The semiconductor device provided by the embodiment of the invention comprises a high-voltage depletion type silicon carbide junction field effect transistor (D-mode SiC JFET) and a low-voltage enhancement type gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor (E-mode GaN HEMT).
The high-voltage depletion type silicon carbide junction field effect transistor comprises a first grid electrode, a first drain electrode and a first source electrode.
The low voltage enhancement mode gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor includes a second gate, a second drain, and a second source.
In this embodiment, the first gate of the high-voltage depletion type silicon carbide junction field effect transistor and the second source of the low-voltage enhancement type gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor are connected, and the source of the semiconductor device in which the high-voltage depletion type silicon carbide junction field effect transistor and the low-voltage enhancement type gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor are integrated is the second source.
The first source of the high voltage depletion silicon carbide junction field effect transistor is connected to the second drain of the low voltage enhancement gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor.
The grid electrode of the semiconductor device integrated by the high-voltage depletion type silicon carbide junction field effect transistor and the low-voltage enhancement type gallium nitride high-electron mobility transistor is a second grid electrode, and the drain electrode is a first drain electrode.
For example, as shown in fig. 1, e-GaN represents the low-voltage enhancement gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor side, and SiC JFET represents the high-voltage depletion silicon carbide junction field effect transistor side.
G JFET 、D JFET And S is JFET The first grid electrode, the first drain electrode and the first source electrode respectively correspond to the high-voltage depletion type silicon carbide junction type field effect transistor.
G GaN 、D GaN And S is GaN The second grid electrode, the second drain electrode and the second source electrode of the low-voltage enhanced gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor are respectively corresponding.

According to the semiconductor device provided by the embodiment of the invention, through structural design, the high-voltage depletion type silicon carbide junction field effect transistor and the low-voltage enhancement type gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor are integrated in one device, so that the semiconductor device with the common-source common-gate structure is obtained, and the advantages of high GaN switching speed and high SiC breakdown voltage are combined, so that the working efficiency and the working reliability of the semiconductor device can be effectively improved.
In some embodiments, a high voltage depletion silicon carbide junction field effect transistor includes a first gate region and a first source region, the first gate being connected to the first gate region, the first source being connected to the first source region, a first abrupt junction being provided between the first gate region and the first source region.
The first gate region is connected to the first gate, and the first gate region is a P-doped silicon carbide region in a high voltage depletion silicon carbide junction field effect transistor, for example, the first gate region may be a p+ SiC region as shown in fig. 6.
A first source region is connected to the first source, the first source region being an N-doped silicon carbide region in a high voltage depletion silicon carbide junction field effect transistor, for example, the first source region being an N + SiC region as shown in fig. 6.
It will be appreciated that the current density increases sharply as the junction between the gate and the channel becomes more abrupt due to saturation of the drain.
In this embodiment, a first abrupt junction is provided between the first gate region and the first source region, and the high-voltage depletion type silicon carbide junction field effect transistor becomes a junction field effect transistor having an abrupt junction between the gate and the channel, which can increase the drain current density and reduce the on-resistance.
The abrupt junction is where the impurity concentration is abrupt from the concentration of acceptor impurities to the concentration of donor impurities at the interface, and the graded junction is where the impurity concentration gradually varies from the acceptor impurity region to the donor impurity region.
According to the space charge distribution condition and the thickness difference of the transition region, the thickness of the abrupt junction is only a few lattice constants, and the thickness of the graded junction can reach a few carrier diffusion lengths.
The breakdown voltage (breakdown voltage, BV) of a junction field effect transistor is determined by the degree to which the barrier of the drain bias to the channel region is reduced. For graded junctions, the gate region of low doping concentration near the channel is affected by the drain bias, which tends to lower the barrier, so narrow channels need to be shielded from high voltages.
For abrupt junctions, a wider channel may block high voltages, a gate region of low doping concentration is narrow, and a first abrupt junction formed between a first gate region and a first source region may increase current density without decreasing breakdown voltage.
The following describes the mode of operation of a high voltage depletion silicon carbide junction field effect transistor and low voltage enhancement gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor integrated cascode semiconductor device.

Wherein, VTH_JFET is the threshold of the turn-on voltage of the high-voltage depletion type silicon carbide junction field effect transistor.
The low-voltage enhancement-mode gan high-electron mobility transistor as a switch is in an off state, and the driving voltage Vgs corresponds to bit 0, and the low-voltage enhancement-mode gan high-electron mobility transistor as a switch has no current, and therefore, the semiconductor device current id=0.
The high-voltage depletion type silicon carbide junction field effect transistor is in an on state, -Vgs_JFET= -Vds_GaN < Vds < -VTH_GaN.
Wherein vgs_jfet is the voltage between the first gate and the first source of the high voltage depletion silicon carbide junction field effect transistor, vds_gan is the voltage between the second drain and the second source of the low voltage enhancement gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor, vth_gan is the turn-on voltage threshold of the low voltage enhancement gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor.
The voltage Vds between the drain and the source of the semiconductor device is the voltage that the low-voltage enhancement gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor in the switch tube receives, i.e. vds_gan is equal to Vds.
In some embodiments, in a second forward blocking mode of the semiconductor device, the low-voltage enhancement mode gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor and the high-voltage depletion mode silicon carbide junction field effect transistor are both off, and the drain-source voltage of the semiconductor device is the voltage to which the low-voltage enhancement mode gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor and the high-voltage depletion mode silicon carbide junction field effect transistor are subjected.
In this embodiment, both the low-voltage enhancement gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor and the high-voltage depletion silicon carbide junction field effect transistor are turned off, the voltage Vds between the drain and the source of the semiconductor device satisfies-vth_jfet < Vds, and the voltage vgs=0 between the gate and the source of the semiconductor device.
Wherein, VTH_JFET is the threshold of the turn-on voltage of the high-voltage depletion type silicon carbide junction field effect transistor.
The voltage Vds between the drain and source of the semiconductor device is continuously rising, keeping the-vth_jfet < Vds, the high voltage depletion silicon carbide junction field effect transistor in an off state, and its driving voltage is lower than the threshold voltage.
The voltage Vds between the drain and the source of the semiconductor device is commonly borne by a low-voltage enhancement gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor and a high-voltage depletion silicon carbide junction field effect transistor.
In some embodiments, in a first forward conduction mode of the semiconductor device, both the low voltage enhancement mode gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor and the high voltage depletion mode silicon carbide junction field effect transistor are on.
In this embodiment, the driving voltage of the semiconductor device, that is, the voltage Vgs between the gate and the source of the semiconductor device is higher than the turn-on voltage threshold vth_gan of the low-voltage enhanced gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor, both the low-voltage enhanced gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor and the high-voltage depletion type silicon carbide junction field effect transistor can be turned on.
In some embodiments, the semiconductor device may further include a first metal connection structure and a second metal connection structure.
The first grid electrode and the second source electrode are connected through a first metal connecting structure, and the first source electrode and the second drain electrode are connected through a second metal connecting structure.
In this embodiment, the connection is made by providing a first metal connection structure when connecting the first gate of the high voltage depletion silicon carbide junction field effect transistor and the second source of the low voltage enhancement gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor.
When the first source electrode of the high-voltage depletion type silicon carbide junction field effect transistor and the second drain electrode of the low-voltage enhancement type gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor are connected, the connection is performed by arranging a second metal connection structure.
In actual implementation, the first metal connection structure and the second metal connection structure may be deposited by metal deposition at corresponding locations between the high voltage depletion silicon carbide junction field effect transistor and the low voltage enhancement gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor.
It should be noted that, metal may not be deposited between the first gate and the first source of the high-voltage depletion type silicon carbide junction field effect transistor so as not to cause a short circuit.
It can be understood that in the structural design of the semiconductor device, design parameters such as length, width, height, doping concentration and the like of the device can be controlled to improve the performance of the semiconductor device.
