Description

Preparation method of silicon carbide epitaxial wafer for high-voltage and ultrahigh-voltage device
Technical Field
The invention belongs to a silicon carbide epitaxial growth method, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a silicon carbide epitaxial wafer for a high-voltage and ultrahigh-voltage device.
Background
The third generation semiconductor silicon carbide material has the advantages of high thermal conductivity, high breakdown field strength, high saturated electron drift rate and the like, can meet the new requirements of modern electronic technology on severe conditions such as high temperature, high power, high voltage, high frequency, radiation resistance and the like, and is also the strategic direction of the semiconductor technology in China in the future. With the continuous popularization and development of the third-generation semiconductor material, the semiconductor material plays a key role in the industries of power electronics, aerospace, new energy, smart power grids, electric vehicles and the like.
Light is irradiated on the surface of the semiconductor, and absorption is caused. Photon absorption simultaneously generates one majority carrier and one minority carrier, referred to as non-equilibrium carriers. In many semiconductor materials, the number of photogenerated non-equilibrium carriers is much less than the majority carriers due to doping that are inherently present in the material. Thus, the number of majority carriers in a semiconductor is substantially unchanged upon illumination, while minority carriers are significantly increased.
The average time of the non-equilibrium carriers from generation to recombination is called the non-equilibrium carrier lifetime (minority carrier lifetime), denoted by τ. It reflects the decay rate of minority carrier concentration. The influence of unbalanced minority carriers is dominant over unbalanced majority carriers, so the lifetime of unbalanced carriers is often referred to as minority carrier lifetime, abbreviated as minority carrier lifetime
Minority carrier lifetime is an important parameter of semiconductor materials and semiconductor devices, and directly reflects the quality of the materials and whether the characteristics of the devices meet requirements. In addition, the minority carrier lifetime is also a key factor influencing the characteristics of high-voltage bipolar power devices such as SiC IGBTs, and for bipolar semiconductor devices which mainly operate by means of minority carrier transport (mainly diffusion), in order to ensure that the minority carrier recombination in the base region is as little as possible (so as to obtain a large current amplification factor), the longer the minority carrier lifetime of the base region is, the better the minority carrier lifetime is. For IGBT switching devices, the direct effect of minority carrier lifetime reduction is to reduce the conductance modulation effect. Therefore, the service life of minority carriers is prolonged, which is an important requirement for manufacturing high-voltage ultrahigh-voltage devices and has important significance for the development of semiconductor devices.
In order to reduce conduction loss when manufacturing a high-voltage ultra-high device, conductivity modulation based on injection of minority carriers needs to be generated by prolonging the carrier lifetime of a drift layer, so that the conduction voltage is reduced. Therefore, in order to extend the carrier lifetime of the drift layer, it is necessary to reduce crystal defects which are present in the epitaxial film and cause the lifetime to be shortened. For example, as being present in an n-type SiC epitaxial film, so-called Z 1/2 Center and EH 6/7 The central point defect is the major crystal defect that results in a shortened carrier lifetime. The literature (n.t. son, et al, phys.rev.lett.109(2012)187603) refers to these Z' s 1/2 Center and EH 6/7 The center is a crystal defect caused by a carbon (C) vacancy in the SiC epitaxial film. Therefore, in order to reduce crystal defects in the SiC epitaxial film, it is necessary to form the SiC epitaxial film with few carbon vacancies. As a method for reducing carbon vacancies in SiC epitaxial films, it has been proposed to form a SiC epitaxial film by chemical vapor deposition and then further perform carbon ion implantationAnd high-temperature annealing heat treatment or long-time high-temperature sacrificial oxidation.
The method of high-temperature annealing after carbon implantation is easy to introduce new defects in the process of high-energy carbon ion implantation; in severe cases, the damaged layer on the surface of the epitaxial layer can not be repaired after long-time annealing, so that the using effect of the device is influenced, and meanwhile, the effect is not ideal enough for the thick-layer silicon carbide epitaxy due to the limitation of the carbon injection depth.
