圖1A至圖1G為依據本發明實施例所繪示的溝槽式電晶體的製造流程剖面示意圖。在本實施例中,溝槽式電晶體為遮蔽閘極溝槽式金屬氧化物半導體場效電晶體,其具有設置於溝槽中的閘極以及遮蔽電極(亦可稱為源電極),以下將對此作詳細說明。此外,在本實施例中,第一導電型為P型與N型中的一者,而第二導電型則為P型與N型中的另一者。1A to 1G are cross-sectional schematic diagrams illustrating a manufacturing process of a trench transistor according to an embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the trench transistor is a shielded gate trench metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor, which has a gate disposed in the trench and a shielding electrode (also referred to as a source electrode). The following This will be explained in detail. In addition, in this embodiment, the first conductivity type is one of the P-type and the N-type, and the second conductivity type is the other of the P-type and the N-type.

首先,參照圖1A,提供基底100。在本實施例中,基底100包括基層100a以及形成於基層100a上的磊晶層100b。基層100a例如是具有第一導電型重摻雜的矽基層。磊晶層100b例如是具有第一導電型輕摻雜的磊晶層。磊晶層100b的形成方法例如是進行選擇性磊晶生長(selective epitaxy growth,SEG)製程。接著,於磊晶層100b中形成溝槽102。在本實施例中,溝槽102的深度小於磊晶層100b的厚度,亦即溝槽102的底部位於磊晶層100b中,使得溝槽102並未暴露出基層100a。此外,在本實施例中,溝槽102具有實質上垂直的側壁。First, referring to FIG. 1A, a substrate 100 is provided. In this embodiment, the substrate 100 includes a base layer 100a and an epitaxial layer 100b formed on the base layer 100a. The base layer 100a is, for example, a heavily doped silicon base layer with the first conductivity type. The epitaxial layer 100b is, for example, a lightly doped epitaxial layer of the first conductivity type. The method for forming the epitaxial layer 100b is, for example, a selective epitaxy growth (SEG) process. Next, trenches 102 are formed in the epitaxial layer 100b. In this embodiment, the depth of the trench 102 is smaller than the thickness of the epitaxial layer 100b, that is, the bottom of the trench 102 is located in the epitaxial layer 100b, so that the trench 102 does not expose the base layer 100a. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the trenches 102 have substantially vertical sidewalls.

接著,參照圖1B,於溝槽102的側壁與底面上形成第一絕緣層104。在本實施例中,第一絕緣層104為氧化矽層。第一絕緣層104的形成方法例如是進行熱氧化製程,以於基底100上共形地形成絕緣材料層。在本實施例中,第一絕緣層104具有實質上均勻的厚度,亦即第一絕緣層104的位於溝槽102的底面上的部分的厚度實質上等於第一絕緣層104的位於溝槽102的側壁上的部分的厚度。然後,於溝槽102中的第一絕緣層104上形成第一導電層106。在本實施例中,第一導電層106為多晶矽層。第一導電層106的形成方法例如是進行化學氣相沉積(chemical vapor deposition,CVD)製程,以將導電材料層填入溝槽102中。由於溝槽102通常具有較高的深寬比,因此在將導電材料層填入溝槽102中之後,所形成的第一導電層106中難以避免地會形成有孔洞或孔隙106a。一般來說,孔洞或孔隙106a大多會形成在第一導電層106的上部中。在圖1B中,為使附圖清楚以及便於說明,僅繪示一個孔洞或孔隙106a,但本發明不限於此。Next, referring to FIG. 1B , a first insulating layer 104 is formed on the sidewall and bottom surface of the trench 102 . In this embodiment, the first insulating layer 104 is a silicon oxide layer. A method for forming the first insulating layer 104 is, for example, a thermal oxidation process to conformally form an insulating material layer on the substrate 100 . In this embodiment, the first insulating layer 104 has a substantially uniform thickness, that is, the thickness of the portion of the first insulating layer 104 located on the bottom surface of the trench 102 is substantially equal to the thickness of the first insulating layer 104 located on the trench 102 The thickness of the part on the side wall. Then, a first conductive layer 106 is formed on the first insulating layer 104 in the trench 102 . In this embodiment, the first conductive layer 106 is a polysilicon layer. A method for forming the first conductive layer 106 is, for example, a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process, so as to fill the conductive material layer into the trench 102 . Since the trenches 102 generally have a relatively high aspect ratio, after the conductive material layer is filled into the trenches 102 , holes or pores 106 a are inevitably formed in the first conductive layer 106 formed. Generally, holes or pores 106a are mostly formed in the upper portion of the first conductive layer 106 . In FIG. 1B , only one hole or aperture 106a is shown for clarity of the drawing and convenience of description, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

然後,參照圖1C,移除部分第一導電層106,保留位於溝槽102的下部處的第一導電層106。在本實施例中,進行回蝕刻(etching-back)製程,以移除位於溝槽102之外的第一導電層106以及位於溝槽102中的部分第一導電層106。如此一來,可去除第一導電層106中的孔洞或孔隙106a。之後,於溝槽102中的第一導電層106上形成保護層108。在本實施例中,保護層108的形成方法例如是先於基底100上共形地形成層覆蓋第一導電層106的頂面與第一絕緣層104的保護材料層,然後進行蝕刻製程來移除溝槽102外的第一絕緣層104的頂面上的保護材料層。在本實施例中,保護材料層為氮化矽層,但本發明不限於此。在其他實施例中,只要在後續的蝕刻製程中,保護材料層相較於第一絕緣層104具有較低的蝕刻速率即可。此外,在本實施例中,保護材料層共形地形成基底100上,亦即保護材料層未填滿溝槽102,但本發明不限於此。在其他實施例中,保護材料層可填滿溝槽102。Then, referring to FIG. 1C , a portion of the first conductive layer 106 is removed, leaving the first conductive layer 106 at the lower portion of the trench 102 . In this embodiment, an etching-back process is performed to remove the first conductive layer 106 located outside the trench 102 and a part of the first conductive layer 106 located in the trench 102 . As such, the holes or pores 106a in the first conductive layer 106 can be removed. After that, a protective layer 108 is formed on the first conductive layer 106 in the trench 102 . In this embodiment, the method for forming the protective layer 108 is, for example, to form a protective material layer on the substrate 100 conformally covering the top surface of the first conductive layer 106 and the first insulating layer 104, and then perform an etching process to remove A layer of protective material on the top surface of the first insulating layer 104 except for the trenches 102 .

In other embodiments, as long as the protective material layer has a lower etching rate than the first insulating layer 104 in the subsequent etching process. In addition, in this embodiment, the protective material layer is conformally formed on the substrate 100 , that is, the protective material layer does not fill the trench 102 , but the invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the protective material layer may fill the trenches 102 .

接著,參照圖1D,移除保護層108與溝槽102的側壁之間的部分第一絕緣層104。在本實施例中,移除部分第一絕緣層104的方法例如是進行回蝕刻製程。由於保護層108相較於第一絕緣層104具有較低的蝕刻速率,因此在移除部分第一絕緣層104之後,保護層108仍可保留於第一導電層106上。此外,在本實施例中,在移除部分第一絕緣層104之後,剩餘的第一絕緣層104的頂面高於第一導電層106的頂面,但本發明不限於此。在其他實施例中,剩餘的第一絕緣層104的頂面可與第一導電層106的頂面共平面。之後,於溝槽102的暴露出的側壁上以及磊晶層100b的頂面上形成第二絕緣層110。在本實施例中,第二絕緣層110為氧化矽層。第二絕緣層110的形成方法例如是進行熱氧化製程。由於保護層108保留於第一導電層106上,因此第二絕緣層110不會形成於第一導電層106上。Next, referring to FIG. 1D , a portion of the first insulating layer 104 between the protective layer 108 and the sidewall of the trench 102 is removed. In this embodiment, the method for removing part of the first insulating layer 104 is, for example, performing an etch-back process. Since the protective layer 108 has a lower etching rate than the first insulating layer 104 , the protective layer 108 can still remain on the first conductive layer 106 after a portion of the first insulating layer 104 is removed. In addition, in this embodiment, after removing part of the first insulating layer 104 , the top surface of the remaining first insulating layer 104 is higher than the top surface of the first conductive layer 106 , but the invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the top surface of the remaining first insulating layer 104 may be coplanar with the top surface of the first conductive layer 106 . After that, a second insulating layer 110 is formed on the exposed sidewalls of the trench 102 and the top surface of the epitaxial layer 100b. In this embodiment, the second insulating layer 110 is a silicon oxide layer. The formation method of the second insulating layer 110 is, for example, a thermal oxidation process. Since the protective layer 108 remains on the first conductive layer 106 , the second insulating layer 110 is not formed on the first conductive layer 106 .

Next, a second conductive layer 112 is formed on the first conductive layer 106 . In this embodiment, the second conductive layer 112 is a polysilicon layer. The formation method of the second conductive layer 112 is, for example, performing a chemical vapor deposition process to fill the conductive material layer into the trench 102 , and then performing an etch back process to remove the conductive material layer outside the trench 102 and the trench 102 . Part of the conductive material layer in 102 , so that the top surface of the remaining conductive material layer is higher than the top surface of the first insulating layer 104 .

In this embodiment, an etch-back process may be performed to remove the second insulating layer 110 over the second conductive layer 112 until the top surface of the remaining second insulating layer 110 and the top surface of the second conductive layer 112 are coplanar. Then, a third insulating layer 116 is formed on the second conductive layer 112 and on the exposed sidewalls of the trench 102 . In this embodiment, the third insulating layer 116 is a silicon oxide layer. The formation method of the third insulating layer 116 is, for example, a thermal oxidation process. Next, a third conductive layer 118 is formed on the third insulating layer 116 . In this embodiment, the third conductive layer 118 is a polysilicon layer. The third conductive layer 118 is formed by, for example, performing a chemical vapor deposition process to fill the conductive material layer into the trench 102 , and then performing an etch-back process to remove the conductive material layer outside the trench 102 .

在本實施例中,第三導電層118可作為本實施例的溝槽式電晶體的第二電極120(閘極)。位於第一電極114與第二電極120之間的第三絕緣層116可作為閘間介電層,而位於第二電極120與基底100(磊晶層100b)之間的第三絕緣層116可作為閘介電層。In this embodiment, the third conductive layer 118 can be used as the second electrode 120 (gate) of the trench transistor of this embodiment.

During the steps shown in FIG. 1E , the conductive material layer located in the trench 102 is removed by an etch-back process until the top surface of the remaining conductive material layer is not higher than the top surface of the first insulating layer 104 . In this way, as shown in FIG. 2 , in the trench transistor 20 , the top surface of the formed second conductive layer 200 can be coplanar with the top surface of the first insulating layer 104 . In other embodiments, the top surface of the formed second conductive layer 200 may be lower than the top surface of the first insulating layer 104 . The first conductive layer 106 and the second conductive layer 200 constitute the first electrode 202 of the trench transistor of the present embodiment, so that the cross section of the first electrode 202 serving as a shielding electrode or a source electrode presents an "1" type, that is, the upper portion The width is substantially equal to the width of the lower part. In addition, since there is the first insulating layer 104 between the entire first electrode 202 and the substrate 100 , the step of forming the second insulating layer 110 in FIG. 1D can also be omitted.

在上述實施例中,在圖1B所述的步驟中,所形成的第一絕緣層104具有實質上均勻的厚度,但本發明不限於此。在其他實施例中,所形成的第一絕緣層104可不具有實質上均勻的厚度。In the above-mentioned embodiment, in the steps described in FIG. 1B , the formed first insulating layer 104 has a substantially uniform thickness, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the first insulating layer 104 may not be formed with a substantially uniform thickness.

圖3A至圖3C為依據本發明另一實施例所繪示的溝槽式電晶體的製造流程剖面示意圖。在本實施例中,與圖1A至圖1G相同的構件將以相同的元件符號表示,且不再對其進行說明。3A to 3C are schematic cross-sectional views illustrating a manufacturing process of a trench transistor according to another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the same components as those in FIGS. 1A to 1G will be denoted by the same reference numerals, and will not be described again.

首先,參照圖3A,在如圖1A所述的形成溝槽102之後,於溝槽102的底部形成第一絕緣層104a。在本實施例中,第一絕緣層104a為氧化矽層。此外,第一絕緣層104a的位於溝槽102的底面上的部分的厚度大於第一絕緣層104a的位於溝槽102的側壁上的部分的厚度。也就是說,在本實施例中,第一絕緣層104a不具有實質上均勻的厚度,其可藉由調整製程參數的方式來形成,且此方式為本領域技術人員所熟知,於此不再贅述。First, referring to FIG. 3A , after the trench 102 is formed as described in FIG. 1A , a first insulating layer 104 a is formed at the bottom of the trench 102 . In this embodiment, the first insulating layer 104a is a silicon oxide layer. In addition, the thickness of the portion of the first insulating layer 104a on the bottom surface of the trench 102 is greater than the thickness of the portion of the first insulating layer 104a on the sidewall of the trench 102 . That is to say, in this embodiment, the first insulating layer 104a does not have a substantially uniform thickness, and it can be formed by adjusting the process parameters, and this method is well known to those skilled in the art, and will not be repeated here. Repeat.

接著,參照圖3B,進行圖1B與圖1C所述的步驟,於溝槽102中的第一絕緣層104上形成第一導電層106。此時,第一導電層106的下方存在厚度相對大的第一絕緣層104。由於第一絕緣層104a在溝槽102的底部處具有相對大的厚度,因此降低了溝槽102的深寬比,進而可改善在形成第一導電層106時孔洞或孔隙106a(如圖1B所示)的形成。Next, referring to FIG. 3B , the steps described in FIGS. 1B and 1C are performed to form a first conductive layer 106 on the first insulating layer 104 in the trench 102 . At this time, the first insulating layer 104 with a relatively large thickness exists under the first conductive layer 106 . Since the first insulating layer 104a has a relatively large thickness at the bottom of the trench 102, the aspect ratio of the trench 102 is reduced, which in turn can improve the voids or voids 106a when the first conductive layer 106 is formed (as shown in FIG. 1B ). shown) formation.

之後,參照圖3C,進行圖1C至圖1G所述的步驟,以形成本實施例的溝槽式電晶體30。在溝槽式電晶體30中,由於第一電極114下方存在厚度相對較大的第一絕緣層104,因此可進一步避免溝槽式電晶體30在操作的過程中自底部產生漏電流的問題。After that, referring to FIG. 3C , the steps described in FIGS. 1C to 1G are performed to form the trench transistor 30 of the present embodiment. In the trench transistor 30 , since the first insulating layer 104 with a relatively large thickness exists under the first electrode 114 , the problem of leakage current from the bottom of the trench transistor 30 during operation can be further avoided.

此外,在其他實施例中,也可如同圖2而形成「l」型的作為蔽電極或源電極的第一電極。In addition, in other embodiments, the “1” type first electrode serving as the shield electrode or the source electrode can also be formed as shown in FIG. 2 .

綜上所述,在本發明的溝槽式電晶體中,使用保護層以及採用多階段的方式來形成作為遮蔽電極或源電極的導電層,因此可有效地避免導電層中存在孔洞或孔隙。如此一來,本發明的溝槽式電晶體不會受到孔洞或孔性的影響而能夠具有穩定的電性表現。To sum up, in the trench transistor of the present invention, the protective layer is used and the conductive layer as the shielding electrode or the source electrode is formed in a multi-stage manner, thus effectively avoiding holes or pores in the conductive layer. In this way, the trench transistor of the present invention can have stable electrical performance without being affected by holes or porosity.
