Description

Semiconductor power device with gate trench
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of semiconductor power devices, and more particularly to a semiconductor power device with gate trenches, and the specification describes a novel layout for a high power density or improved process.
Background
The present invention relates to a semiconductor power device with a gate trench, comprising a trench MOSFET (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor) and a trench IGBT (insulated gate bipolar transistor), these devices having a gate contact, which is electrically isolated from the rest of the transistor structure by a suitable insulating material, such as silicon dioxide, for controlling and switching the device from a blocking state to a conducting state or vice versa. The gate may be a trench that forms a body of semiconductor material by etching or the like. The design as in US patent 8633510 includes an additional trench, i.e. a dummy trench, that is not connected to the gate potential in order to provide shielding for the gate bias trench, i.e. the source trench. The active trenches and dummy trenches may be alternately laid out (e.g., U.S. patent No. 8633510) or separated into different regions on the device (e.g., U.S. patent No. 20100276728), and the trenches may be arranged in a linear stripe pattern or a closed rectangular layout (e.g., U.S. patent No. 20100276728) to form a regular grid layout in the conductive regions of the semiconductor device.
As for the contact between the top metal material and the semiconductor material, the contact region can also be made by etching to the surface of the material, which must be electrically isolated from the gate to ensure the function of the device, but there is still a need to minimize the distance between the active trenches, commonly referred to as the mesa size, which is often considered a key indicator of device performance and process maturity; in many designs, however, the formation of contact regions limits the size of the mesa, as in U.S. patent No. 7846799 and U.S. patent No. 20190305083 attempt to overcome this limitation by forming x-directional trenches.
Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and it is highly desirable to provide a semiconductor power device having a gate trench.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the embodiments of the present invention, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
As shown in fig. 1a, 1b and 1c, the present invention provides a semiconductor power device with a gate trench, comprising: a drift region of the first conductivity type; a body region 1 of a second conductivity type is arranged in the drift region; a source region 2 of the first conductivity type embedded in the body region 1; a first conductivity type reinforcing region 4 located directly below the body region; a gate trench 6 comprising a wide mesa and a narrow mesa connected end to end and of uniform length surrounding the body region 1, the source region 2 and the enhancement region 4, the gate trench 6 being provided with a dielectric layer therein, being electrically isolated from the semiconductor by the dielectric layer and being in contact with the gate of the device; a contact region 3 formed only within the wide mesa of the gate trench 6, forming an electrical contact to the semiconductor material and to the emitter or source of the semiconductor device; a plurality of the structures described above are laid out with the narrow mesas and the wide mesas alternating in adjacent cells.
An object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor power device, such as a MOSFET, an IGBT or the like having a source region of a plurality of trench structures, comprising a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type, including a region of a second conductivity type, i.e. a body region 1, in which a highly doped region of the first conductivity type, i.e. a source region 2, is formed; in some embodiments, another layer of the first conductivity type may be included under the body region, i.e., enhancement region 4; gate trenches 6 are formed on either side of the body region 1 and are electrically isolated from the remainder of the semiconductor material by an insulating material, such as silicon dioxide, and then the gate trenches 6 are filled with a conductive material and connected to the gate. Within the body region 1, a contact region 3 may also be formed which is connected to the emitter or source of the device, the device being switched from a conducting state to a blocking state and vice versa by adjusting the voltage on the gate, the gate trenches 6 in the prior art forming a stripe or a net-like layout, one stripe or rectangle may be referred to as a cell.
In some cells, the source region 2 may be omitted, in which case the cell is in an inactive state, i.e. a dummy cell with a dummy trench 8, which technique is used to adjust the overall conductivity of the semiconductor device and to add additional protection to the active trench affected by the elevated electric field, the dummy cell may or may not contain an emitter contact, which affects the switching of the device. The dummy trench 8 may be in contact with the gate or emitter electrode, or left floating.
In some embodiments, the dummy cells without contact regions 3 may also include highly doped regions of the second conductivity type, which are not strongly connected to any potential in the device, referred to in some embodiments as floating p-wells 5, the floating p-wells 5 may serve as protection for high voltage electric fields in the device.
The invention is shown schematically, not to scale, in fig. 2a and 2b, the gate trenches 6 are not formed in a stripe or net pattern, but rather are shaped such that within a single cell there is a wider area for accommodating the contact regions 3 and a narrower area for shrinking the mesa between the active trenches. The high conductivity source region 2 is used to conduct current from the contact region 3 to the active mesa region where the current flows in the vertical region of the device. In this embodiment the area between the active cells is filled with a floating p-well 5.
In another embodiment as shown in fig. 3a and 3b, the floating p-wells 5 are arranged in stripes, which may be needed if the distance between the gate trenches 6, i.e. the non-active mesa, becomes small so that patterning becomes difficult.
As shown in fig. 4a and 4b, the present invention also provides an embodiment in which the floating p-well 5 may be omitted, wherein the active and passive mesas are minimized to provide shielding for the gate trench 6 everywhere in the device.
As shown in fig. 5a and 5b, the present invention provides a further variation of this embodiment, in which the source region 2 no longer fills the entire wide mesa with the contact region 3, but only forms stripes of approximately the same width as the active mesa, since the channel region is formed only at the location of the active mesa, the switching uniformity of the device is ensured. The gate trenches 6 in the wide mesas act as dummy trenches 8 in this embodiment and provide shielding for adjacent active trenches. Since the length of the widened and narrowed regions is equal in the present embodiment, the active region and the dummy region alternately provide dummy protection for each source region 2 on both sides.
As shown in fig. 6a and 6b, the present invention provides the same embodiment of the semiconductor device as in fig. 5a and 5b, but after the formation of the gate trench 6, a dopant of the second conductivity type is introduced into the region directly under the gate trench 6, sometimes referred to as the p-ring 7, which acts like a floating p-well 5, however, the p-ring 7 does not require an additional masking step, as the dopant can be introduced directly through the opening of the gate trench 6; furthermore, a p-ring 7 is located directly under the gate trench 6 to provide optimal protection.
As shown in fig. 7a and 7b, the present invention provides a similar embodiment in which part of the gate trench 6 is masked and no dopant is introduced to the region under this part of the gate trench 6, but only the p-ring 7 is included in the wide mesa, which protects the more fragile part of the cell, but does not introduce the p-ring 7 under part of the gate trench 6 to avoid causing bipolar effects.
As shown in fig. 8a and 8b, the present invention provides another embodiment in which the cells alternate between active cells and dummy cells, which enables the highest level of protection of the gate trench 6 with less conductivity. The dummy cells may be implemented with or without floating p-wells 5; the dummy cell may include contact region 3 when floating p-well 5 is not provided. The dummy trenches 8 may be gate or emitter biased or electrically floating, and any of the above types of active cells and dummy cells may be mixed in any order and combination.
As shown in fig. 9a and 9b, all of the above embodiments can also be implemented with a circle or a general polygon by widening and then narrowing back to the original size.
As shown in fig. 10a, the listed embodiments may also have interrupted source regions 2, so that the conductivity of the device is adjusted, and the connection regions and the interruption regions may be alternately present in any proportion.
As shown in fig. 10b or 10c, the wide mesa and the narrow mesa may also be of unequal length in any of the embodiments listed.
As shown in fig. 11, the thickness of the gate trench 6 is changed in the longitudinal direction so as to form the contact region 3.
As shown in fig. 12, the floating p-well 5 is formed only where two of the narrow mesas are adjacent to each other.
It is apparent that the above examples are given by way of illustration only and are not limiting of the embodiments. Other variations or modifications of the above teachings will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art. It is not necessary here nor is it exhaustive of all embodiments. While still being apparent from variations or modifications that may be made by those skilled in the art are within the scope of the invention.
