Background technology
Power semiconductor is the inherent actuating force of the power-electronic system of development, especially at aspects such as energy savings, dynamically control, noise minimizings.Power semiconductor is mainly used in to be controlled the energy between the energy and the load, and should have precision height, speed characteristics fast and low in energy consumption.In power circuit, power semiconductor (particularly MOSFET, referred to as MOS) is mainly as switching device, because it is how sub-device, so its switch power consumption less.Its on-state power consumption is then higher, reduce on-state power consumption, just must reduce conducting resistance R
DsonTherefore, power semiconductor will further develop, and just must reduce conducting resistance R
DsonStudies show that, (be R for desirable N ditch MOS components and parts
DsonOnly consider the drift layer resistance R
D), conducting resistance R
DsonWith puncture voltage V
BBetween the pass be:
Conducting resistance is subjected to breakdown voltage limit and has a limit---and be referred to as " the silicon limit " (Silicon Limit), and can't reduce again.At beginning of the nineties late 1980s, " the silicon limit " broken in a kind of proposition of new ideas, and it can obtain low on-state power consumption and high switching speed simultaneously.This concept has obtained " super junction is theoretical " (Super Junction Theory) through after evolution and improving.
2000 and calendar year 2001, Chen Xing assist in education is awarded and is successively published thesis, and has further analyzed conducting resistance R
DsonWith puncture voltage V
BRelation, draw:
This result and experimental data are very approaching, can be used for the three dimensional analysis of super-junction structures is calculated.And proved that in theory quantitatively under same breakdown voltage, super junction MOSFET significantly reduces than the conducting resistance of conventional MOS FET, can break through the silicon limit.
Only have majority carrier in the super-junction structures turn on process---electronics, and do not have the participation of minority carrier, therefore, its switching loss is identical with traditional power MOSFET, and the impurity doping content of its voltage support layer can improve order of magnitude nearly; In addition, owing to insert p type island region on the vertical direction, can compensate excessive current lead-through electric charge.Add reverse bias voltage at drift layer, will produce a transverse electric field, the pn knot is exhausted.When voltage reached certain value, drift layer exhausted fully, will play the effect of voltage support layer.Since the significantly raising of doping content, under identical puncture voltage, conducting resistance R
DsonCan greatly reduce, descend 5 times than traditional power device.Equally, we can be at identical puncture voltage V
B, identical conducting resistance R
DsonThe less die area of lower use, thus the grid electric charge reduced, improve switching frequency.Because super-junction device is how sub-device, therefore, this device does not have the current tail phenomenon of igbt transistor, so super-junction device can obtain low on-state power consumption and high switching speed simultaneously.
Yet high voltage power device usually can be subject to tying the impact of curvature effect and cause electric field to be assembled near knot, usually utilizes pressure ring to reduce the curvature effect of pn knot.And the terminal pressure ring generally can adopt the quadrant arc to replace the right angle at four angles, this is because there is higher puncture voltage cylindrical diffusion region than rectangle, triangle and rhombus diffusion region, traditional super junction terminal pressure ring is adding in the situation of reverse biased, the depletion region of active area and potential dividing ring all can extend, when voltage is added to certain numerical value, pn knot in the active area can exhaust fully, plays the effect of a voltage support.Yet, because the list structure that super junction active area P type Si and N-type Si are special, when active area pn knot exhausted, the junction of active area and terminal potential dividing ring can't exhaust simultaneously, this can cause super junction to puncture in the junction in advance, greatly reduces the puncture voltage of device.
