And the parasitic capacitance characteristics are crucial to the turn-on and turn-off processes of the power super-junction MOSFET. In order to increase the switching speed of the device to reduce dynamic loss, the super junction needs to be reduced to reduce the gate-drain capacitance C of the MOSFETGD(ii) a However, the gate-drain capacitance CGDToo little will make the switch dv/dt too large, which tends to increase the current and voltage overshoot and oscillation amplitude, making the device EMI noisy and even burning the device.

Detailed Description
The present invention provides a super junction MOSFET with improved gate capacitance characteristics, and the embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to specific embodiments, and other advantages and effects of the present invention will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art from the disclosure herein. The invention is capable of other and different embodiments and of being practiced or of being carried out in various ways, and its several details are capable of modification in various respects, all without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
As described in the background art, the switching characteristics are severely affected by the characteristic nonlinearity of the parasitic capacitance of the super-junction MOSFET device, the switching speed of the device is increased to reduce dynamic loss, and a low gate-to-drain capacitance CGD is required; however, too small gate-drain capacitance CGD may cause excessive switch dv/dt, which may easily increase current and voltage overshoot and oscillation amplitude, cause excessive EMI noise, and even cause burning of the device. In order to solve the contradiction between the switching speed and the EMI noise of the gate-drain capacitor, the change relation of the gate-drain capacitor along with the drain-source voltage needs to be changed, so that the CGD of the gate-drain capacitor under low drain-source voltage is smaller, the switching speed is ensured, the CGD of the gate-drain capacitor under high drain-source voltage is larger, the condition that the capacitor is steeply changed along with the change of the drain-source voltage is relieved, and the EMI noise is inhibited.
Conventional super junction MOSFET product As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2 shows the gate-drain capacitance C of conventional super junction MOSFET deviceGDWhich may be equivalent to a gate capacitance Cox is connected in series with a semiconductor-side capacitance formed by capacitances Ct and Cb. When the drain electrode is connected with the working potential and the gate-source electrode is respectively grounded, the top of the N-type semiconductor column and the gate electrode form longitudinal depletion, the depletion action forms a potential barrier capacitance Ct, the device area is A, the element charge is q, and the semiconductor dielectric constant isDoping N under the grid0The external drain-source voltage of the device is VDSThe capacitance satisfies:
Referring to fig. 3, at the bottom of the moderately doped N-type semiconductor column, the depletion region is close to the drain region with high doping concentration, the depletion line is bent, and the longitudinal electric field near the depletion line is coupled with the gate electrode to form a capacitor CbThe coupling capacitor CbThe distributed capacitance can be formed by the width W of the half cell, the longitudinal charge distribution Q (x), and the electric field peak E at the top of the N-type semiconductor columntmAnd bottom electric field peak EbmExpressed as:
As shown in FIG. 2, when the drain voltage is low, the alternately arranged PN semiconductor columns are laterally depleted, the formed depletion line is not pinched off, the capacitance at one side of the semiconductor in the gate-drain capacitance is mainly composed of a barrier capacitance Ct with a small width at the top of the N-type semiconductor column, and CbTo gate drain capacitance CGDThe contribution of (c) is negligible; as shown in FIG. 3, when the drain voltage is high, the depletion region pinches off, the barrier capacitance Ct disappears, and the gate-drain capacitance CGDCoupling capacitor C formed by N-type semiconductor column bottom and grid electrodebAnd (4) forming.
As shown in fig. 4, the super junction MOSFET device with improved gate capacitance characteristics according to the embodiment of the present invention includes: the transistor comprises a source metal layer 1, a highly doped second conductivity type semiconductor JFET region 6, a moderately doped second conductivity type semiconductor depletion region expansion layer 7, a moderately doped first conductivity type semiconductor column 10, a moderately doped second conductivity type semiconductor column region 9, a highly doped second conductivity type semiconductor depletion region compression layer 11, a highly doped second conductivity type semiconductor drain region 12 and a drain metal layer 13; a polycrystalline silicon gate electrode 2 is arranged in a gate insulating oxide layer 3 on the upper surface of a medium-high doped second type conductivity type semiconductor JFET region 6, high-doped first type conductivity type semiconductor body regions 8 are arranged on the left side and the right side of the medium-high doped second type conductivity type semiconductor JFET region 6, and a heavily doped first type conductivity type semiconductor ohmic contact region 5 and a heavily doped second type conductivity type semiconductor source region 4 are arranged on the upper surface in the highly doped first type conductivity type semiconductor body regions 8; the polycrystalline silicon gate electrode 2 and the highly doped first conductivity type semiconductor body region 8 and the polycrystalline silicon gate electrode 2 and the highly doped second conductivity type semiconductor JFET region 6 are isolated by the gate insulating oxide layer 3; the polycrystalline silicon gate electrode 2 is isolated from the source metal layer 1 through a gate insulating oxide layer 3; a highly doped first type conductivity semiconductor body region 8 is arranged between the heavily doped second type conductivity semiconductor source region 4 and the middle highly doped second type conductivity semiconductor JFET region 6; the upper surface of the heavily doped second conduction type semiconductor source region 4 is contacted with the source metal layer 1 and the grid insulation oxide layer 3; the upper part of the heavily doped first conduction type semiconductor ohmic contact region 5 is contacted with the source electrode metal layer 1; the medium-doped first conductivity type semiconductor column 10 is positioned between the semiconductor columns of the medium-doped second conductivity type semiconductor column region 9, and is respectively connected with the high-doped first conductivity type semiconductor body region 8 and the high-doped second conductivity type semiconductor drain region 12 from top to bottom; the middle-low doped second conductivity type semiconductor depletion region expansion layer 7 is positioned below the middle-high doped second conductivity type semiconductor JFET region 6 and is connected with the middle-low doped second conductivity type semiconductor column region 9; the middle-high doped second conductivity type semiconductor depletion region compression layer 11 is positioned above the middle-high doped second conductivity type semiconductor drain region 12 and is connected with the middle-high doped second conductivity type semiconductor column region 9. The heavy doping, the high doping, the medium doping and the medium-low doping refer to the impurity concentration of semiconductor doping, and on the basis of the impurity concentration of the super-junction MOSFET semiconductor column, the heavy doping is greater than the high doping, the medium doping is greater than the medium doping, and the medium-low doping is greater than the medium doping.
In the embodiment, the medium-low doped second type conductivity semiconductor depletion region expansion layer 7 is introduced below the medium-high doped second type conductivity semiconductor JFET region 6 above the medium-low doped second type conductivity semiconductor column region 9, and the medium-high doped second type conductivity semiconductor depletion region compression layer 11 is introduced at the bottom of the medium-high doped second type conductivity semiconductor column region 9. During the turn-on or turn-off of the device, the drain-source voltage changes from a high value to a low value or from a low value to a high value, and the depletion region shrinks or expands gradually according to a rule without considering the influence of the gate voltage.
Specifically, the invention arranges a highly doped thin JFET region to ensure the current capability and the grid control capability of the device; as shown in fig. 5, compared with fig. 2, when the device has a lower drain-source voltage and the depletion region of the laterally alternating semiconductor pillar region does not pinch off due to the arrangement of the low-doped depletion region extension layer 7 of the second conductivity type semiconductor near the JFET end of the second conductivity type semiconductor pillar region 9 of the present invention, as can be seen from formula (1), the depletion region of the second conductivity type semiconductor under the gate will be significantly extended in the longitudinal direction compared with the conventional structure, so as to obtain a lower gate-drain capacitance under a low leakage voltage; as shown in fig. 6, compared with fig. 3, the highly doped second conductivity type semiconductor depletion region compressive layer 11 is disposed near the buffer layer end, when the drain-source voltage increases to cause pinch-off of the column depletion region, the second conductivity type semiconductor depletion region above the buffer layer is significantly compressed, so as to prevent pinch-off of the column depletion region, and avoid forming a gate-drain capacitor C at this pointGDThe distributed coupling capacitance of the capacitor is suddenly reduced, and the formula (2) shows that the peak value of an electric field is more violent to change along with the drain voltage, so that the grid-drain capacitance under the high drain voltage is higher than that of a conventional structure. This alleviates the abrupt change of the gate-drain capacitance with the voltage change, as shown in fig. 7, the new structure of the invention has smaller gate-drain capacitance at low drain voltage, which improves the switching speed; the super-junction MOSFET has larger gate-drain capacitance under high drain-source voltage, and reduces dv/dt in the switching process, thereby reducing voltage and current overshoot, weakening oscillation, reducing EMI noise of the super-junction MOSFET, and improving the reliability of devices and application systems.
Further, as described above, the devices of the present invention have different doping concentrations therein, and the skilled person can select the impurity concentration based on the doping impurity concentration of the super junction MOSFET semiconductor pillar to be produced, and the present invention is preferably configured as follows: the medium doping is doping with an impurity concentration order of magnitude between 1e14cm-3 and 1e16cm-3, the medium and low doping impurity concentration keeps close order of magnitude to the medium doping impurity concentration and is 1% to 90% of the medium doping impurity concentration, the medium and high doping impurity concentration keeps close order of magnitude to the medium doping impurity concentration and is 2 to 10 times of the medium doping impurity concentration, the high doping is doping with an impurity concentration 1 to 2 orders of magnitude higher than the medium doping, and the heavy doping is doping with an impurity concentration order of magnitude higher than the medium doping by more than 2 orders of magnitude.
Further, as shown in fig. 4, in the present invention, the thickness L of the depletion region extension layer 7 of the low/medium doped second conductivity type semiconductor istShould not exceed the drain-source voltage to reach the pinch-off voltage VpinThe length of the depletion region where the Ct capacitance is located, the excess being ineffective to improve the gate capacitance, and therefore LtAnd the concentration N of the arranged middle-low doped second type conductivity semiconductorlThe relationship of (a) should be satisfied;
The thickness L of the middle-high doped second conduction type semiconductor depletion region compression layer 11bShould not exceed the drain-source voltage to reach the pinch-off voltage VpinThe length of the bending region in which the longitudinal electric field coupled with the gate exists is represented by the approximate relationship between the length of the bending region and the half-cell width W, L, shown in FIG. 8bIt should satisfy:
Ideally, in the specified range of the present invention, the larger the thickness of the low-doped second conductivity type semiconductor depletion region extension layer and the high-doped second conductivity type semiconductor depletion region compression layer is, the more obvious the improvement effect on the gate capacitance is; the thickness of the highly doped second-type conductivity semiconductor JFET region 6 is smaller than 1um, so that the breakdown of the device at the position is avoided while the control capability of the grid electrode is ensured.
