バイポーラ型のPiNダイオードでは、上記MOSFETあるいはショットキー障壁ダイオードの製造で見られるのと同様、コンタクト抵抗の低減は可能となるものの、オン電圧の上昇をもたらすという新たな課題を引き起こしてしまう。
図1は、本発明の第1の実施形態に係わる炭化珪素半導体装置の例として縦型DIMOSFETの概略断面構造図を示す。
4H−炭化珪素の(0001)面n+型基板10の主表面上には基板10よりも低い窒素濃度のn−型エピタキシャル層11が形成されている。エピタキシャル層11の表面側には、所定間隔で複数のp−ウエル領域12が形成されている。各ウエル領域12内には、n+型ソース領域13が窒素イオン注入によって形成されており、これらの各ソース領域13内にはコンタクト用のp+ソース領域14がアルミニウムイオン注入により形成されている。
n+型炭化珪素基板10上に、n−型不純物を添加したエピタキシャル層11を形成する。このエピタキシャル層11は、例えば化学気相成長法を用いて所定の耐圧設計に基くキャリア濃度を実現できる添加不純物濃度となるように添加ガスの流量を調整し、また膜厚も当該設計に基く厚みになるようにエピタキシャル成長させて形成する。第1の実施形態では3.3kVの耐圧を持つMOSFETを製造するためにキャリア濃度3.9×1015cm−3、膜厚を26μmとなるように成長条件を調整した後に行った。次にエピタキシャル層11の表面にウエル形成用のマスク(図示せず)を設け、アルミニウム等のp−型不純物イオンを注入し、複数のp−型ウエル領域12を形成した。当該ウエル12の形成後、マスク(図示せず)を除去した。引き続いてソース領域形成用マスク(図示せず)を設け、窒素等のn+型不純物イオンを注入し、n+型ソース領域を13を形成した。次にコンタクト領域形成用のマスクを設けアルミニウム等のp+型不純物イオンを注入してコンタクト用のp+型ソース領域14を形成した。
次にショットキー障壁ダイオード装置を製造する場合の実施例につき図2を参照しながら説明する。
4H−炭化珪素の(0001)面n+型基板20の主表面上には基板20よりも低い窒素濃度のn−型エピタキシャル層21が形成されている。エピタキシャル層21の表面側には、接合終端構造としてのp−形領域22と接合障壁制御用のp−領域23が形成されている。このp−領域22、23はアルミニウムイオン注入により形成されている。
n+型炭化珪素基板20上に、n−型不純物を添加したエピタキシャル層21を形成する。このエピタキシャル層21は、例えば化学気相成長法を用いて所定の耐圧設計に基くキャリア濃度を実現できる添加不純物濃度となるように添加ガスの流量を調整し、また膜厚も当該設計に基く厚みになるようにエピタキシャル成長させて形成する。第2の実施形態では3.3kVの耐圧を持つ接合障壁制御ショットキーダイオードを製造するためにキャリア濃度3.9×1015cm−3、膜厚を26μmとなるように成長条件を調整した後に行った。次にエピタキシャル層21の表面に接合終端構造形成用のマスク(図示せず)を設け、アルミニウム等のp−型不純物イオンを注入し、p−型領域22、23を形成した。当該領域22、23の形成後、マスク(図示せず)を除去した。
次にPiNダイオードを製造する場合の実施例につき図3を参照しながら説明する。
図3は、本発明の第3の実施形態に係わる炭化珪素半導体装置の例としてPiNダイオードの概略断面構造図を示す。
n+型炭化珪素基板30上に、n−型不純物を添加したエピタキシャル層31、p−型不純物を添加したエピタキシャル層32、p+型不純物を添加したエピタキシャル層33を形成する。このエピタキシャル層31、32、33は、例えば化学気相成長法を用いて所定の耐圧設計に基くキャリア濃度を実現できる添加不純物濃度となるように添加ガスの流量を調整し、また膜厚も当該設計に基く厚みになるようにエピタキシャル成長させて形成する。本実施例3では3.3kVの耐圧を持つPiNダイオードを製造するためにn型キャリア濃度3.9×1015cm−3、膜厚を26μmとなるように成長条件を調整した後にn−型エピタキシャル層31の成長を行い、p型キャリア濃度8×1017cm−3、膜厚を1.5μmのp−型エピタキシャル層32の成長を行い、更にp型キャリア濃度1×1019cm−3、膜厚を0.5μmのp+型エピタキシャル層33の成長を行った。次にエピタキシャル層33の表面に3μm程度の酸化膜をCVDにより形成した後、メサ加工用のマスク(図示せず)を設けてドライエッチングによりメサ型にエッチングを行い、予め求めておいたエッチング速度を元にしてn−型エピタキシャル層31までエッチングが到達したところからさらにエッチング継続してからメサ加工を終えた。次に接合終端部34を形成するためにアルミニウム等のp−型不純物イオンを注入し、p−型領域34を形成した。当該領域34の形成後、マスク(図示せず)を除去した。
