Description

A kind of enhanced semiconductor transistor and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to technical field of semiconductor device, more particularly, to a kind of enhanced semiconductor transistor and its Preparation method.
Background technique
It is the third generation semiconductor material of representative since forbidden bandwidth is loose, thermal conductivity is high, breakdown electric field is high etc. using GaN material Advantage has very big development space in high temperature, high frequency, anti-radiation, high-power applications field.
GaN base electronic device usually utilizes the Two-dimensional electron of high concentration at AlGaN/GaN heterostructure interface, high mobility Gas work makes device have the advantages that conducting resistance is small, output electric current is big, switching speed is fast.However, also just because of this AlGaN/GaN heterojunction structure (high two-dimensional electron gas, 2DEG), so that device is outside plus in the case that gate bias are zero, also day So in the open state, as depletion type operates.
The realization of the normal enhancement device of high-performance is the significant challenge that GaN base electronic device faces, and is current science The scientific and technological difficult point that boundary and industrial circle are generally acknowledged.High-performance normally closed device requires have positive threshold voltage and high threshold value electricity Pressure value, to simplify device peripheral circuit, guarantee thrashing safety, so that it is guaranteed that device can reliably work.Device is realized normal The general thinking of pass type characteristic is the 2DEG for retaining the conducting of access area height, i.e., does not influence the conducting resistance of device, while exhausting grid Pole lower channels 2DEG, to realize that device grids are also at off state in the case where not applying voltage condition.Currently, industry is generally adopted Normally-off GaN power electronic device is realized with 3 kinds of methods: (1) being insulated slot grid structure (MOSFET), and (2) cascode stage is coupled Structure (Cascode) (3) p-type grid structure (p-GaN gate, as shown in Figure 1).
In above structure, since the advantages that p-type gate device structure is simple, threshold voltage uniformity, is by academia and industry Boundary's concern.Currently, p-type gate device has been realized in industrialized development, there is Japan in the dominant company for carrying out the structure devices Panasonic company, the EPC company in the U.S. and Canadian GaN Systems company.Currently, about p-type grid normally-off The realization of AlGaN/GaN HEMT device, industry mainly use lithographic technique scheme, which becomes industry due to easy to accomplish The method generallyd use, however there are many deficiencies for this method, such as when etching removes access area p-GaN material, due to etching Uniformity is poor and there are problems that over etching, and etching can bring lattice damage to AlGaN potential barrier surface and introduce additional Defect level can make the electrology characteristic of access area 2DEG degenerate, to influence the performance uniformity and stability of device.Separately A kind of selection of technical scheme region growing p-GaN technology is also used, i.e., p-GaN layer is carried out on AlGaN/GaN heterojunction structure Selective area growth, thus realize area of grid retain p-GaN layer, and access area without p-GaN layer structure (as shown in Fig. 2, 01 layer is SiO2Mask layer).However, the dynamic (dynamical) influence of epitaxial growth is limited by, when the grid length of device is smaller, that is to say, that When growth window is very narrow, it is difficult to control using the growth that this method can have p-GaN material and adulterates the disadvantages of uneven, at present In this respect without breakthrough.In addition, p-GaN layer hole concentration is not generally high, mainstream reported values are substantially no higher than 1 at present ×1018 cm-3, therefore the Al component of the AlGaN potential barrier below p-GaN layer in AlGaN/GaN heterojunction structure and thickness are general It is smaller, it is commonly lower than 20% component and lower than 18nm thickness, this is advantageously implemented enhanced kind of operation, but will lead to connect simultaneously The resistance for entering area increases, and relatively thin AlGaN potential barrier can also make the doped chemical (such as magnesium) in p-GaN layer be easier to expand It is dissipated to channel, and then influences the reliability of device.
