Description

Semiconductor device and method for manufacturing the same
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a semiconductor device and a manufacturing method thereof.
Background
In some application scenarios, certain properties of the semiconductor device may have a certain influence on practical use. For example, for some field effect transistors, the limit value of the maximum gate-source voltage of the device is required to be higher in some application scenarios, but in the existing field effect transistors, the factors restricting the performance of the device are many, so that some devices cannot adapt to some application scenarios. For example, in prior devices, if during the growth of the gate oxide layer, the isolation oxide layer is formed at the same time. Although the isolation oxide is slightly thicker than the gate oxide (polysilicon oxidizes faster than single crystal silicon, the thickness of the first oxide is approximately between 200A and 900A, which is limited by the designed threshold voltage)) However, the isolation oxide layer formed of polysilicon is inferior in quality to the gate oxide layer formed of single crystal silicon. Typically, the isolation oxide layer between the gate polysilicon and the field plate polysilicon is weak. Device VGSSIs limited by a limit value of IGSSthe/HTGB failure causes a lot of troubles.
If the isolation oxide layer 36 is formed by the method described in U.S. Pat. No. 7098500B2, as shown in fig. 1a, the isolation oxide layer can be formed by High Density Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition (HDPCVD) to fill the trench, followed by a chemical mechanical polishing process and then an oxide etch back process. Although the isolation oxide layer 36 can be made thicker, the process is complicated and costly to manufacture, and it is difficult to control the thickness of the isolation oxide layer 36 during the manufacturing process, which depends on the remaining thickness of the polysilicon 38 and the termination point of the etching of the isolation oxide layer 36 itself. Meanwhile, the manufacturing process is difficult to control the position of the bottom of the gate polysilicon 34, and the influence factors are similar to the above. If the bottom of the gate polysilicon 34 is shallower than the bottom of the P-well 16, the device will be hard to turn on. If the bottom of the gate polysilicon 34 is too deep, an undesirably large Miller Capacitance (Miller Capacitance) will result.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. The components of embodiments of the present invention generally described and illustrated in the figures herein may be arranged and designed in a wide variety of different configurations. Thus, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention, presented in the figures, is not intended to limit the scope of the invention, as claimed, but is merely representative of selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
It should be noted that: like reference numbers and letters refer to like items in the following figures, and thus, once an item is defined in one figure, it need not be further defined and explained in subsequent figures. Meanwhile, in the description of the present invention, the terms "first", "second", and the like are used only for distinguishing the description, and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
The embodiment of the application provides a manufacturing method of a semiconductor device, which comprises the following steps as shown in fig. 1 b.
Step S101, as shown in fig. 1c, providing a substrate 101, where the substrate 101 includes a first semiconductor layer 111 and a second semiconductor layer 112 located on one side of the first semiconductor layer 111, the first semiconductor layer 111 has a first conductivity type, the second semiconductor layer 112 has a second conductivity type, and the first conductivity type is the same as or different from the second conductivity type. Both the first semiconductor layer 111 and the second semiconductor layer 112 may be doped N-type, and specifically, the first semiconductor layer 111 may be heavily doped N-type, and the second semiconductor layer 112 may be lightly doped N-type, so that the first semiconductor layer 111 and the second semiconductor layer 112 have the same conductivity type. It is to be understood that the first conductive type is N or P type, and the second conductive type is N or P type. When the first semiconductor layer 111 is doped P-type and the second semiconductor layer 112 is doped N-type, an IGBT can be manufactured and formed, and the conductivity types of the first semiconductor layer 111 and the second semiconductor layer 112 are not limited in this embodiment of the application.
In step S102, as shown in fig. 2, a trench 113 is formed in the second semiconductor layer 112.
The depth of the trench 113 in the second semiconductor layer 112 may be determined according to practical situations, and the specific depth of the trench 113 is not limited in the embodiments of the present application. It is understood that after the trenches 113 are etched in the second semiconductor layer 112, the growth and removal of the sacrificial oxide layer may also be performed.
Step S103, forming a field oxide layer 102 and a field plate 103 in the trench 113, where the field oxide layer 102 covers the bottom and a portion of the sidewall of the trench 113, and a gap 131 is formed between the field plate 103 and the second semiconductor layer 112.
After the trench 113 is formed, the field oxide layer 102 and the field plate 103 can be formed in the trench 113. In detail, as shown in fig. 3, a field oxide layer 102 may be grown in the trench 113, and then as shown in fig. 4, a field plate 103 may be formed in the field oxide layer 102. The field oxide layer 102 is etched back to form the structure shown in fig. 5. It is understood that the field plate 103 may be made of a polysilicon material. After the etching back of the field oxide layer 102 is completed, a gap 131 is formed between the field plate 103 and the second semiconductor layer 112.
Step S104, as shown in fig. 6, a dielectric material 104 is grown on the sidewall and the bottom of the gap 131, the surface of the field plate 103 away from the first semiconductor layer 111, and the surface of the second semiconductor layer 112 away from the first semiconductor layer 111, so as to form an electrode trench 141 for depositing an electrode material 105 between the field plate 103 and the second semiconductor layer 112.
Step S105, as shown in fig. 7, deposits the electrode material 105 in the electrode groove 141.
The electrode material 105 may not only fill the electrode groove 141 but also cover the surface of the second semiconductor layer 112.
For convenience of description, as shown in fig. 8, the dielectric material 104 between the electrode material 105 and the field plate 103 serves as the first isolation layer 142, and the oxide material between the electrode material 105 and the second semiconductor layer 112 serves as the first oxide layer 143. First spacer layer 142 and first oxide layer 143 are formed on dielectric material 104 grown as described above.
In the present embodiment, the first isolation layer 142 is obtained by performing oxide growth on the basis of the field plate 103, and the first oxide layer 143 is obtained by performing oxide growth on the basis of the second semiconductor layer 112. When the field plate 103 is made of polysilicon material and the substrate 101 is made of single crystal silicon material, under the same growth environment, the growth rate of the first isolation layer 142 is faster than that of the first oxide layer 143, so that the thickness D2 of the first isolation layer 142 is greater than the thickness D1 of the first oxide layer 143, as shown in fig. 9. It is understood that the specific thickness of the first oxide layer 143 may be determined according to a threshold voltage when designing a device, and the specific thickness of the first oxide layer 143 is not limited by the embodiments of the present application. Optionally, the thickness of the first oxide layer 143 may be between 200A and 900A.
The semiconductor device in the embodiment of the present application may be a field effect transistor, and the first electrode 151 may be a gate electrode in the field effect transistor. The inventors have found that although the thickness of the first isolation layer 142 between the field plate 103 and the first electrode 151 is thicker than that of the first oxide layer 143, the first isolation layer 142 grown directly on the basis of the field plate 103 is still relatively weak, and the relatively weak first isolation layer 142 may limit the limit value of the gate-source maximum voltage VGSS of the device, and at the same time, may cause the IGSS/HTGB failure problem.
Step S106, removing a portion of the electrode material 105 near the first isolation layer 142, so as to form an isolation trench 107 between the electrode material 105 remaining in the electrode trench 141 and the first isolation layer 142, where the isolation trench 107 is used for manufacturing the second isolation layer 108.
In order to increase the gate-source voltage of the device and solve the problem caused by IGSS/HTGB failure, in the embodiment of the present invention, after filling the electrode material 105 in the electrode trench 141, other structures are not continuously fabricated, but a portion of the electrode material 105 in the electrode trench 141 is removed. In detail, a portion of the electrode material 105 near the first isolation layer 142 may be removed, so that a new isolation trench 107 is formed between the electrode material 105 remaining in the electrode trench 141 and the first isolation layer 142.
In the embodiment of the present application, the number of the electrode grooves 141 is two, and the two electrode grooves are respectively located on two sides of the field plate 103, so that the first electrode 151 can be also two first electrodes 151, thereby forming a split gate structure. In the fabrication of the isolation trenches 107, also the portion of the electrode material 105 in each electrode trench 141 near the first isolation layer 142 is removed, thereby forming two isolation trenches 107 on both sides of the field plate 103.
In detail, the structure of the first electrode 151 may be formed in two cases, one is that, as shown in fig. 10, the first electrode 151 is located only between the field plate 103 and the second semiconductor layer 112; alternatively, as shown in fig. 11, the first electrode 151 includes not only a portion located between the field plate 103 and the second semiconductor layer 112 but also another portion located on the surface of the second semiconductor layer 112 away from the first semiconductor layer 111.
The step of forming the isolation trench 107 is different according to the structure of the first electrode 151. Specifically, in an embodiment, the electrode trenches 141 may further include two electrode trenches 141 located on both sides of the field plate 103, and the electrode material 105 is filled in each of the electrode trenches 141. Wherein the step of removing a portion of the electrode material 105 adjacent to the first isolation layer 142 comprises the following substeps.
In the sub-step S161, a portion of the electrode material 105 in each electrode groove 141 near the first isolation layer 142 is removed, and the isolation trench 107 is formed in a gap between the electrode material 105 remaining in the electrode groove 141 and the first isolation layer 142.
When removing the electrode material 105 shown in fig. 10, a photoresist 106 may be coated on one side of the device, as shown in fig. 12, the photoresist 106 exposes a portion of the electrode material 105 in the electrode trench 141 near the first isolation layer 142, so that a portion of the electrode material 105 near the first isolation layer 142 may be removed in a subsequent step, resulting in the structure shown in fig. 13, and the electrode material 105 remaining in the electrode trench 141 forms the first electrode 151.
In another embodiment, the electrode trenches 141 include two electrode trenches 141 located on two sides of the field plate 103, the electrode material 105 is filled in each electrode trench 141, and the electrode material 105 covers the dielectric material 104 on the surface of the second semiconductor layer 112 away from the first semiconductor layer 111. The step of removing a portion of the electrode material 105 adjacent to the first isolation layer 142 comprises the following sub-steps.
In the substep S162, a portion of the electrode material 105 near the first isolation layer 142 in each electrode groove 141 is removed.
A substep S163 of removing a portion of the electrode material 105 on the side of the second semiconductor layer 112 away from the first semiconductor layer 111, and retaining a portion of the electrode material 105 covering the side of the second semiconductor layer 112 away from the first semiconductor layer 111 close to the electrode groove 141; the gap between the electrode material 105 remaining in the electrode groove 141 and the first isolation layer 142 forms the isolation trench 107.
When the first electrode 151 structure shown in fig. 11 is partially removed, as shown in fig. 14, a photoresist 106 may be coated on a portion of the electrode material 105, and then the electrode material 105 is etched to remove a portion of the electrode material 105, so that an isolation trench 107 is formed between the remaining electrode material 105 and the field plate 103, thereby obtaining the structure shown in fig. 15, where the number of the isolation trenches 107 in this embodiment is two. In the etching process of removing the electrode material 105, in order to avoid etching the dielectric material 104 below the electrode material 105 in the electrode groove 141 as much as possible, an etching method with a high selectivity may be adopted. After the removal of the electrode material 105 is completed, the photoresist 106 may be removed.
In step S107, the second isolation layer 108 is formed in the isolation trench 107.
The method of forming the second isolation layer 108 in the isolation trench 107 may include two methods, one is to fill the isolation material 181 in the isolation trench 107, and the other is to grow the field plate 103 polysilicon and the first electrode 151 polysilicon on the basis of thermal oxidation conditions.
In detail, the second isolation layer 108 may be formed by the following sub-steps.
In the substep S171, an isolation material 181 is filled in each of the isolation trenches 107, and the isolation material 181 between the electrode material 105 remaining in the electrode groove 141 and the first isolation layer 142 forms the second isolation layer 108.
As shown in fig. 16 and 17, while the isolation material 181 fills the isolation trench 107, the isolation material 181 also covers the surface of the electrode material 105 remaining in the electrode trench 141, and the isolation material 181 also covers the dielectric material 104 on the surface of the second semiconductor layer 112 away from the first semiconductor layer 111. The isolation material 181 may form the second isolation layer 108 in the isolation trench 107 by a high density plasma chemical vapor deposition process.
In another embodiment, second isolation layer 108 may be formed by the following sub-steps.
In the sub-step S172, in the thermal oxidation growth condition, the electrode material 105 remaining in the electrode trench 141 and the first isolation layer 142 grow to form a thermally grown oxide layer, and the thermally grown oxide layer fills the isolation trench 107 to form the second isolation layer 108.
The second spacer 108 may be grown under thermal oxide growth conditions on the basis of the first electrode 151 polysilicon and the field plate 103 polysilicon. Alternatively, the second isolation layer 108 may be formed by oxidizing the polysilicon of the first electrode 151 and the polysilicon of the field plate 103 in the P-type second conductive type region 115 push junction process.
The second isolation layer 108 is formed of an isolation material 181 between the first electrode 151 and the first isolation layer 142, and for convenience of illustration, only the second isolation layer 108 is shown in fig. 18 and 20, and the isolation material 181 in other portions is not shown. As shown in fig. 19 and 21, the dielectric material between the first electrode 151 and the field plate 103 includes the first isolation layer 142 and the second isolation layer 108, the sum of the thicknesses of which is D3, the thickness of the first oxide layer 143 is D1, and D3 is significantly greater than D1, it being understood that D3 is also greater than D2 described above in the same device specification.
In step S108, a first conductive type region 114 and a second conductive type region 115 are formed in the substrate 101.
Step S109, a dielectric layer 109 covering the first electrode 151 is formed on one side of the substrate 101.
Step S110, a second electrode 110 and a third electrode 120 are formed on both sides of the substrate 101.
After the fabrication of the second isolation layer 108 is completed, other structures of the device can be fabricated. As shown in fig. 22 to 25, ion implantation may be performed in the second semiconductor layer 112 to form the first conductive type region 114 and the P-type second conductive type region 115, and a junction push-out of the P-type second conductive type region 115 may be performed. In fabricating and forming the MOS structure, the first conductive type region 114 may form a source region of the device, and the second conductive type region 115 may form a well region of the device. Then, a dielectric layer 109 covering the first electrode 151 is formed, and then, the surface of the second semiconductor layer 112 not covered by the dielectric layer 109 may be subjected to photolithography to form a contact hole through which the second electrode 110 contacts the second semiconductor layer 112. Further, ion implantation may be performed at the contact hole portion to form the contact hole ion implantation region 116. Then, a metal material is deposited to form the second electrode 110 and the third electrode 120.

In this way, the thickness of the isolation material 181 between the first electrode 151 and the field plate 103 is significantly greater than the thickness of the first oxide layer 143 between the first electrode 151 and the second semiconductor layer 112, and the overall quality of the isolation layer between the first electrode 151 and the field plate 103 is improved by additionally fabricating the second isolation layer 108. The limit value of the maximum gate-source voltage of the semiconductor device is higher, and meanwhile, the problem of IGSS/HTGB failure of the device can be solved.
In summary, in the embodiment of the present invention, during the process of manufacturing the first electrode 151, a portion of the electrode material 105 is removed, so that the isolation trench 107 is formed between the electrode material 105 remaining in the electrode trench 141 and the first isolation layer 142, and the second isolation layer 108 can be further manufactured in the isolation trench 107. As such, the sum of the thicknesses of the first spacer layer 142 and the second spacer layer 108 may be significantly greater than the thickness of the first oxide layer 143, resulting in an improved overall quality of the spacer layer between the first electrode 151 and the field plate 103.

As mentioned above, the field plate 103 can be made of polysilicon, so that the thickness of the first isolation layer 142 formed on the basis of the field plate 103 is slightly larger than the thickness of the first oxide layer 143, but is not enough to greatly increase the threshold value of the maximum gate-source voltage of the device.
In the embodiment of the present application, the second isolation layer 108 is separately formed between the first electrode 151 and the first isolation layer 142, so that the thickness of the isolation material 181 between the first electrode 151 and the field plate 103 is thicker than that in the case where only the first isolation layer 142 is disposed, that is, the thickness of the isolation material 181 between the first electrode 151 and the field plate 103 is significantly larger than that of the first oxidation layer 143.
