Description

Transverse bipolar power semiconductor device and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of power semiconductor devices and preparation, and particularly relates to a bipolar semiconductor power device with a transverse MOS control anode and a preparation method thereof.
Background
As a large category of electronic technologies, power electronic technology (another category is information electronic technology) is a technology capable of realizing transmission, processing, storage and control of electric energy, and is suitable for high-power conversion and processing. The technology can change voltage, current, frequency and phase to meet the power consumption requirement of the system, thereby ensuring that the electric energy is properly applied. In addition, the electric energy is processed by the power electronic technology and then used, so that the energy-saving, efficient and environment-friendly effects can be achieved. The power electronic technology is born in the 50 th century and supports the development of modern industry and national defense industry as a new technology. In the civil field, the power electronic technology is mainly applied to the aspects of industrial motor design, power grid construction, household electrical appliances and the like. Modern power electronics technology has begun to be applied in more emerging fields, including new energy (such as high-power wind power generation), smart grids, rail transit, and variable frequency home appliances. In the field of national defense, power electronic technology has played an important role in aerospace, fighters, ships and warships and the like. The application of power electronic technology depends on various power electronic systems, and the core devices of the power electronic systems are power semiconductor devices.
In order to improve the performance and reliability of the power semiconductor device, it is necessary to increase the switching speed of the device under a certain blocking voltage capability, reduce the switching loss of the device, and reduce the forward conduction voltage drop. Fig. 1 shows a structure of a lateral bipolar power semiconductor device, i.e., an IGBT device, when the device is turned on in the forward direction, a P-type anode region (also called P-type anode region) 9 injects hole carriers into an N-type drift region 7, so that the N-type drift region 7 is subjected to conductance modulation, and thus the device obtains a relatively low forward-direction turn-on voltage drop; during the device turn-off process, these minority carriers existing in the N-type drift region 7 need to be extracted during the expansion of the depletion region, which is a reverse recovery process of the device turn-off process. The presence of reverse recovery increases the turn-off time of the device and thus the turn-off loss. Therefore, the contradictory relationship between the on-voltage drop and the off-loss of the device needs to be further optimized.
At present, power semiconductor devices which are developed fastest and applied most widely at home and abroad belong to Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBT) and MOS Control Thyristors (MCT). The IGBT device integrates the characteristics of an MOS and a BJT, has the advantages of high input impedance, gate control capability and simple driving circuit of the MOSFET, and also has the advantages of high current density, low conduction voltage drop and high current processing capability of the BJT, and is incomparable to other power semiconductor devices in the field of high-voltage and high-current application, so that the IGBT is an ideal power switch device in the field of power semiconductor application. MCT is a field control bipolar semiconductor power device, belongs to the third generation of power semiconductor devices, has the characteristic that the device can be controlled to be turned on and turned off through one gate, has extremely low conduction voltage drop and high surge current bearing capacity, and has the characteristic of temperature negative feedback. MCTs, by virtue of their significant advantages, have received considerable attention from researchers in semiconductor power devices once they have been proposed.
Lateral power semiconductor devices are generally favored in the power integrated circuit field due to their ease of compatibility with integrated circuit processes, with LIGBT and LMCT being no exceptions, and they also combine the advantages of LDMOS device structures. The LIGBT device and the LMCT are lateral bipolar integrated power devices developed on the basis of an IGBT and an MCT respectively, and the main difference between the LMCT device and the LIGBT device is the cathode structures of the LMCT device and the LIGBT device. Taking LIGBT as an example, the first proposed LIGBT structures are M darwinh and K Board of schwangsi university. In a typical LIGBT structure, P + is replaced by N + at the LDMOS drain, so that a PN junction hole injection mechanism is introduced at the drain, which has the same characteristics as the IGBT structure, and thus the operating principle is basically the same as that of the IGBT, and the difference is only in the difference between the lateral structure and the longitudinal structure. The lateral power device has the characteristic that peak electric fields at a surface anode and a cathode are equal when the device is in voltage resistance, so that a drift region is completely depleted when the device is in voltage resistance. The lateral LIGBT structure is mostly an NPT structure, and an n-buffer layer is required to be added below the p + region of the anode to bear the lateral high voltage.
The lateral power semiconductor device also has the same characteristics as the conventional power semiconductor device, and the contradiction between the conduction voltage drop and the turn-off loss needs to be considered. The turn-off loss of the device is influenced by the minority carrier concentration distribution of a drift region of the device when the device is in forward conduction, and the forward conduction voltage drop of the IGBT (MCT) mainly comprises the following three parts: the voltage drop of the channel in the MOS unit, the voltage drop of the drift region and the voltage drop of the anode diode. Because of the conductivity modulation effect in forward conduction, the voltage drop of the drift region is smaller and the channel voltage drop is lower than that of the anode diode. It is important to consider how the voltage drop of the anode diode is reduced when considering reducing the conduction voltage drop.

The working principle of the invention is as follows:
on the premise of keeping the cathode structure of the traditional lateral bipolar power semiconductor device unchanged, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, the invention introduces an anode trench gate structure and a source region and/or a base region in the anode region of the device, under the condition of not influencing the normal operation and opening of the device:
1) by controlling the anode trench gate structure, the forward conduction voltage drop of the bypass anode diode is reduced, so that the effect of reducing the forward conduction voltage drop of the power semiconductor device is achieved.
When the device is conducted, the anode diode is bypassed by opening the anode MOS structure, and the forward conduction voltage drop of the device is reduced. When the forward voltage drop of the device is increased due to the disappearance of the conductance modulation effect, the anode MOS channel can be closed so that holes can be injected into the drift region again for conductance modulation. Therefore, the dynamic switching process of the anode MOS can enable the device to have a lower average value of forward conduction voltage drop than that of the device with the traditional structure.
2) After the anode diode is bypassed, minority carrier injection from the anode region to the drift region is reduced, so that the time of a reverse recovery process of the device during turn-off is shortened, and the turn-off speed of the device is improved.
When the device is turned off, the anode MOS channel is turned on in advance when the device is turned off or before the device is turned off, so that minority carriers of the anode are reduced to be holes when the N channel device is turned on, and electrons are injected when the P channel device is turned on, and therefore, the excessive minority carriers in a drift region before the semiconductor power device is turned off can be reduced, the minority carrier extraction time required by the device when the device is turned off is further reduced, and the effect of improving the turn-off speed of the device is finally achieved. By the working mode, the average forward conduction voltage drop in the dynamic switching process of the device can be smaller, and the compromise between the forward conduction voltage drop and the turn-off loss can be further improved.
However, during bypassing of the anode diode, the injection of minority carriers may be reduced and thus the conductance modulation effect may be reduced. The reduction in forward conduction voltage drop caused by the anode diode bypass is then gradually increased due to the reduced conductance modulation. Therefore, in practical use, a pulse voltage needs to be applied to the gate electrode of the anode trench to ensure that the forward on voltage of the device is maintained at a lower value than that of the conventional device. In addition, the anode diode is bypassed before the device is turned off, so that the injection amount of minority carriers can be further reduced, and the turn-off time and the turn-off loss of the device are further reduced. Therefore, the structure of the invention greatly reduces the forward conduction voltage drop and the turn-off time of the device, improves the switching speed of the device and reduces the switching loss of the device. The invention adopts the anode trench gate structure to control the opening of the anode MOS channel, reduces the influence of parasitic capacitance introduced by the trench gate on the device as much as possible, and is beneficial to reducing the threshold voltage to improve the gate driving capability and improve the switching frequency of the anode trench gate structure. The invention can further improve and reduce the threshold voltage by increasing the thickness of the bottom dielectric layer of the trench gate and reducing the thickness of the side dielectric layer, and accelerate the switching speed of the anode MOS structure, so that the anode MOS structure is easier to control. The thickness of the bottom dielectric of the trench gate can be increased while the thickness of the side dielectric can be decreased. In addition, the manufacturing method of the MOS control anode semiconductor power device does not need to add extra process steps, and is compatible with the manufacturing method of the traditional device.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that: the switching speed of the device is improved, and the switching loss of the device is reduced; the forward conduction voltage drop and the turn-off loss of the device are reduced, the carrier concentration distribution of the whole N-type drift region is improved, and the compromise between the forward conduction voltage drop and the switching loss is improved; the manufacturing method of the MOS control anode power semiconductor device does not need to add extra process steps and is compatible with the manufacturing method of the traditional device.
