- the anode electrode 10, the guard ring electrode 12 and the stop electrode 13 are formed of, for example, an Al-Si film.
- FIG. 2 is a diagram for explaining the behavior of holes in the structure of FIG. 1, (a) is a diagram at the time of energization, and (b) is a diagram at the time of reverse recovery.
- FIG. 2 as in FIG. 11, accumulation of hole-electron pairs also occurs in the n drift region 2 below the active portion 14 when power is supplied, but illustration is omitted.
- FIG. 2A the injection 21 of holes from the p diffusion region 5 in contact with the resistance region 6 is smaller than that of the p anode region 4 at the time of energization. Also, the injection 21 of holes from the resistance region 6 decreases from the contact end 30 toward the edge termination structure 17 side.
- the injection 21 of holes from the resistance end region 7 provided on the innermost periphery of the edge termination structure 17 in contact with the outer end 6a of the resistance region 6 has a high impurity concentration in the resistance end region 7
- the injection 21 of holes from the inner end 6 b of the resistance region 6 is larger. Therefore, the location where the hole injection 21 becomes large is dispersed to the outer end 6 a and the inner end 6 b of the resistance region 6.
- the injection 21a of holes from the p diffusion region 5 is suppressed because the impurity concentration is low.
- the p diffusion region 5 itself functions as a current limiting resistor R because the impurity concentration is low. Therefore, the injection 21 a of holes from the p diffusion region 5 in contact with the resistance region 6 is suppressed as compared to the case where the p diffusion region 5 is not provided, and current concentration is suppressed.
- FIG. 2B at the time of reverse recovery, accumulation 22 of holes accumulated in the lower part of the edge termination structure 17 is extracted from the resistance end region 7 and the resistance region 6. Since the resistance value Rp is high in the resistance end region 7 and the resistance region 6, the holes are transferred to the p anode region 4 through the resistance region 6 (see the reference numeral 23 in FIG. 2B). A potential difference occurs when you This potential difference is approximately 100 to 200 V depending on the resistance of the resistance region 6.
- the amount of hole extraction (see reference numeral 23a in FIG. 2B) is small, and most of the accumulated hole accumulation 22 is extracted in the p diffusion region 5 and the p anode region 4. Also, the concentration of the p diffusion region 5 is lower than that of the p anode region 4 and the diffusion depth is deeper. Therefore, the accumulated holes 22 are not only directed to the contact end 30 but are also diverted to the p anode region 4 on the inner peripheral side of the p diffusion region 5, which causes current concentration to the contact end 30. In order to alleviate, reverse recovery tolerance is improved.
- FIG. 16 is a schematic view showing the relationship between the equipotential line 41 and the extraction of holes (see reference numeral 23 in FIG. 16) in reverse recovery in the cross section of the diode of the first embodiment.
- the equipotential lines 41 are illustrated only on the low voltage side, and the high voltage side (n cathode region 15 side) is not shown.
- the line at the same potential as the anode electrode 10 (which becomes the depletion layer end) in the p diffusion region 5 has a shallower distribution due to its lower concentration than the p anode region 4.
- the equipotential line 41 extends in the depth direction because the p diffusion region 5 is deep diffused. That is, equipotential lines 41 are distributed deeper than p anode region 4 and resistance region 6. Thereby, in the vicinity of the pn junction of this p diffusion region 5, the gradient of the potential becomes gentle. That is, the electric field strength is alleviated.
- the holes run down the space charge region along the potential gradient, so that the holes avoid this relaxation region and fall toward the steep side of the potential gradient, that is, the p anode region 4 side.
- the contact end 30 is located inside the low concentration p diffusion region 5. Therefore, holes are affected by the high resistance of the p diffusion region 5 and flow from the p anode region 4 having a lower resistance to the anode electrode 10. That is, the hole current is diverted to the p anode region 4 rather than the p diffusion region 5.
- the three p-type diffusion regions of the buffer region 18 may have at least two different diffusion depths in addition to the integral concentration as described above, and the effect of the diversion can be further enhanced.
- the holes flow from the p anode region 4 to the anode electrode 10 without being concentrated at the contact end 30, the current concentration at the contact end 30 is alleviated, and element breakdown is prevented. Further, as described above, by providing the p diffusion region 5, it is possible to prevent current concentration at the time of reverse recovery as well as at the time of energization. As a result, the semiconductor device 100 having high reverse recovery tolerance can be manufactured.
- FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of main parts of a semiconductor device 200 according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
- the difference from Example 1 is that a high concentration p region 25 (p + ) with a shallow diffusion depth is formed on the p anode region 4 and the p diffusion region 5.
- p + high concentration p region 25
- p diffusion region 5 When the surface concentration of the p diffusion region 5 is low, ohmic contact with the anode electrode 10 becomes difficult, and the contact resistance increases. As the contact resistance increases, the amount of holes extracted from the p diffusion region 5 decreases, and most of the holes are extracted in the p anode region 4. As a result, current concentration occurs in the p-anode region 4 to cause element breakdown.
- p region 25 which has a higher impurity concentration and a shallower diffusion depth than p diffusion region 5 in order to reduce the contact resistance with anode electrode 10 while keeping the impurity concentration in p diffusion region 5 low. It is good to provide.
- the amount of holes extracted in the p diffusion region 5 is increased, current concentration in the p anode region is improved, and element breakdown can be prevented.
- the impurity concentration in the p guard ring region 8 is high and the impurity concentration in the p diffusion region 5 is lowered in the first and second embodiments described above, the impurity concentration in the p guard ring region 8 is the impurity in the p diffusion region 5 It may be adjusted to the concentration. In this case, since both can be formed simultaneously, the manufacturing cost of the semiconductor devices 100 and 200 can be reduced.
- FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of main parts of a semiconductor device 300 according to a third embodiment of the present invention.
- the difference between this semiconductor device 300 and the first embodiment is the following two points.
- the first point is that the resistance region 26 which is deeper than the diffusion depth of the p anode region 4 and the resistance region 6 and shallower than the diffusion depth of the p guard ring region 8 is disposed in contact with the p anode region 4 and the resistance end region 7 is there.
- the second point is that the end of the portion where the p anode region 4 contacts the anode electrode 10 is separated (retracted) from the resistance region 26.
- the insulating film 11 is shown as a two-layer insulating film of PSG film 11b of phosphorus glass and thermal oxide film 11a.
- the buffer region 18 of Example 3 also has three different resistance regions.
- the first resistance region is a p anode region 4 which extends (or recedes) a distance T from the contact end 30 to the chip periphery.
- the second resistance region is a resistance region 26 connected to the extension of the p anode region 4.
- the third resistance area is a resistance end area 7 connected to the outer peripheral side of the resistance area 26.
- the resistance region 26 By making the resistance region 26 deeper than the diffusion depth of the p anode region 4, the amount of holes extracted in the resistance region 26 increases, and the extraction of holes including the p anode region 4 is equalized. Ru.
- the surface impurity concentration of the resistance region 26 is equal to the surface impurity concentration of the resistance region 6, the diffusion depth of the resistance region 26 is deeper than the diffusion depth of the resistance region 6.
- the value Rp1 is smaller than the resistance value Rp of the resistance region 6 (see FIG. 3).
- the integrated concentrations of p anode region 4 and resistance region 26 are different.
- the resistance end region 7 has the same high concentration as the p guard ring region 8 and a deep diffusion depth, so the resistance value is low.
- the effect of extracting holes is higher in the resistance region 26 than in the resistance region 6, and the extraction of holes including the p anode region 4 is equalized.
- the resistance region 26 may have the same diffusion depth as the resistance region 6 described above. However, in the case where the resistance region 26 has the same diffusion depth as the above-described resistance region 6, the resistance depth is made deeper than the diffusion depth of the p anode region 4.
- the outer peripheral portion of the p anode region 4 not in contact with the anode electrode 10 acts as a resistor Ra. That is, the receding portion 27 of the p anode region 4 receded from the resistance region 26 functions like the p diffusion region 5 of the first and second embodiments.
- FIG. 17 is a schematic view showing the relationship between the equipotential line 41 and the extraction of holes (see reference numeral 23 in FIG. 17) in reverse recovery in the cross section of the diode of the third embodiment.
- the equipotential lines 41 are illustrated only on the low voltage side, and the high voltage side (n cathode region 15 side) is not shown.
- the equipotential line 41 at the time of reverse recovery is pushed out toward the n drift region 2 in the resistance region 26 whose diffusion depth is deeper than that of the p anode region 4. That is, as in the first embodiment, in the vicinity of the boundary between the p anode region 4 and the resistance region 26, the distribution of the equipotential lines 41 becomes wider, and the potential gradient is relaxed. As a result, the hole extraction (see reference numeral 23 in FIG. 17) is diverted toward the p anode region 4 rather than the contact end 30. Furthermore, since the contact end 30 is recessed from the boundary between the p anode region 4 and the resistance region 26, current concentration on the contact end 30 is avoided.
- the holes flow from the p anode region 4 to the anode electrode without being concentrated at the contact end 30, and the current concentration at the contact end 30 is alleviated and element breakdown is prevented.
- the width (set as the retraction amount T) of the receding portion 27 is set to a proper value, current concentration in the p anode region 4 can be suppressed at the time of reverse recovery, and element breakdown can be prevented.
- FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the relationship between the amount of retreat of the anode contact and the electric field strength.
- E on the vertical axis is an arbitrary scale.
- the electric field strength E is the electric field strength at the time of reverse recovery.
- the electric field strength at which the element breaks is out of the range of the figure, but in order to ensure high reliability, it is necessary to be within the range of the illustrated invention. That is, it is preferable to set the retraction amount T in the range of 2 ⁇ m to 35 ⁇ m. If this range is exceeded, the electric field strength becomes high and high reliability can not be obtained. Further, a more preferable range is 3 ⁇ m to 10 ⁇ m.
- the three p-type diffusion regions of the buffer region 18 may have at least two different diffusion depths in addition to the integral concentration, and the effect of the diversion can be further enhanced.
- FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view of main parts of a semiconductor device 400 according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention.
- the difference between the first embodiment and the second embodiment is that the p diffusion region 5 is removed, and a high concentration p diffusion region 28 is disposed near the middle of the resistance region 6.
- the high concentration p diffusion region 28 is higher than the impurity concentration of the resistance region 6, and the diffusion depth is made deeper. Since the high concentration p diffusion region 28 efficiently withdraws the accumulated holes, current concentration is alleviated, and element breakdown can be prevented.
- the high concentration p diffusion region 28 can be disposed at any position within the resistance region 6.
- the resistance region 6 disposed between the p diffusion region 28 and the p anode region 4 may be formed simultaneously with the p anode region 4 to make the impurity concentration and the diffusion depth the same.
- the entire resistance region 6 may be formed simultaneously with the p anode region 4 to make the impurity concentration and the diffusion depth the same. In this case, since the manufacturing process is simplified, the manufacturing cost can be reduced.
- the buffer region 18 of Example 4 also has three different resistance regions.
- the first resistance region is a resistance region 6 in which the p anode region 4 extends from the contact end 30 to the chip outer peripheral side.
- the second resistance region is p diffusion region 28 connected to the extension of p anode region 4.
- the third resistance region is the same resistance region 6 as the first.
- the resistance value of the buffer region 18 is two kinds of the resistance region 6 having the same concentration distribution as the p anode region 4 and the p diffusion region 28.
- FIG. 18 is a schematic view showing the relationship between equipotential line 41 and hole extraction (see reference numeral 23 in FIG. 18) at the time of reverse recovery in the cross section of the diode of the fourth embodiment.
- the equipotential lines 41 are illustrated only on the low voltage side, and the high voltage side (n cathode region 15 side) is not shown.
- the equipotential line 41 at the time of reverse recovery is pushed out toward the n drift region 2 in the p diffusion region 28 whose diffusion depth is deeper than that of the p anode region 4 and the resistance region 6. That is, as in the first embodiment, the distribution of the equipotential lines 41 becomes wider near the boundary between the resistance region 6 and the p diffusion region 28, and the potential gradient is relaxed. As a result, the hole extraction 23 is diverted toward the p anode region 4 rather than the contact end 30. As a result, the holes flow from the p anode region 4 to the anode electrode 10 without being concentrated at the contact end 30, the current concentration at the contact end 30 is alleviated, and element breakdown is prevented.
- the effect of diversion can be increased.
- the three p-type diffusion regions of the buffer region 18 may have at least two different diffusion depths in addition to the integral concentration, and the effect of the diversion can be further enhanced.
- FIG. 7 is a main part configuration diagram around the p anode region 4 of the semiconductor devices 100 to 400 of the first to fourth embodiments. Here, eight examples are shown.
- the p ⁇ -anode region 31 having a low impurity concentration is disposed on the n drift region 2, and the anode electrode 10 is disposed thereon (the same figure (a)).

- the p region 32 of (2) is selectively disposed not on the entire region of the p ⁇ anode region 31 (FIG. 6 (c)).
- the high concentration p region 33 is selectively disposed in the p - anode region 31 of (1) ((d) in the figure).
- the p ⁇ -anode region 31 in (1) is replaced with a p-anode region 34 having a high impurity concentration and a shallow diffusion depth (the same figure (e)).
- a high concentration p region 32 with a shallow diffusion depth is disposed all over the p anode region 34 of (5), and the anode electrode 10 is disposed thereon (the same figure (f)).
- the p-anode region 34 of (5) is selectively disposed (FIG. 6 (g)).
