Description

High density trench device structure
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a power semiconductor field especially relates to high density slot device structure.
Background
The trench power mosfet (trench mos) has a low switching loss and a high switching speed due to its high integration level, low on-resistance, low gate-drain charge density, and large current capacity, and is widely used in low-voltage power fields, such as power management, battery protection, and power devices.
An important index for measuring the power MOSFET is a characteristic on-resistance Rsp, namely the on-resistance of a chip in unit area; the device on-resistance is generally composed of a substrate resistance, an epitaxial layer resistance, a channel resistance, a source-drain contact resistance, and the like, and the channel resistance of the low-voltage MOSFET accounts for about 1/3 in terms of the device resistance. At present, an important measure for reducing the on-resistance of a power device is to increase the cell density, that is, the higher the cell density and the higher the channel density, the higher the channel resistance is, the higher the cell density is, the higher the channel resistance is, the proportion is reduced. The current trench MOSFET has been sub-micron sized on cell size, the 0.9um cell size high density trench MOSFET has matured, and the cell density has reached 120M cell/cm for the 0.9um sub-micron cell size2(ii) a However, as the cell size is reduced to submicron, for example, the cell size is further reduced to deep submicron by a large gradient, the limitation of the photolithography and etching processes and the limitation of the original lateral (X-axis) dimension of the source N +/P + doping of the device face, which hinders the further ultra-high integration development of the trench MOSFET cell density.
As shown in fig. 2, a method for manufacturing a trench MOSFET structure by a conventional process generally includes forming an epitaxial layer 12 on a silicon-based substrate 11, and performing photolithography and etching on the epitaxial layer 12 to form a trench 13; growing a gate oxide layer 14 and depositing and reversely etching a polysilicon electrode 15 in the trench 13, so that an upper interface of the polysilicon is basically flush with the surface of the silicon; self-aligned implantation and annealing of the p-type base region 16 are carried out on the upper part of the polysilicon electrode 15; implanting and annealing an N + source region 18 in a preset region on the upper part of the p-type base region 16, and depositing and growing an isolation medium 17 on the upper part of the N + source region 18; photoetching and etching the source contact hole c, keeping the etching depth in silicon to be 0.3-0.4 um to penetrate through the N + source region 18, and performing injection and annealing of a P + impurity region 19 at the bottom of the source contact hole c in a self-alignment manner; and performing tungsten plug deposition of a source contact hole c, deposition of a source metal aluminum copper alloy layer 10(ALCU), passivation, thinning of the back of the wafer and metallization.
In the trench MOSFET structure manufactured by the process, the N + source region 18, the source contact hole c and the P + impurity region 19 are all on the same cross section, the etching of the contact hole needs to leave a transverse space for N +, the alignment requirement of the contact hole and the trench is very strict, and the performance of the device can be reduced due to slight deviation of the size on the dimension of a submicron unit cell; this structure is therefore greatly limited as the cell size progresses below 0.9 um.

In the embodiment, the isolation layer 27 is sunk in the trench 23 in the high-density trench device structure, and the whole trench device structure is used as the source electrode layer 20, so that the source contact hole is sputtered in a self-alignment manner without etching, and the problems of hole photoetching alignment and the like are avoided; the layout mode that the first conduction type source regions 28 and the second conduction type source regions 29 are arranged at intervals along the Y-axis direction breaks through the limitation that the first conduction type source regions 28 and the second conduction type source regions 29 are distributed in the transverse direction to reduce the sizes of the cell regions, so that the sizes of the MOSFET cells are increased from 0.9um to 0.5um, and the cell density is increased from 120M/cm2Lifting to 400M/cm2The improvement of the on-resistance due to the increase of the area of the source contact hole is increased by 3.3 times, and the characteristic on-resistance of the device can be correspondingly increased by more than 20%, so that the static power consumption of the power device is reduced by more than 20%.
As an example, if the first conductive type is N-type, the second conductive type is P-type; if the first conductive type is a P type, the second conductive type is an N type.
As an example, the epitaxial layer 22 has a thickness of 1um to 5 um. In practical applications, the thickness of the epitaxial layer 22 can be set according to the device withstand voltage requirement.
