Technical Field

Background
At present, power semiconductor devices are rapidly developed, and on one hand, technologies of an igbt (insulated Gate Bipolar transistor) and a VDMOS are continuously innovated to realize excellent performance; on the other hand, low cost is also a pursuit goal for the development of power semiconductors. In the processing cost of the power semiconductor, the cost of the mask and the corresponding photolithography process are often the main factors, and therefore, reducing the number of masks becomes the key to reducing the cost of the device. In most cases, there is often a trade-off between high performance devices and low cost unless new devices, processes, etc. are present.
Referring to fig. 1 to fig. 9, which are cross-sectional views illustrating specific steps of a manufacturing process of a front structure of a conventional trench type power semiconductor device, taking an N type power semiconductor device as an example, specifically,
as shown in fig. 1, an N-type semiconductor substrate 1 is provided, a first substrate photoresist layer 2 is coated on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 1, and the first substrate photoresist layer 2 is subjected to photolithography by using a first substrate mask 3 to obtain a first substrate photoresist layer window 6 penetrating through the first substrate photoresist layer 2. And performing groove etching on the semiconductor substrate 1 by using the substrate first photoresist layer 2 and the substrate first photoresist layer window 6 to obtain a substrate cell groove 4 and a substrate terminal groove 5 which are positioned in the semiconductor substrate 1.
As shown in fig. 2, the substrate first photoresist layer 2 is removed by a conventional technique in the art, and thermal oxidation is performed on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 1 to obtain a substrate cell trench insulating oxide layer 7 covering the sidewalls and bottom walls of the substrate cell trench 4 and a substrate terminal trench insulating oxide layer 9 covering the sidewalls and bottom walls of the substrate terminal trench 5.
After obtaining a substrate cell trench insulating oxide layer 7 and a substrate terminal trench insulating oxide layer 9, conducting polycrystalline silicon deposition is carried out on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 1 to obtain a substrate cell trench polycrystalline silicon body 8 filled in the substrate cell trench 4 and a substrate terminal trench conducting polycrystalline silicon 10 filled in the substrate terminal trench 5, wherein the substrate cell trench polycrystalline silicon body 8 is insulated and isolated from the side wall and the bottom wall of the substrate cell trench 4 through the substrate cell trench insulating oxide layer 7; the substrate termination trench polysilicon body 10 can be insulated from the sidewalls and bottom wall of the substrate termination trench 5 by a substrate termination trench insulating oxide layer 9.
As shown in fig. 3, P-type impurity ions are implanted into the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 1 to obtain a P-type substrate layer 11 on the upper portion of the semiconductor substrate 1, wherein the P-type substrate layer 11 penetrates through the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 1, the P-type substrate layer 11 extends vertically downward from the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 1, and the P-type substrate layer 11 is located above the bottom of the corresponding substrate cell trench 4 and substrate termination trench 5.
As shown in fig. 4, a second photoresist layer 12 is formed on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 1, and the second photoresist layer 12 is subjected to photolithography using a second reticle 13.
As shown in fig. 5, by using the substrate second photoresist layer 12 to shield the semiconductor substrate 1, P-type impurity ions, N-type impurity ions are implanted into the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 1 and pushed into the well, so as to obtain a substrate P-type base region 15 and a substrate N + source region 16 located above the substrate P-type base region 15 in the central region of the semiconductor substrate 1, the substrate N + source region 16 is adjacent to the substrate P-type base region 15, and the substrate P-type base region 15 is located above the bottom of the substrate unit cell trench 4. Meanwhile, after the substrate P-type base region 15 is obtained, the substrate P-type body region 14 can be obtained by using the substrate P-type layer 11 of the termination region of the semiconductor substrate 1.
As shown in fig. 6, the substrate second photoresist layer 12 is removed, and an insulating dielectric layer is deposited on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 1, so as to obtain a substrate insulating dielectric layer 17 covering the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 1. After the substrate insulating medium layer 17 is obtained, a substrate third photoresist layer 18 is obtained by coating on the substrate insulating medium layer 17, and the substrate third photoresist layer 18 can be subjected to photoetching by using a substrate third mask 19 to obtain a plurality of substrate third photoresist layer windows 20 penetrating through the substrate third photoresist layer 18.
As shown in fig. 7, the substrate insulating dielectric layer 17 is etched by using the substrate third photoresist layer 18 and the substrate third photoresist layer window 20, so as to obtain a substrate source contact hole 21 penetrating through the substrate insulating dielectric layer 17, where the substrate source contact hole 21 is directly corresponding to the substrate third photoresist layer window 20, and the substrate source contact hole 21 further penetrates through the substrate N + source region 16 below the substrate insulating dielectric layer 17.
As shown in fig. 8, the third photoresist layer 18 is removed and metal deposition is performed on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 1 to obtain a front surface metal layer covering the bottom of the substrate insulating dielectric layer 17.
After obtaining the substrate front metal layer, coating the substrate front metal layer to obtain a substrate fourth photoresist layer 21, and performing photolithography on the substrate fourth photoresist layer 21 by using a substrate fourth mask 22 to obtain a substrate fourth photoresist layer window 24 penetrating through the substrate fourth photoresist layer 21.
And etching the substrate front metal layer by using the substrate fourth photoresist layer 21 and the substrate fourth photoresist layer window 24 to obtain a substrate front metal layer window 23 penetrating through the substrate front metal layer, and dividing the substrate front metal layer by using the substrate front metal layer window 23 to obtain a substrate front cellular metal layer 65 and a substrate front terminal metal layer 68, wherein the substrate front cellular metal layer 65 can be in ohmic contact with the substrate N + source region 16 and the substrate P-type base region 15, and the substrate terminal metal layer 20 is positioned at the outer ring of the central region of the semiconductor substrate 1.
As shown in fig. 9, a passivation material is deposited over the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 1 to obtain a substrate passivation layer 25 on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 1, the substrate passivation layer 25 overlying the substrate front surface cell metal layer 65 and the substrate front surface terminal metal layer 68.
Coating the substrate passivation layer 25 to obtain a substrate fifth photoresist layer 26, photoetching the substrate fifth photoresist layer 26 by using a substrate fifth mask 27 to obtain a substrate fifth photoresist layer window 28 penetrating through the substrate fifth photoresist layer 26, etching the substrate passivation layer 25 by using the substrate fifth photoresist layer 26 and the substrate fifth photoresist layer window 28 to obtain a substrate passivation layer window 29 penetrating through the substrate passivation layer 25, and exposing the cell metal layer 65 on the front surface of the substrate by using the substrate passivation layer window 29.
After the above steps are performed, the substrate fifth photoresist layer 26 needs to be removed, and a required back surface process is performed on the back surface of the semiconductor substrate 1 to obtain a required back surface structure, and an IGBT device or a MOSFET device can be prepared according to the difference of the back surface structures.
As can be seen from the above specific process steps, the substrate P-type layer 11 is prepared on the upper portion of the semiconductor substrate 1, and then the substrate P-type base region 15 and the substrate P-type body region 14 can be formed through the substrate P-type layer 11, and the substrate P-type layer 11 is obtained by implanting P-type impurity ions on the entire front surface of the semiconductor substrate 1. In order to achieve a relatively high breakdown voltage, the junction depth of the substrate P-type layer 11 after being pushed into the well cannot be much different from the depths of the substrate cell trench 4 and the substrate terminal trench 5 in the semiconductor substrate 1, otherwise, the prepared semiconductor device is prone to breakdown at the bottom of the substrate cell trench 4 adjacent to the substrate terminal trench 5, such as the breakdown region 30 in fig. 10.
When the terminal breakdown voltage is improved by increasing the junction depth of the substrate P-type layer 11, the junction depth of the basic P-type base region 15 in the substrate cell region is correspondingly increased, which may result in the increase of the channel length of the cell region of the device and the appearance of the JFET effect, thereby increasing the on-state voltage drop of the device. Therefore, the closest prior art has a trade-off between achieving the minimum on-state voltage drop and the highest BV, and cannot achieve the optimal values at the same time.

In the case where there are multiple substrate P + implant regions 42, adjacent substrate P + implant regions 42 are separated by a substrate terminal P type body region 49.
In fig. 22, the substrate P + implant region 42, which contacts the sidewalls of the substrate cell second trench 67, also wraps the bottom wall of the cell edge transition region trench 70. In specific implementation, when the substrate P + implantation region 42 is prepared, the substrate P + implantation region 42 can cover the outer sidewall of the cell edge transition region trench 70 or can cover the bottom wall of the cell edge transition region trench 70 at the same time according to the implantation energy and the annealing temperature of the P-type impurity ions. Whether the substrate P + implantation region 42 covers the bottom wall of the cell edge transition region trench 70 or not, the junction depth of the substrate P + implantation region 42 in the semiconductor substrate 31 is greater than the depths of the substrate cell first trench 33, the substrate cell second trench 67, and the cell edge transition region trench 70, that is, the substrate P + implantation region 42 is located below the bottoms of the substrate cell first trench 33, the substrate cell second trench 67, and the cell edge transition region trench 70 at the bottom of the semiconductor substrate 31.
When there are a plurality of substrate P + implant regions 42, the cell edge transition region trench 70 is only within the substrate P + implant region 42 that is in contact with the outer sidewalls of the substrate cell second trench 67. In addition, a plurality of cell edge transition region trenches 70 may be further formed in the substrate P + implant region 42 contacting the outer sidewalls of the substrate cell second trenches 67, and the substrate P + implant region 42 separates adjacent cell edge transition region trenches 70.

In addition, when the termination region also adopts the trench structure, the substrate termination trench 34 can be obtained at the same time, and the substrate termination trench 34 has the same depth as the substrate cell first trench 33 and the substrate cell second trench 67. The number of substrate termination trenches 34 in the termination region can be selected as desired, and the cross-sectional view of fig. 11 shows two substrate termination trenches 34 in the mid-termination region. Similarly, the number of the first trenches 33 of the bottom cells in the cell region can be selected according to actual requirements, but in the cross-sectional view, there is only one second trench 67 of the bottom cell between the first trench 33 of the bottom cell adjacent to the terminal region and the terminal trench 34 of the bottom cell adjacent to the cell region.

The following is a description of a specific process.
As shown in fig. 13, 14, 15, and 16, the step 3 specifically includes the following steps:

as shown in fig. 13, a substrate second photoresist layer 40 is coated on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 31, and the substrate second photoresist layer 40 is subjected to photolithography by using a substrate second mask to obtain a substrate second photoresist layer window 41 penetrating through the substrate second photoresist layer 40. Specifically, the substrate second photoresist layer window 41 is between the substrate cell second trench 67 and the substrate terminal trench 34 adjacent to the cell region.
After obtaining the substrate second photoresist layer window 41, the substrate second photoresist layer 40 is used to shield the semiconductor substrate 31, and P-type impurity ions are implanted above the semiconductor substrate 31, where the type of the P-type impurity ions can be selected according to the requirement, which is known to those skilled in the art. After the P-type impurity ions are implanted, the drive-in process is carried out to obtain a substrate P + implantation region 42, and the substrate P + implantation region 42 is in positive correspondence with the substrate second photoresist layer window 41. On the top plan after the process, the obtained substrate P + implantation regions 42 are annular, and the number of the substrate P + implantation regions 42 can be selected according to actual needs.
Specifically, the substrate P + implant region 42 adjacent to the substrate cell second trench 67 is in contact with the sidewall of the substrate cell second trench 67 adjacent to the termination region, the depth of the substrate P + implant region 42 within the semiconductor substrate 31 being greater than the depth of the substrate cell first trench 33, the substrate cell second trench 67, and the substrate termination trench 34 within the semiconductor substrate 31; i.e., the bottom of the substrate P + implant region 42 is located below the substrate cell second trench 67. After the substrate P + implant region 42 is prepared, the substrate second photoresist layer 40 is removed from the front side of the semiconductor substrate 31 using techniques commonly used in the art.
In the embodiment of the present invention, after the substrate P + implantation region 42 is prepared, the substrate P + implantation region 42 in contact with the sidewall of the substrate cell second trench 67 adjacent to the terminal region can cover the cell edge transition region trench 70, that is, the substrate P + implantation region 42 can cover the outer sidewall and the bottom wall of the cell edge transition region trench 70, as shown in fig. 22.
Step 3.2, performing P-type impurity ion implantation again on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 31 to obtain a substrate P-type layer 43 penetrating through the semiconductor substrate 31, wherein the substrate P-type layer 43 is located above the groove bottoms of the substrate cell first groove 33, the substrate cell second groove 67 and the substrate terminal groove 34;
as shown in fig. 14, P-type impurity ion implantation is performed again on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 31 to obtain a substrate P-type layer 43 penetrating through the semiconductor substrate 31, wherein the substrate P-type layer 43 extends vertically downward from the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 31, and the bottom of the substrate P-type layer 43 is located above the respective groove bottoms of the substrate cell first trench 33, the substrate cell second trench 67, and the substrate termination trench 34. The doping concentration of the substrate P-type layer 43 is less than the doping concentration of the substrate P + implant region 42.
Step 3.3, performing N-type impurity ion implantation and P-type impurity ion implantation above the semiconductor substrate 31, obtaining a substrate P-type base region 47 located in the cell region by using the implanted P-type impurity ions and the substrate P-type layer 43 in the cell region, obtaining a substrate N + source region 48 located above the substrate P-type base region 47 by using the implanted N-type impurity ions, wherein the substrate N + source region 48 is adjacent to the substrate P-type base region 47; at the same time, a substrate termination P-type body region 49 can be obtained with the substrate P-type layer 43 in the termination region.
As shown in fig. 15, a substrate third photoresist layer 44 is first coated on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 31, and then the substrate third photoresist layer 44 is subjected to photolithography by using a substrate third mask 45 to obtain a substrate third photoresist layer window 46 penetrating through the substrate third photoresist layer 44, and a corresponding region in the cell region can be exposed through the substrate third photoresist layer window 46. In fig. 15, the substrate P + implantation region 42 contacting the sidewall of the substrate cell second trench 67 is partially exposed, but in the specific implementation, the substrate cell second trench 67 and all the substrate P + implantation regions 42 may be shielded by the substrate third photoresist layer 44.
After a third photoresist layer window 46 of the substrate is obtained, injecting N-type impurity ions and P-type impurity ions above the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 31 by using the third photoresist layer 44 of the substrate and the third photoresist layer window 46 of the substrate, and performing a drive-in after the injection, so that a substrate P-type base region 47 positioned in a cellular region can be obtained by using the injected P-type impurity ions and a substrate P-type layer 43 in the cellular region, a substrate N + source region 48 positioned above the substrate P-type base region 47 can be obtained by using the injected N-type impurity ions, and the substrate N + source region 48 is adjacent to the substrate P-type base region 47; at the same time, a substrate termination P-type body region 49 can be obtained with the substrate P-type layer 43 in the termination region. In the embodiment of the present invention, the doping concentration of the substrate P-type base region 47 is greater than that of the terminal P-type body region 49, i.e. the region of the substrate P-type layer 43 not implanted with P-type impurity ions and N-type impurity ions can form the substrate terminal P-type body region 49. The depth of substrate P-type base region 47 in semiconductor substrate 31 corresponds to the depth of substrate terminal P-type body region 49.
When the substrate P + implantation region 42 in contact with the sidewall of the substrate cell second trench 67 has a portion not blocked by the substrate third photoresist layer 44, the substrate P-type base region 47 and the substrate N + source region 48 in contact with the substrate P + implantation region 42 can be obtained after implantation of the N-type impurity ions and the P-type impurity ions. For the substrate P + implantation region 42 contacting with the sidewall of the substrate cell second trench 67, the substrate P-type base region 47 and the substrate N + source region 48 contacting with the substrate P + implantation region 42 also contact with the outer wall of the substrate cell second trench 67 adjacent to the termination region. When the substrate P + implantation region 42 is completely covered by the substrate third photoresist layer 44, the substrate P + implantation region 42 is not affected when the N-type impurity ions and the P-type impurity ions are implanted. In fig. 16, a case is shown where substrate P-type base region 47 and substrate N + source region 48 are formed on substrate P + implant region 42. As can be seen from the above description, when a plurality of substrate P + implant regions 42 are present between the substrate cell second trench 67 and the substrate termination trench 34 adjacent to the cell region, the adjacent substrate P + implant regions 42 are separated by the substrate termination P-type body region 49, and the substrate P + implant region 42 is in contact with the substrate termination P-type body region 49 passing through the separation. In fig. 16, substrate P + implant region 42 is in contact with substrate termination P-type body region 49 for the case where there is only one substrate P + implant region 42. In fig. 22, the cell edge transition region trench 70 is located in the substrate P + implant region 42 in contact with the substrate cell second trench 67, and also in contact with the substrate P-type base region 47 and the substrate N + source region 48 at the outer sidewall of the substrate cell second trench 67 adjacent the termination region.
In the above process, after the N-type impurity ions and the P-type impurity ions are performed, the substrate P-type base region 47 and the substrate N + source region 48 can be formed at the same time through a required annealing process, and the specific processes of performing the ion implantation and the annealing are the same as those in the prior art, and are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described herein again. In addition, since the annealing temperature of N + cannot be too high, the drive well depth of the substrate P-type base region 47 is limited during annealing.
In order to improve the depth of the well-pushing of the substrate P-type base region 47, a substrate transition medium layer can be deposited on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 31, a transition medium layer photoresist layer is coated on the substrate transition medium layer, and the transition medium layer photoresist layer is subjected to photoetching by using a transition medium layer mask to obtain a patterned transition medium layer photoresist layer. And etching the substrate transition medium layer by using the patterned transition medium layer photoresist layer to obtain a substrate transition medium layer window penetrating through the substrate transition medium layer. After obtaining the substrate transition dielectric layer window, performing P-type impurity ion implantation above the front surface of the semiconductor substrate 31, after the P-type impurity ion implantation, removing the transition dielectric layer photoresist layer and performing thermal drive-in to obtain the substrate P-type base region 47, wherein the junction depth of the obtained substrate P-type base region 47 is greater than that obtained by the above process.

After obtaining the substrate N + source region 48, removing the substrate transition dielectric layer from the semiconductor substrate 31; of course, the substrate transition dielectric layer may also be reserved according to actual needs, as long as the substrate transition dielectric layer does not affect the preparation of the power semiconductor device, which is specifically familiar to those skilled in the art, and is not described herein again.
In specific implementation, the P-type impurity ion implantation condition, the N-type impurity ion implantation condition, the hot-trap process after the P-type impurity ion implantation, and the hot-trap process after the N-type impurity ion implantation are all the same as those of the prior art, and for example, the technical scheme disclosed in the publication number CN110047757A can be referred to, and the specific process conditions and processes are well known to those skilled in the art, and are not described herein again.
