具体实施方式
现将详细地参考本发明的示范性实施例,示范性实施例的实例说明于附图中。只要有可能,相同附图标记在附图和描述中用来表示相同或相似部分。
参考附图,将通过以下实施例来描述本发明。然而,本发明可以以许多不同的形式来体现并且不应被解释为限于本文所阐述的实施例。在附图中,为了清楚和具体的目的,各层和区域的大小和相对大小可能没有按照准确的比例来说明。
图1A至图1I是根据本发明的一实施例的一种碳化硅半导体功率装置的制造方法的步骤的截面图。
参考图1A,使用碳化硅(SiC)衬底100,并且SiC衬底100可以是第一导电类型衬底,并且第一导电类型例如是n型。SiC衬底100包括低压区LV和高压区HV。然后在SiC衬底100的上表面100a上形成第一导电类型第一漂移层102。在第一导电类型第一漂移层102中形成第二导电类型屏蔽区104。在本实施例中,第二导电类型是p型。第二导电类型屏蔽区104至少包括低压区LV中的连续区106和高压区HV中的多个条状区108。在本实施例中,第一导电类型第一漂移层102的掺杂浓度范围例如为1E15/cm3至5E16/cm3,第二导电类型屏蔽区104的掺杂浓度范围例如为1E17/cm3至5E18/cm3。注入于第二导电类型屏蔽区104的掺杂剂例如为选自铝、硼及锡中的至少一种。然而,本发明不限于此。在一个实施例中,第二导电类型屏蔽区104的厚度t1例如为0.1μm至0.4μm。然而,本发明不限于此。
然后,参照图1B,在第一导电类型第一漂移层102上形成第一导电类型第二漂移层110。在一个实施例中,第一导电类型第二漂移层110的掺杂浓度为第一导电类型第一漂移层102的掺杂浓度的1.2至3倍。
接着,参考图1C,在第一导电类型第二漂移层110中同时形成第二导电类型第一阱区W1和第二导电类型第二阱区W2,其中第二导电类型第一阱区W1形成在第一导电类型的MOS区中的低压区LV(例如NMOS区),并且第二导电类型第二阱区W2形成在高压区HV中。在一个实施例中,第二导电类型第一阱区W1和第二导电类型第二阱区W2的掺杂浓度范围为1E17/cm3至6E17/cm3,第二导电类型第一阱区W1和第二导电类型第二阱区W1的厚度t2范围例如为1μm至2μm。然而,本发明不限于此。在一个实施例中,第二导电类型第一阱区W1与连续区106之间的距离例如为0.5μm至4μm。在第一导电类型第二漂移层110中同时形成第二导电类型第一拾取区112a和第二导电类型第二拾取区(如图2所示),第二导电类型第一拾取区112a是连接至连续区106,其中低压区LV中的第一导电类型MOS区(例如NMOS)和第二导电类型MOS区(例如PMOS)被第二导电类型第一拾取区112a包围。第二导电类型第二拾取区形成在高压区HV内并在其他截面处连接到条状区108。在一个实施例中,第二导电类型第一拾取区112a和第二导电类型第二拾取区的掺杂浓度例如为2E17/cm3至5E18/cm3。然而,本发明不限于此。
接着,参考图1D,如有必要,在形成第二导电类型第一拾取区112a和第二导电类型第二拾取区的步骤之后,可以在高压区HV内的第二导电类型第二阱区W2中形成第一导电类型第一轻掺杂漏极(LDD)区114。在一个实施例中,第一导电类型第一LDD区114的掺杂浓度例如为5E17/cm3至5E18/cm3。第一导电类型第一LDD区114的深度例如为0.1μm至0.4μm。然而,本发明不限于此。
接着,参照图1E,在高压区HV的第一导电类型第二漂移层110中形成多个沟槽116,然后在每个沟槽116的表面上形成第二栅极介质层118。每个沟槽116在垂直方向形成在每个条状区108上。在一个实施例中,第二栅极介电层118的厚度t3例如为至/>然而,本发明不限于此。
接着,参照图1F,在低压区LV内的第一导电类型第二漂移层110上形成第一栅极介电层120。在一个实施例中,第一栅极介电层120的厚度t4例如为至/>然而,本发明不限于此。第二栅极介电层118是在形成第一栅极介电层120之前形成。然而,本发明不限于此。在另一实施例中,第一栅极介电层120可在形成第二栅极介电层118之前形成。对于低压区LV中的栅极和高压区HV中的沟槽栅极的形成,多晶硅层PL沉积在第一栅极介质层120上并填充沟槽116。
接着,参照图1G,可以形成图案化掩膜(未示出)以覆盖低压区LV内的部分多晶硅层PL,然后使用图案化掩膜作为刻蚀掩膜去除暴露的多晶硅层PL,同时回刻蚀高压区HV内的多晶硅层PL。因此,栅极G1和G2分别形成在第一导电类型MOS区域(例如NMOS)和第二导电类型MOS区域(例如PMOS)内的第一栅极介质层120上,并且多个沟槽栅极TG分别形成在条状区108上方的沟槽116。由于第二导电类型屏蔽区104的每个条状区108设置在形成沟槽栅极TG的每个沟槽116的底部下方,所以沟槽116底部的第二栅极介质层118高电场的问题可以解决,有效Cgd值也可以显着降低。因此,在高压区HV的功率垂直MOSFET的工作中,可以实现更好的电特性,同时也提高了沟槽116底部的氧化物可靠性。接着,可以去除图案化掩膜。
接着,参照图1H,同时形成多个HV源极区HS和多个第一源/漏极区S/D1,其中HV源极区HS形成在沟槽栅极TG之间的第二导电类型第二阱区W2中,第一源/漏极区S/D1形成在第二导电类型第一阱区W1中。在一个实施例中,形成多个HV源极区HS的步骤包括在第二导电类型MOS区(例如PMOS)内的第一导电类型第二漂移层110中形成第二体区122。同时形成第二导电类型第一重掺杂区(如图2所示)、多个第二导电类型第二重掺杂区124a和多个第二源/漏极区S/D2,其中第二导电类型第二重掺杂区124a形成在沟槽栅极TG之间并连接到第二导电类型第二阱区W2,并且第二源/漏极区S/D2形成在第二导电类型的MOS区中的第一导电类型第二漂移层110。在一个实施例中,形成第二导电类型第二重掺杂区124a的步骤包括在第二导电类型第一阱区W1中形成第一体区126。
接着,参照图1I,在第一导电类型第二漂移层110上选择性地形成绝缘层128,然后在绝缘层128中形成开口O1和O2,然后在开口O1和O2中沉积导电材料(例如金属或合金)130。HV漏电极D形成在SiC衬底100的底表面100b上。
根据本实施例的碳化硅半导体功率装置,由于第一导电类型第一漂移层102和第一导电类型第二漂移层110是由低压区LV中的第二导电类型屏蔽区104的连续区106隔离,第一导电类型第一漂移层102中的电位与第一导电类型第二漂移层110中的电位不同。第一导电类型第二漂移层110是对PMOS源极的体偏压。第二导电类型第一阱区W1被第一导电类型第二漂移层110和第二导电类型屏蔽区104的连续区106隔离,可以有效地过滤高压区HV中的功率垂直MOSFET产生的杂讯。
图2是根据所述实施例中的一例的碳化硅半导体功率装置的高压区(HV)的俯视图。图3是沿图2的线III-III'的截面图。在图2和图3中,与图1I相同或相似的标号用于表示相同或相似的部件,相同或相似部件的内容也与图1中的内容相同,故在此不再赘述。然而,这些部件的相对位置可以被调整并且与图1I中所示的不同。
参考图2和图3,存在三个沟槽栅极TG,并且形成连接部分200以连接沟槽栅极TG。连接部分200可以通过使用在关于图1G的步骤中所述的图案化掩膜来形成。如图1G所示,覆盖沟槽116外的多晶硅层。然而,本发明不限于此。可以根据需要改变沟槽栅极TG的数量和形成连接部分200的方法。第二导电类型第一重掺杂区124b形成在第一导电类型第二漂移层110中并且连接到第二导电类型第二拾取区112b。每一条状区108的一端108a延伸至第二导电类型第二阱区W2的区域外。在一个实施例中,每个条状区108的一端108a通过第二导电类型第二拾取区112b连接到第二导电类型第一重掺杂区124b。
图4是根据所述实施例中的一例的碳化硅半导体功率装置的低电区(LV)的俯视图,其中与图1I中相同或相似的标号用于表示相同或相似的部件,相同或相似部件的内容也与图1I中的内容相同,在此不再赘述。然而,这些部件的相对位置可以被调整并且与图1I中所示的不同。
如图4所示,PMOS区和NMOS区构成CMOS。在PMOS区域中,第二源/漏极区S/D2形成在每个栅极G2的两侧,并且在一个实施例中,在形成栅极G2的步骤之后(图1G的步骤之后),可以在栅极G2与第二源/漏极区S/D2之间的第一导电类型第二漂移层中形成第二导电类型的LDD区(未示出)。在NMOS区域中,第一源/漏极区S/D1形成在每个栅极G1的两侧,并且在一个实施例中,在形成栅极G1的步骤之后(图1G的步骤之后),第一导电类型第二LDD区(未示出)可以形成在第二导电类型第一阱区W1中的栅极G1和第一源/漏极区S/D1之间。即使栅极G1和G2的排列方向与图1中栅极G1和G2的排列方向不同,如图1G的碳化硅半导体功率装置结构中的CMOS工艺流程仍然可以通过调整光掩膜图案制造。此外,第二体区122设置在PMOS区的一侧,栅极G1和第一源/漏极区S/D1被第一体区126包围。
最后应说明的是:以上各实施例仅用以说明本发明的技术方案,而非对其限制;尽管参照前述各实施例对本发明进行了详细的说明,本领域的普通技术人员应当理解:其依然可以对前述各实施例所记载的技术方案进行修改,或者对其中部分或者全部技术特征进行等同替换;而这些修改或者替换,并不使相应技术方案的本质脱离本发明各实施例技术方案的范围。
