This step is a conventional step of photolithography, including steps of coating photoresist, baking, photolithography, cleaning, and the like. After photolithography, an etched pattern is formed on the N-type substrate 100, that is, a part of the surface of the N-type substrate 100 is covered by the photoresist 200, and the other portion is exposed. The exposed portion is the area used to form the P-type region.
步骤S122:根据所述刻蚀图形对N型衬底进行腐蚀形成沟槽。沟槽的深度与形成P+发射区的深度一致或略大。Step S122: etching the N-type substrate according to the etching pattern to form a trench. The depth of the trench is consistent with or slightly larger than the depth at which the P+ emitter region is formed.
步骤S123:在所述沟槽内填充P型硅。所述P型硅为单晶硅、多晶硅或非晶硅。对于多晶硅和非晶硅,还经过加热步骤形成单晶硅。所填充的P型硅的电阻率为0.001~50欧姆•厘米,与N型衬底100的电阻率一致。Step S123: filling the trench with P-type silicon. The P-type silicon is single crystal silicon, polycrystalline silicon or amorphous silicon. For polycrystalline silicon and amorphous silicon, single crystal silicon is also formed through a heating step. The filled P-type silicon has a resistivity of 0.001 to 50 ohm.cm, which is consistent with the resistivity of the N-type substrate 100.
步骤S124:将所述N型衬底表面和P型硅磨平。具体可以采用化学机械研磨等方式。经过本步骤之后,就可以在N型衬底100上形成如图4所示的多个间隔的P型区102,也即最后形成的IGBT的P+发射区。Step S124: Smoothing the surface of the N-type substrate and the P-type silicon. Specifically, chemical mechanical polishing or the like can be used. After this step, a plurality of spaced P-type regions 102 as shown in FIG. 4, that is, P+ emitter regions of the finally formed IGBT, can be formed on the N-type substrate 100.
步骤S103:在所述N型衬底上具有P+发射区的一面外延制备N型漂移区。参考图5,外延制备是指在N型衬底100之上再形成一个衬底,称为外延层。也即图5所示的N型漂移区300。制备外延层的技术较为常规,在此不赘述。所形成的N型漂移区300的厚度为10~650微米,并且与N型衬底100的厚度之和与正常流通硅片的厚度相当。N型漂移区300用于形成IGBT中除P+发射区之外的其他层,本实施例中,称为IGBT的正面结构。也即是说,N型漂移区300的厚度既要能够用于形成完整的IGBT正面结构,又要与N型衬底100一起的厚度与正常流通硅片的厚度相当。正常流通硅片一般是厚度为625微米或675微米的6英寸硅片,或者是厚度为725微米的8英寸硅片。因此,可行的厚度示例为:当用于6英寸硅片工艺时,N型漂移区300为300微米厚,N型衬底100为325微米或375微米厚;当用于8英寸硅片工艺时,N型漂移区300为400微米厚,N型衬底100为325微米厚。当然,也可以选择其他满足上述两个条件的厚度。Step S103: epitaxially preparing an N-type drift region on one side of the N-type substrate having a P+ emitter region. Referring to FIG. 5, epitaxial fabrication refers to forming a substrate, referred to as an epitaxial layer, over the N-type substrate 100. That is, the N-type drift region 300 shown in FIG. The technique for preparing the epitaxial layer is relatively conventional and will not be described here. The thickness of the formed N-type drift region 300 is 10 to 650 μm, and the sum of the thicknesses of the N-type substrate 100 is equivalent to the thickness of the normal-flow silicon wafer. The N-type drift region 300 is used to form other layers of the IGBT other than the P+ emitter region, and is referred to as a front surface structure of the IGBT in this embodiment. That is, the thickness of the N-type drift region 300 can be used to form a complete IGBT front surface structure, and the thickness together with the N-type substrate 100 is equivalent to the thickness of a normal flow silicon wafer. A normal flow silicon wafer is typically a 6 inch silicon wafer having a thickness of 625 microns or 675 microns, or an 8 inch silicon wafer having a thickness of 725 microns. Thus, examples of possible thicknesses are: when used in a 6 inch silicon wafer process, the N-type drift region 300 is 300 microns thick, the N-type substrate 100 is 325 microns or 375 microns thick; when used in an 8-inch silicon wafer process The N-type drift region 300 is 400 microns thick, and the N-type substrate 100 is 325 microns thick. Of course, other thicknesses satisfying the above two conditions can also be selected.
N型漂移区300的电阻率为5~500欧姆•厘米(Ω•cm)。The resistivity of the N-type drift region 300 is 5 to 500 ohm•cm (Ω•cm).
步骤S104:在所述N型漂移区上制备绝缘栅双极型晶体管的正面结构。该正面结构如图6所示。本步骤包括在N型漂移区300上形成P型体区302和在P型体区302上形成N型发射区304。两个P型体区302之间是N型沟道,N型沟道上形成栅极层306。然后分别经过电极引出作为发射极和栅极。Step S104: preparing a front structure of the insulated gate bipolar transistor on the N-type drift region. The front structure is shown in FIG. 6. This step includes forming a P-type body region 302 on the N-type drift region 300 and forming an N-type emitter region 304 on the P-type body region 302. Between the two P-type body regions 302 is an N-type channel, and a gate layer 306 is formed on the N-type channel. They are then taken up through the electrodes as emitters and gates.
步骤S105:将所述N型衬底减薄至N型通道处。将N型衬底100自背向P型区102的一面向P型区102的方向减薄,直至P型区102在N型衬底100的背面也露出。减薄后的N型衬底100如图7所示。减薄N型衬底100的方式可以采用机械研磨。可以理解,为减少减薄时的处理时间和避免减薄N型衬底100产生的浪费,N型衬底100的厚度在保证流通安全的前提下应当尽可能小。Step S105: thinning the N-type substrate to the N-type channel. The N-type substrate 100 is thinned from a direction facing away from the P-type region 102 toward the P-type region 102 until the P-type region 102 is also exposed on the back surface of the N-type substrate 100. The thinned N-type substrate 100 is as shown in FIG. The manner in which the N-type substrate 100 is thinned may be mechanically ground. It can be understood that in order to reduce the processing time at the time of thinning and to avoid the waste generated by the N-type substrate 100, the thickness of the N-type substrate 100 should be as small as possible while ensuring the safety of circulation.
步骤S106:在所述N型衬底背面形成金属电极。即在P+发射区上形成金属层并因此电极作为整个IGBT的集电极,并最终形成NPT IGBT的完整结构,参考图7。本步骤中,可以采用溅射或蒸发方式形成所述金属电极。Step S106: forming a metal electrode on the back surface of the N-type substrate. That is, a metal layer is formed on the P+ emitter region and thus the electrode acts as a collector of the entire IGBT, and finally forms an NPT Refer to Figure 7 for the complete structure of the IGBT. In this step, the metal electrode may be formed by sputtering or evaporation.
上述方法中,采用挖槽填充与外延方式结合制备NPT RC IGBT。其中,N型衬底100上的P/N交隔结构可以采用常规光刻机和挖槽填充设备作业,在其上外延后圆片厚度与正常流通圆片相同,因此与现有的常规工艺兼容。此外,也无需专用的双面曝光设备,大大降低工艺成本。In the above method, NPT RC is prepared by combining trench filling and epitaxy. IGBT. Wherein, the P/N spacer structure on the N-type substrate 100 can be operated by a conventional photolithography machine and a trench filling device, and the thickness of the wafer after epitaxial extension is the same as that of the normal flow wafer, and thus the conventional conventional process compatible. In addition, there is no need for a dedicated double-sided exposure device, which greatly reduces the process cost.
