The present invention relates to an oxide crystal useful for a semiconductor device, a crystalline oxide film, a crystalline layered structure, and a semiconductor device using the oxide crystal.
Background
Germanium oxide is attracting attention as a wide band gap semiconductor useful for power devices and the like. The band gap of germanium oxide is said to be 4.44eV to 4.68eV (non-patent document 1), and the hole mobility is estimated to be 27cm as calculated according to the first principle 2 Vs (direction perpendicular to the c-axis) or 29cm 2 Vs (non-patent document 2), it is also expected to realize a pn homojunction.
It has also been studied to actually produce germanium oxide instead of the calculation estimation described above, and non-patent document 3 discloses that the MBE method is used to pass through (Sn, ge) O on an R-plane sapphire substrate 2 The buffer layer forms germanium oxide film. In addition, non-patent document 4 discloses that (001) TiO is prepared by using a mixed MBE method 2 (Sn, ge) O of rutile structure formed on substrate 2 And (3) a film. Thus, the rutile-type germanium oxide may be combined with Sn, si, or the like to form a mixed crystal, or may be captured as a single material system. However, in the method described in non-patent document 4, if the atomic ratio of germanium in the metal in the film exceeds 0.5, there is a problem that amorphization is caused by loss of crystallinity. Because ofIn this case, an oxide crystal (crystalline oxide film) containing germanium oxide having crystal quality is desired to be applicable to a semiconductor device.

Further, the output of the battery 501 is provided with an inductor (such as a coil) to stabilize the current, and a capacitor (such as an electrolytic capacitor) is interposed between the battery 501, the boost converter 502, and the inverter 504 to stabilize the voltage.
As shown by a broken line in fig. 13, the drive control unit 506 is provided with an arithmetic unit 507 constituted by CPU (Central Processing Unit) and a storage unit 508 constituted by a nonvolatile memory. The signal input to the drive control unit 506 is applied to the operation unit 507 to perform necessary operations, thereby generating feedback signals for the respective semiconductor elements. The storage unit 508 temporarily holds the calculation result of the calculation unit 507, or stores physical constants, functions, and the like necessary for drive control in the form of a table, and outputs the result to the calculation unit 507 as appropriate. The arithmetic unit 507 and the storage unit 508 may have a known configuration, and their processing capacities and the like may be arbitrarily selected.
As shown in fig. 12 and 13, in the control system 500, switching operations of the boost converter 502, the buck converter 503, and the inverter 504 use diodes or thyristors, power transistors, IGBTs, MOSFETs, and the like as switching elements. Further, by applying the semiconductor device or the like according to the present invention, very good switching characteristics can be expected, and further miniaturization and cost reduction of the control system 500 can be achieved. That is, the boost converter 502, the buck converter 503, and the inverter 504 can each expect the effects of the present invention, and any one or a combination of two or more of them or any one of the modes further including the drive control unit 506 can expect the effects of the present invention.
The control system 500 can be applied not only to a control system of an electric vehicle but also to a control system for all applications such as boosting and reducing power from a dc power supply or converting power from dc to ac. In addition, a power source such as a solar cell may be used as the battery.
Fig. 14 is a block configuration diagram showing another example of a control system using a semiconductor device according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 15 is a circuit diagram of the control system, which is suitable for mounting in an infrastructure device, a home appliance, or the like that operates using electric power from an ac power source.
As shown in fig. 14, the control system 600 receives electric power supplied from an external three-phase alternating current power supply (power supply) 601, for example, and includes an AC/DC converter 602, an inverter 604, a motor (driving target) 605, and a drive control unit 606, which can be mounted on various devices (described later). The three-phase ac power supply 601 is, for example, a power generation facility (thermal power plant, hydroelectric power plant, geothermal power plant, nuclear power plant, or the like) of an electric power company, and its output is reduced in voltage via a substation and supplied as an ac voltage. In addition, the electric power is supplied through a power cable, for example, by being installed in a building or in a nearby facility as a home electric generator or the like. The AC/DC converter 602 is a voltage conversion device that converts an AC voltage into a DC voltage, and converts an AC voltage of 100V or 200V supplied from the three-phase AC power supply 601 into a predetermined DC voltage. Specifically, the voltage is converted into a desired dc voltage which is generally used, such as 3.3V, 5V, or 12V, by voltage conversion. In the case where the driving object is a motor, the voltage is converted to 12V. In this case, the AC/DC converter may be configured to have a single-phase input, and the same system configuration may be employed.
The inverter 604 converts the direct-current voltage supplied from the AC/DC converter 602 into a three-phase alternating-current voltage by a switching operation and outputs the three-phase alternating-current voltage to the motor 605. The motor 604 is a three-phase ac motor for driving wheels in the case of an electric car, a three-phase ac motor for driving a pump or various power sources in the case of a factory, and a three-phase ac motor for driving a compressor or the like in the case of a home electric appliance, and is rotationally driven by a three-phase ac voltage output from the inverter 604 to transmit a rotational driving force to a driving object not shown.
In addition, for example, in a household appliance, there are many driving objects (for example, personal computers, LED lighting devices, video devices, audio devices, and the like) that can directly supply the DC voltage output from the AC/DC converter 302, and in this case, the control system 600 does not need the inverter 604, and the DC voltage is supplied from the AC/DC converter 602 to the driving objects as shown in fig. 14. In this case, for example, a dc voltage of 3.3V is supplied to a personal computer or the like, and a dc voltage of 5V is supplied to an LED lighting device or the like.
On the other hand, actual measurement values such as the rotational speed and torque of the driving object, and the temperature and flow rate of the surrounding environment of the driving object are measured using various sensors not shown, and these measurement signals are input to the driving control unit 606. The output voltage value of the inverter 604 is also input to the drive control unit 606. Based on these measurement signals, the drive control unit 606 gives a feedback signal to the inverter 604, and controls the switching operation of the switching element. Thus, the ac voltage applied to the motor 605 by the inverter 604 is instantaneously corrected, and the operation control of the driving target can be accurately performed, thereby realizing the stable operation of the driving target. In addition, as described above, when the driving target can be driven by the direct-current voltage, feedback control may be performed on the AC/DC converter 602 instead of feedback to the inverter.
Fig. 15 shows the circuit configuration of fig. 14. As shown in the figure, the semiconductor device of the present invention is employed as a schottky barrier diode in an AC/DC converter 602 and an inverter 604, for example, and is provided for switching control. The AC/DC converter 602 performs DC conversion by converting and rectifying a negative voltage portion of an input voltage into a positive voltage using a circuit configuration in which a schottky barrier diode is bridged, for example. In addition, the inverter 604 is incorporated into a switching circuit of an IGBT to perform switching control. Further, stabilization of current is achieved by interposing an inductor (coil or the like) between the three-phase alternating-current power supply 601 and the AC/DC converter 602, and stabilization of voltage is achieved by interposing a capacitor (electrolytic capacitor or the like) between the AC/DC converter 602 and the inverter 604.
As shown by a broken line in fig. 15, the drive control unit 606 includes an arithmetic unit 607 configured by a CPU and a storage unit 608 configured by a nonvolatile memory. The signal input to the drive control unit 606 is applied to the operation unit 607 to perform necessary operations, thereby generating feedback signals for the respective semiconductor elements. The storage unit 608 temporarily holds the calculation result of the calculation unit 607, or stores physical constants, functions, and the like necessary for drive control in the form of a table and outputs the result to the calculation unit 607 as appropriate. The arithmetic unit 607 and the storage unit 608 may have a known configuration, and their processing capacities and the like may be arbitrarily selected.
In such a control system 600, as in the control system 500 shown in fig. 14 and 15, diodes, thyristors as switching elements, power transistors, IGBTs, MOSFETs, and the like are used for rectifying operations and switching operations of the AC/DC converter 602 and the inverter 604. Further, by applying the semiconductor film or the semiconductor device according to the present invention, very good switching characteristics can be expected, and further miniaturization and cost reduction of the control system 600 can be achieved. That is, the AC/DC converter 602 and the inverter 604 can each expect the effects of the present invention, and any one or a combination of them or any one of the modes further including the drive control unit 606 can expect the effects of the present invention.
In fig. 14 and 15, the motor 605 is illustrated as a driving object, but the driving object is not necessarily limited to an object to be mechanically operated, and a plurality of devices requiring an ac voltage may be used as the driving object. The control system 600 can be applied to drive a driven object by inputting electric power from an ac power source, and the control system 600 can be mounted for drive control of devices such as infrastructure devices (e.g., electric devices of buildings, factories, etc., communication devices, traffic control devices, water supply/drainage processing devices, system devices, power saving devices, electric cars, etc.) or home appliances (e.g., refrigerators, washing machines, personal computers, LED lighting devices, video devices, audio devices, etc.).
