Abstract
本发明属于功率半导体技术领域,涉及一种具有倒梯形槽的垂直GaN二极管。本发明主要特征在于:通过倒梯形槽结构设计,新件构在部分肖特基阳极金属与势垒层之间插入介质层,并在体内引入P‑GaN高掺杂阻挡层与碳掺杂GaN阻挡层以有效降低势垒层中电场;因此,相较于传统电流孔径垂直电子晶体管(CAVET),本发明不仅增加倒梯形底部电流孔径横向尺寸以降低导通电阻,还能能有效抑制反向泄漏电流;同时,本发明兼具横向GaN HEMT器件中二维电子气作为沟道以降低器件导通电阻的优势。
Description
技术领域
本发明属于功率半导体技术领域,涉及一种具有倒梯形槽的垂直GaN二极管。
背景技术
与第一代半导体材料Si相比,第三代宽禁带半导体材料GaN具有更为优秀的材料物理特性,其禁带宽度、电子迁移率、电子饱和速率、临界击穿电场、热导率和高/低频Baliga优值等物理参数均远高于Si材料。AlGaN/GaN肖特基势垒二极管(SBD)在大功率开关应用中表现出优异的性能,例如开关速度快、导通电阻低等。
但由于肖特基势垒在高电压偏置条件下降低,SBD通常具有较大的反向泄漏电流,为了减少开关电路中二极管的静态功率损耗,需要尽量降低反向泄漏电流。常用的几种降低器件泄漏电流的技术有肖特基结终端、AlGaN背势垒技术等。
对于传统的电流孔径垂直电子晶体管(CAVET),当器件处于关断状态时,为了降低通过电流孔径到达栅极和源极的反向泄漏电流,通常将电流孔径的横向尺寸设计的较小,但这会导致导通电阻的增加以及饱和电流的降低。
发明内容
本发明基于GaN功率二极管应用的需要,提出一种具有倒梯形槽的垂直GaN二极管。
本发明的技术方案是:
一种具有倒梯形槽的垂直GaN二极管,包括沿器件垂直方向自下而上依次层叠设置的第一导电材料1、N型高掺杂GaN层2、N型GaN漂移区3、P型高掺杂GaN阻挡层4、碳掺杂GaN阻挡层5;
所述P型高掺杂GaN阻挡层4、碳掺杂GaN阻挡层5上设置有倒梯形凹槽,在凹槽底部和侧壁分布有未掺杂GaN层6,且未掺杂GaN层6还沿倒梯形凹槽外部平面向两侧延伸至覆盖GaN阻挡层5上表面;在未掺杂GaN层6上表面覆盖有势垒层7,在势垒层7上表面覆盖有介质层8;在介质层8上表面远离倒梯形凹槽的一侧设置有凹槽,第二导电材料9覆盖在介质层8上表面并填充在凹槽中,位于凹槽中的第二导电材料9下表面与势垒层7上表面接触;
所述第一导电材料1与所述N型高掺杂GaN层2形成欧姆接触,所述第一导电材料1的引出端为阴极;所述第二导电材料9与所述的势垒层7形成肖特基接触,且所述的第二导电材料9的引出端为阳极。
进一步的,所述势垒层7采用的材料为AlN、AlGaN、InGaN、InAlN中的一种或几种的组合;
本发明的有益效果是:相较于传统电流孔径垂直电子晶体管(CAVET),本发明在增加电流孔径横向尺寸以降低导通电阻的同时,不会引起反向泄漏电流的增加;器件通过倒梯形槽的结构设计,允许器件在部分肖特基阳极金属与势垒层之间插入介质层,有利于降低器件的反向泄漏电流,摆脱电流孔径横向尺寸设计的限制;与器件横向方向呈一定角度的异质结区域,当阳极电压为0V时,半极性面降低了该区域的二维电子气浓度,实现了器件的常关功能;P-GaN高掺杂阻挡层与碳掺杂GaN阻挡层进一步抑制了器件关断状态下的泄漏电流,有利于提升器件关断特性;此外,器件兼具GaN横向器件与纵向器件的优势,横向AlGaN/GaN异质结构引入的二维电子气有利于降低器件的导通电阻,纵向GaN漂移区使得器件提高击穿电压的同时不会扩大芯片尺寸。
附图说明
图1是实施例1的结构示意图。
具体实施方式

沿器件垂直方向,所述碳掺杂GaN阻挡层5上表面覆盖有未掺杂GaN层6;其中部分所述的未掺杂GaN层6沿器件垂直方向贯穿所述的碳掺杂GaN阻挡层5与所述的P型高掺杂GaN阻挡层4,使得该部分未掺杂GaN层6的下表面与所述的N型GaN漂移区3的上表面、所述的P型高掺杂GaN阻挡层4的侧壁和所述的碳掺杂GaN阻挡层5的侧壁接触,形成倒梯形凹槽;
沿器件垂直方向,所述的未掺杂GaN层6上表面自下而上依次覆盖有势垒层7、介质层8和第二导电材料9,其中部分所述的第二导电材料9沿器件垂直方向在所述的倒梯形凹槽上方以外区域贯穿所述的介质层8,并与所述的势垒层7的上表面和所述的介质层8的侧壁接触;
