Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to a structure of a power semiconductor device, in particular to a shielded gate trench type field effect transistor device and a manufacturing method thereof.
Background
The related art background of the conventional shielded gate trench type field effect transistor will be described below. It is noted that corresponding positional words such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "rear", "vertical", "horizontal", "vertical" as described in this document are relative positions corresponding to the reference drawings. The fixing direction is not limited in the specific implementation. It should be noted that the devices in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale. The straight lines shown in the boundaries of the doped regions and trenches in the drawings, and the sharp corners formed by the boundaries, are generally not straight lines and precise angles in practical applications.
The shielded gate trench type field effect transistor is used as a novel power device and has the characteristics of low on-resistance and high switching speed. The structure of the shielded gate trench field effect transistor is characterized in that a gate electrode and a shielded gate electrode which are isolated from each other are arranged in a trench, wherein the shielded gate electrode is positioned below the gate electrode and needs to be connected to upper surface metal.
In the switching process of the field effect transistor device, especially in the occasion that a plurality of field effect transistors are used in parallel, the ratio of the gate-source capacitance (Cgs) to the gate-drain capacitance (Cgd) is improved, and the device damage caused by the incorrect switching-on of the device is prevented. In conventional designs, the ratio of the gate-source capacitance (Cgs) to the gate-drain capacitance (Cgd) is typically determined by the structure of the device.
High reliability applications such as automobiles, rail transit, etc. need to ensure that the parameters of the fet devices remain stable for long periods of use, ensuring circuit safety. However, in the practical application process, water vapor or foreign pollutant ions may invade into the field effect transistor device chip, affecting parameters such as threshold voltage, leakage, breakdown voltage, etc. Therefore, it is desirable to provide a highly reliable device termination area that prevents foreign contamination or mobile ions from entering the chip active area.
In the shielded gate trench field effect transistor, the deep trench structure may cause severe stress on the surface of the chip, and the surface oxide layer and the passivation layer of the terminal area under thermal expansion and cold contraction are easy to crack or delaminate, so that water vapor or foreign pollutant ions are more easy to invade the semiconductor, and the device is invalid.
In addition, some high reliability has certain requirements on electrostatic protection performance of the gate electrode of the device, and a clamp protection circuit, such as a parallel zener diode structure, needs to be arranged between the gate and the source of the field effect transistor. In the field effect transistor integrated with the electrostatic protection circuit, the total process flow generally needs eight to ten photolithography steps, the process cost is high, and the manufacturing process for reducing the photolithography steps is necessary to save the cost.

The second type trench (211) includes at least a shield gate electrode (205). Wherein the shield gate electrode (205) extends to the upper surface of the semiconductor and forms a surface polysilicon layer (247). And a first isolation layer (225), a second isolation layer (226) and a third isolation layer (227) are arranged between the shielding gate electrode (205) and the side wall of the groove.
This embodiment includes at least the following regions: an active region (251), a termination trench region (252), a gate-source capacitance region (253), a stress relief region (254), and an electric field cutoff region (255).

The gate-source capacitance region (253) includes one or more segments of a second type of trench (211) that are parallel to each other, and a gate metal (241) located thereabove. Wherein the shield gate electrode (205) is connected to the source metal layer (240), and a portion of the shield gate electrode (205) extending to the upper surface of the semiconductor and the gate metal (241) form a gate-source capacitance in a vertical direction.

The gate-source capacitance in the vertical direction in the structure can relieve the movement and accumulation of external pollutant positive charges in the device in the charge-discharge process of the device switch, and prevent the influence of movable ions on the terminal trench region (252).
The stress relief region (254) has a length greater than 5um and comprises at least a first type trench (202) surrounding the gate-source capacitance region (253). The depth of the trench may be shallower than the trench of the termination trench region. In some embodiments, the fill material in the trench may be different from the fill material in the trenches in other regions. For example, the gate electrode (209) material in the first type of trench (202) in the (254) region is metal, while the other trenches are polysilicon. As another example, the gate electrode (209) material in the first type of trench (202) in the (254) region is undoped polysilicon, while the other trenches are doped polysilicon. The aim is to reduce the stress of the grooves in the relief area (254).

And a gate-source capacitor in the vertical direction is formed between the gate polysilicon layer and the shielding gate electrode below the gate polysilicon layer. The structure can avoid the limit of minimum width between metals to save the area of the device, and the grid-source capacitance can be larger because the grid polysilicon can be arranged closer to the shielding grid electrode.

Wherein the most doping concentration is 5e17 cm -3 To 1e16 cm -3 Between them, the maximum concentration is 5e17 cm -3 To 1e18 cm -3 Between them.
A hard mask, which may be a semiconductor oxide or nitride, or a combination of both, may be formed on the upper surface of the epitaxial layer by photolithography prior to trench formation. The hard mask may be removed after the trench etch or may remain partially or completely on the upper surface of the epitaxial layer after the trench etch.
The first type trench (202) and the second type trench (211) may be simultaneously formed by dry etching, and the etching depth is determined by the size of an etching window on the upper surface of the semiconductor during etching.

And secondly, forming a groove insulating layer, namely an isolation layer, in the groove. The trench insulating layer is composed of a first isolation layer (225), a second isolation layer (226), and a third isolation layer (227), as shown in fig. 5B.
The first spacer layer (225) is typically an oxide and may be formed by thermal oxidation or deposition, or a combination of both, with the first type trench dielectric layer typically having a thickness of between 100A and 1000A.

In one embodiment, the filled polysilicon (245) may be low doped polysilicon or undoped polysilicon. The electrostatic protection structure is formed by adjusting the doping concentration in the subsequent process.
Fifth, photoetching is carried out, polysilicon above the first type groove (202) is etched under the protection of the photoresist (246), and a shielding gate electrode (205) in the first type groove is formed. As shown in fig. 9.

The polysilicon is etched back by dry etching to a depth of between 0.3 um and 1um down the top surface of the semiconductor.
In one embodiment, after the formation of the photoresist protection region, or after the formation of the shield gate electrode (205), an additional vertical ion implantation is performed under the photoresist protection to increase the oxidation rate of the polysilicon in the exposed region in a subsequent thermal oxidation process.
In one embodiment, the polysilicon (245) is undoped polysilicon or low doped polysilicon, and after the shielding gate electrode (205) is formed, ion implantation is additionally performed in a vertical direction under the protection of photoresist, so that the doping concentration and the oxidation rate of the polysilicon of the shielding gate electrode (205) are improved, and the realization of oxide layers with different thicknesses in different areas in the subsequent thermal oxidation process is facilitated.
Sixth, a thick oxide layer (249) is formed on the upper surface of the shield gate electrode (205) by thermal oxidation. The upper surface and sides of the polysilicon layer (245) overlying the second type trenches are simultaneously partially oxidized to oxide (248) while forming a thick oxide layer.
