Background
Silicon carbide has many different characteristics from the traditional silicon semiconductor material, the energy band gap of the silicon semiconductor material is 2.8 times of that of silicon, and the insulation breakdown field strength of the silicon semiconductor material is 5.3 times of that of silicon, so that in the field of high-voltage power devices, the silicon carbide device can use an epitaxial layer which is thinner than the silicon material to reach the same voltage withstanding level of the traditional silicon device, and meanwhile, the silicon carbide device has lower on-resistance. At present, the main problem of using silicon carbide to prepare a trench power device is that a large electric field is applied to a gate dielectric layer in a gate trench when the device is operated, so that a gate is easily broken down, and the withstand voltage of the device is affected.

Drawings
In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a brief introduction will be made to the drawings required for describing the embodiment.
Fig. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional structure diagram of an embodiment of a semiconductor device provided by the present invention.
Detailed Description
The technical solution of the present invention will be fully described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. It is to be understood that the use of terms such as "having," "including," and "comprising" in connection with the present invention does not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other elements or groups thereof. Meanwhile, in order to clearly illustrate the embodiments of the present invention, the schematic drawings listed in the accompanying drawings enlarge the thickness of the layers and regions of the present invention, and the listed sizes of the figures do not represent actual sizes.
Fig. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional structure diagram of an embodiment of a semiconductor device provided by the present invention, and as shown in fig. 1, the semiconductor device of the present invention includes a semiconductor layer 20, where the semiconductor layer 20 includes a first n-type semiconductor layer 21, a second n-type semiconductor layer 22, a p-type semiconductor layer 23, and a third n-type semiconductor layer 24, which are sequentially stacked, and optionally, the first n-type semiconductor layer 21 serves as an n-type drain region of the semiconductor device, and the first n-type semiconductor layer 21, the second n-type semiconductor layer 22, the p-type semiconductor layer 23, and the third n-type semiconductor layer 24 are all silicon carbide semiconductor layers.
And gate trenches 41 and source trenches 42 alternately spaced apart and located in the semiconductor layer 20, a bottom of the gate trenches 41 and a bottom of the source trenches 42 being located in the second n-type semiconductor layer 22. The number of gate trenches 41 and source trenches 42 is determined by the specifications of the designed semiconductor device, and only one gate trench 41 and two source trenches 42 are exemplarily shown in the embodiment of the present invention. The depth of the gate trench 41 and the depth of the source trench 42 may be the same, and thus, the gate trench 41 and the source trench 42 may be simultaneously formed in the same etching process.
The p-type semiconductor layer 23 between the gate trench 41 and the source trench 42 serves as a p-type body region of the semiconductor device, and the third n-type semiconductor layer 24 between the gate trench 41 and the source trench 42 serves as an n-type source region of the semiconductor device.
A first conductive layer 25 located within a lower portion of the gate trench 41, the first conductive layer 25 being separated from the second n-type semiconductor layer 22 by a first insulating layer 26, the material of the first insulating layer 26 typically being silicon oxide, the material of the first conductive layer 25 typically being conductive polysilicon, such as p-type doped polysilicon; a second conductive layer 27 located within an upper portion of the gate trench 41, the second conductive layer 27 being separated from the p-type semiconductor layer 23, the third n-type semiconductor layer 24 and the first conductive layer 25 by a second insulating layer 28, the second conductive layer 27 and the second insulating layer 28 forming a gate structure of the device. The material of the second insulating layer 28 may be at least one of silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, and hafnium oxide, or may be another insulating medium with a high dielectric constant, and the material of the second conductive layer 27 may be at least one of titanium, nickel, copper, aluminum, silver, gold, titanium nitride, and tungsten.
The width of the source trench 42 may be greater than the width of the gate trench 41, so that the first insulating layer 26 and the first conductive layer 25 in the gate trench 41 may be more easily formed to simplify the manufacturing process of the semiconductor device of the present invention.
The first conductive layer 25 in the lower portion of the gate trench 41 may be externally connected to a source voltage for increasing an electric field at the bottom of the gate trench 41 and improving a withstand voltage of the semiconductor device. Meanwhile, the thickness of the first insulating layer 26 may be greater than that of the second insulating layer 28, which may protect the gate electrode in the upper portion of the gate trench 41 from being easily broken down.
Optionally, the first conductive layer located in the lower portion of the gate trench may extend upward into the upper portion of the gate trench, and in this case, in the upper portion of the gate trench, the second conductive layer may be located on both sides of the first conductive layer, may surround the upper portion of the first conductive layer, or surround the upper portion of the first conductive layer and cover the upper surface of the first conductive layer, which is not specifically shown in the embodiments of the present invention.
