 92 is formed on the right region R1, and a first gate insulating dielectric 50 is also formed on the left region L1.
Subsequently, as described previously, the first gate electrode metal 60 and the respective connection metals are formed, for example: a patterned insulating protection dielectric layer 70 is formed on the epitaxial layer (gallium aluminum nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) epitaxial structure) to expose a portion of the insulating dielectric layer, which is formed as the top view shown in fig. 9B, of the first gate electrode connecting metal, the first source electrode connecting metal, and the anode electrode connecting metal of the GaN aluminum/gallium nitride schottky barrier diode ((AlGaN/GaN) SBD), and the related circuit layout metal lead portion of the hybrid GaN aluminum/gallium nitride schottky barrier diode.
FIG. 9B is a top view of a fluorine ion implantation hybrid AlGaN/GaN (AlGaN/GaN) Schottky barrier diode in which the fluorine ion implantation enhanced AlGaN/GaN (AlGaN/GaN) high-speed electron mobility transistor of the present invention is serially connected to a GaN aluminum/GaN (AlGaN/GaN) Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD). As shown, the anode electrode of the fluorine ion implanted hybrid aluminum gallium nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD) and the first gate electrode metal 60 are electrically connected (located under the insulating protection dielectric layer 70) with the first gate electrode metal 60 as a connecting metal. Furthermore, the anode electrode connecting metal of the hybrid aluminum gallium nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD) has an anode electrode bonding region 83, and the cathode electrode metal 93 has a source electrode bonding region 82.
As shown in fig. 10A-1 and 10A-2, the hybrid aluminum gallium nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) schottky barrier diode of the fourth embodiment mainly includes an aluminum gallium nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) epitaxial structure of the present invention, which is divided into a left region L1 and a right region R1. The left region L1 is formed with a depletion type aluminum gallium nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) high-speed electron mobility transistor. The right region R1 is formed with an anode field plate aluminum gallium nitride/gallium nitride (AlGaN/GaN) schottky barrier diode.
When the cathode 91 is given a positive voltage, the gate voltage (Vgs) of the GaN depletion type high-speed electron mobility transistor (D-Mode HEMT) is "negative", so that the GaN depletion type high-speed electron mobility transistor (D-Mode HEMT) is in an off state, thereby protecting the GaN schottky barrier diode ((AlGaN/GaN) SBD) from breakdown at the reverse voltage.
The above description is only for the purpose of illustrating the preferred embodiments of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, which is defined by the appended claims.
