Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a trench type power semiconductor device with a surrounding type source region and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Shielded gate trench field effect transistors SGT have been widely used in important low voltage areas such as power management. This is because the SGT has a high channel density and a good charge compensation effect. In addition, the shielding gate structure effectively isolates the coupling between the metal gate and the drain, thereby remarkably reducing the transmission capacitance. This enables the SGT to have lower specific on-resistance, less conduction and switching losses, and higher operating frequency.
In the related art, a source structure having a composite P-type source region and N-type source region is adopted in a transistor, wherein the P-type source region short-circuits a body region and a source of the transistor. The source region structure usually adopts an interdigital strip structure, namely a P-type source region and an N-type source region are arranged on a substrate region in parallel, and the P-type source region and the N-type source region are both divided into the connection area of the source region and the substrate region.
