Description

一种斜场板功率器件及斜场板功率器件的制备方法
本专利申请要求于2014年09月01日提交的,申请号为201410440179.2,申请人为苏州捷芯威半导体有限公司,发明名称为“一种斜场板功率器件及斜场板功率器件的制备方法”的中国专利申请的优先权,该申请的全文以引用的方式并入本申请中。
技术领域
本发明涉及半导体技术领域,具体涉及一种斜场板功率器件及斜场板功率器件的制备方法。
背景技术
第三代半导体氮化镓(GaN)材料的击穿电场远高于第一代半导体硅(Si)材料或第二代半导体砷化镓(GaAs)材料,因此基于氮化镓的电子器件能承受更高的工作电压。此外,氮化镓可以与其他III-N族化合物半导体形成异质结,并且具有高浓度的二维电子气(Two-Dimensional Electron Gas,简称2DEG)沟道,因此,高电压大电流的特性使氮化镓高电子迁移率晶体管(High Electron Mobility Transistor,简称HEMT)特别适用于制造大功率电子器件,从而具有很好的应用前景。
HEMT器件属于一种平面沟道场效应晶体管,其栅极靠近漏极方向的边缘往往聚集大部分电场线,形成一个高电场尖峰,当在栅极和漏极之间施加的电压增大时,此处的电场就会迅速增高,使得栅极泄漏电流增大,这种局部区域的高电场很容易引起器件因发生雪崩击穿而失效,从而降低器件的击穿电压。同时,随着工作时间的增加,高电场也会引起器件表面介质层或半导体材料层退化、变性,进而影响器件工作可靠性,降低器件寿命。
现有技术一般在栅极靠近漏极的一侧放置一个场板,以降低器件的栅极附近的强电场,从而提高器件的击穿电压并获得优良的可靠性。图1是现有技术 中场板功率器件的结构图,如图1所示,该场板功率器件包括衬底101、顺次堆叠于衬底101上的成核层102、缓冲层103、沟道层104和势垒层105、位于势垒层105上的源极106、漏极107以及位于源极106和漏极107之间的栅极108、位于栅极108上和栅极108与源极106和漏极107之间的势垒层105上的介质层109,以及位于介质层109上的金属场板结构110,所述金属场板110的底部平行于势垒层105,通常与源极106或栅极108连接,在栅漏区域可以产生一个附加电势,可以有效地平抑栅极108接近漏极107边沿附近的电场尖峰,从而提高器件击穿电压及器件可靠性。由于这种场板的底部与器件势垒层105表面是平行的,因此在减小靠近栅极108边缘的电场尖峰同时,会在场板终端附近形成一个新的较小的电场尖峰,这个新出现的电场尖峰峰值会随着场板长度的增加而增加,容易造成场板终端区域器件击穿或失效,器件击穿问题没有得到根本解决,只是将矛盾从一个地方转移到了另一个地方,而且场板过长会产生较大的寄生电容,影响器件高频功率特性。
为了改善这种状态,现有技术中,往往采用多层(如三层)依次逐渐走高的场板结构,形成电势的梯度分布。这种梯度分布的场板结构必须由多步光刻、介质沉积、金属沉积等工艺配合完成,制作工艺复杂,同时会增加器件的制造成本。而且,这种多级场板不能使器件表面电场完全均匀分布,从而难以实现最佳的器件性能。
发明内容
有鉴于此,本发明实施例提供一种斜场板功率器件及斜场板功率器件的制备方法,以平抑功率器件表面的高电场尖峰、消除易击穿区域、提高器件的耐压性、改善器件的高频特性并降低制造工艺的复杂性和制造成本。

位于势垒层124上的源极13和漏极14分别与2DEG接触,栅极15位于源极13和漏极14之间且位于势垒层124上,栅极15可以是T形栅,当在栅极15上施加适当的偏压时,电流通过沟道层123和势垒层124界面之间的2DEG导电沟道在源极13和漏极14之间流动。
所述介质层16能够对所述斜场板功率器件中多层半导体层的表面进行钝化保护。
位于在所述栅极15与漏极14之间的介质层16上的凹槽,所述凹槽的侧面具有倾斜度,在所述凹槽的内壁上沉积有斜场板结构17,该斜场板结构17的形状为直线形,该凹槽的底部在向漏极14延伸的过程中距离多层半导体层12的距离越来越远,当有外加电压施加到漏极14上时,斜场板结构17可以对功率器件的表面电场进行调节,随着斜场板结构17靠近漏极14的一端距离多层半导体层12越来越远,相对于现有技术中的场板来说,场板终端的电场尖峰也被 平抑,整个电场分布更加均匀,栅极15靠近漏极14的电场尖峰也被拉低,如图3所示,图3是本发明实施例一中斜场板功率器件与现有技术中场板功率器件在高压状态下器件表面的电场分布示意图,图中,横坐标表示电场分布位置,纵坐标表示器件表面的电场,实线表示现有技术中场板功率器件在高压状态下器件表面电场分布示意图,虚线表示本发明实施例一提供的斜场板功率器件在高压状态下器件表面电场分布示意图,从图中可以发现,现有技术中由于这种场板的底部与器件势垒层表面是平行的,在减小靠近栅极边缘的电场尖峰同时,会在场板终端附近形成一个新的较小的电场尖峰,这个新出现的电场尖峰峰值会随着场板长度的增加而增加,容易造成场板终端区域器件击穿或失效,器件击穿问题没有得到根本解决,本发明实施例一提供的斜场板功率器件表面不再产生明显的高尖峰电场,易击穿区域被消除,器件整体耐压性提高,并且随着斜场板远离器件表面,产生的寄生电容效应逐渐减弱,改善了场板对器件高频特性的影响。
下面,对本发明实现上述斜场板半导体器件的制造方法做详细说明。
参见图4A-图4F,图4A-图4F是本发明实施例一提供的斜场板功率器件的制备方法各步骤对应结构的剖面图,该斜场板功率器件的制备方法用于制备如图2所示的斜场板功率器件,该斜场板功率器件的制造方法包括:
步骤S11、在衬底11上形成半导体层12。
参见图4A,具体地,可在衬底11上顺次形成成核层121、缓冲层122、沟道层123和势垒层124,其中,沟道层123和势垒层124形成异质结结构,异质界面处形成有2DEG。
步骤S12、在多层半导体层12上形成源极13、漏极14及位于源极13和漏极14之间的栅极15。
参见图4B,源极13和漏极14分别与异质结界面处的2DEG接触,源极13和漏极14的形成工艺可包括高温退火法或重掺杂法或离子注入法等。
步骤S13、在所述栅极15上、栅极15与源极13之间和栅极15与漏极14之间的多层半导体层12上形成介质层16。
参见图4C,在栅极15上以及栅极15与源极13之间、栅极15与漏极14 之间的多层半导体层12上形成介质层16,介质层16起钝化作用,用于保护斜场板功率器件的表面。
步骤S14,在介质层16上形成凹槽,所述凹槽的侧面具有倾斜度。
具体地,可通过干法刻蚀或湿法腐蚀的方法在介质层16上形成凹槽。
参见图4D,在介质层16上使用正胶18做光刻工艺,采用特殊设计的掩膜板对斜场板区域进行光刻,通过调整掩膜板上遮光点阵的密度,使得斜场板区域在栅极15附近到远离栅极15而靠近漏极14的方向上先逐渐增强曝光度再逐渐降低曝光度的掩膜设计,显影后在光刻胶上形成具有一定倾斜度的凹槽,在本发明中,对凹槽的倾斜度不做限定,最佳倾斜度可根据工艺或功率器件的设计要求来进行设定。
参见图4E,在光刻胶上形成具有一定倾斜度的凹槽以后,采用干法刻蚀工艺,对光刻区域进行刻蚀,通过优化光刻胶和介质层16的刻蚀选择比,例如:光刻胶和介质层16的刻蚀选择比为1∶1,从而保证刻蚀以后介质层16中形成凹槽的形状与光刻胶上凹槽的形状一致,从而在介质层16上形成具有一定倾斜度的凹槽,所述凹槽的底部在向漏极14延伸的过程中距离多层半导体层12的距离逐渐增大。
优选的,为了控制凹槽距离多层半导体层12的距离,可在介质层16内插入刻蚀控制层来精确控制刻蚀深度,形成满足设计条件的凹槽。
需要说明的是,在本步骤中,采用干法刻蚀工艺在介质层16上刻蚀凹槽的过程中,当位于栅极15上介质层16的厚度比较薄时,该部分介质层16被完全刻蚀掉,当位于栅极15上介质层16的厚度比较厚时,该部分介质层16没有被完全刻蚀掉,形成如图4E所示的结构。
步骤S15,在所述凹槽的内壁上形成斜场板结构17。
参见图4F,所述斜场板结构17的材料为金属,具体地,可通过金属蒸发工艺或金属溅射工艺或金属化学气相淀积工艺在所述凹槽的内壁上形成斜场板结构17,所述斜场板结构17完全覆盖了介质层16上的凹槽。
所述金属斜场板结构17的长度、厚度以及斜场板结构距离多层半导体层表面的距离可根据功率器件的设计需求进行调整。
需要说明的是,以上虽然以使用特殊设计的掩膜板光刻、介质刻蚀,金属蒸发等工艺为例描述了如何形成斜场板结构,但是应该理解,所述斜场板结构的形成工艺也可以使用本领域的技术人员公知的其它工艺方法来形成,在此不作限定。
所述斜场板功率器件可应用于本发明也可以应用在任何需要使用场板的器件中,包括高压横向扩散金属氧化物半导体(Laterally Diffused Metal Oxide Semiconductor,简称LDMOS)功率器件、氮化镓高电子迁移率射频器件、电力电子器件、SiC功率器件、GaAs器件或其他半导体器件等。
本发明实施例提供的斜场板功率器件的制备方法,制备工艺简单,且不需要增加功率器件的制造成本,能够使功率器件表面电场分布均匀,消除了易击穿区域,提高了功率器件整体的耐压性并改善了功率器件的高频特性。
图5-图9是本发明实施例一的优选实施例提供的斜场板功率器件的结构图,具体如下:
优选的,多层半导体层12还包括位于沟道层123和势垒层124之间的插入层125,所述插入层125的材料可以为AlN,如图5所示。
由于AlN的禁带宽度非常高,可以更有效地将电子限制在异质结势井中,从而提高2DEG的浓度,此外,AlN插入层125还将2DEG导电沟道与势垒层124隔离开,减小了势垒层124对电子的散射效应,从而提高电子的迁移率,使得器件整体特性得以提高。
优选的,多层半导体层12还包括位于缓冲层122和沟道层123之间的背势垒层126,所述背势垒层126的材料可以为AlGaN,如图6所示。
在一定外加电压下,2DEG导电沟道中的电子会进入缓冲层122,尤其是在短沟道器件中这种现象更为严重,使得栅极15对2DEG导电沟道电子的控制相对变弱,出现短沟道效应;加上缓冲层122材料中的缺陷和杂质比较多,会对沟道中的2DEG产生影响,如产生电流崩塌,通过引入AlGaN背势垒层126可以将2DEG导电沟道电子与缓冲层122隔离开,将2DEG有效地限制在沟道层123中,改善短沟道效应及电流崩塌效应。
优选的,所述斜场板功率器件还包括位于多层半导体层12和栅极15之间 的栅介质18,如图7所示。
该栅介质18既可作为功率器件的钝化层,又可作为栅极绝缘层,可有效降低栅极15的漏电电流,调节开启电压。所述栅介质18的材料可包括SiN、SiO2、SiON、Al2O3、HfO2、HfAlOx中的任意一种或任意几种的组合。
优选的,栅极15可至少部分设置于势垒层124的凹处,如图8所示,通过刻蚀势垒层124形成凹槽,再沉积金属形成栅极15,可以减小栅极金属下材料表面缺陷及表面态的影响,降低漏电,提高击穿电压;同时由于栅极15距离2DEG导电沟道距离更近,对2DEG的控制作用更强,提高了器件的高频特性。需要说明的是,在本实施例中,需要控制对势垒层124的刻蚀深度,当势垒层刻蚀深度较大,凹槽下的二维电子气会降低或消失,该功率器件可实现增强型器件功能。
优选的,栅极15可以为斜面栅,如图9所示,通过优化刻蚀条件,在刻蚀栅槽区域的介质层16时形成斜面凹槽,再沉积金属形成斜面栅极,斜面栅极技术既可以降低栅极15靠近漏极14电场强度,并能够减小栅极15漏电电流,从而提高器件击穿电压,此外,采用斜面栅结构不会引入过大的寄生电容,对器件高频特性影响不大,配合本发明实施例中的斜场板结构17对器件特性的改善更加明显。
本发明实施例一提供的斜场板功率器件及斜场板功率器件的制备方法,使得功率器件整个电场分布更加均匀,栅极接近漏极处的电场尖峰也被拉低,功率器件表面不再产生明显的高尖峰电场,消除了易击穿区域,提高了功率器件整体的耐压性、改善了功率器件的高频特性并降低制造工艺的复杂性和制造成本。

本发明实施例二以上述实施例一为基础,与实施例一的不同之处在于,实施例二中斜场板结构27的形状在靠近栅极25的一侧为直线形,在靠近漏极24的一侧为上凸曲线形,该斜场板结构27的最低端在向漏极24靠近的过程中距离多层半导体层22的距离逐渐增加。
在本实施例中,通过设计掩膜板上的遮光点阵密度,可以形成上凸曲线形状的斜场板结构,相比直线形斜场板通过倾斜角度来优化电场分布,曲线形斜场板可以通过曲线弧度来调整电场分布,增加了优化电场分布的方法,该形状的斜场板结构27能够很好地调节斜场板靠近漏极24一端的电场,能够更好的改善器件特性。

本实施例三以上述实施例为基础,与上述实施例的不同之处在于,斜场板结构37在靠近漏极34一端形成下凹曲线形状的斜场板结构,下凹曲线形状的斜场板前段更加贴近功率器件表面,可以加强对功率器件表面电场的调制作用。本发明实施例三提供的斜场板功率器件中斜场板结构的形状可通过设计掩膜板上的遮光点阵的密度来实现。

本发明实施例四以上述实施例为基础,与上述实施例的不同之处在于,斜场板结构47在向漏极44靠近的过程中,在前半段形成直线形结构,该部分直线形结构的斜场板平行于多层半导体层,在后半段(即靠近漏极44的一段)形成下凹形状的斜场板,该形状的斜场板结构47能够很好地对功率器件表面的电场分布进行调节,本发明实施例四的斜场板功率器件中斜场板结构的形状可通过设计掩膜板上的遮光点阵的密度来实现。

本发明实施例五以上述实施例为基础,与上述实施例的不同之处在于,实施例五中斜场板结构57的形状为锯齿形,这样可以降低场板末端的电场峰值,并使其分布更加均匀,锯齿形斜场板的尺寸和形状由工艺和设计决定,所述锯齿形的斜场板结构57可通过设计掩膜板上的遮光点阵的密度来实现。
实施例六

参见图16A,在栅极75与漏极74之间的介质层76上使用正胶做光刻工艺对斜场板区域进行光刻,从而在光刻胶上形成一个凹槽,之后采用干法刻蚀工 艺,随光刻区域进行刻蚀,通过优化光刻胶和介质层76的刻蚀选择比,从而在介质层76中形成与光刻胶上形状一致的凹槽。
参见图16B,在栅极75与漏极74之间的介质层76上的凹槽中沉积多层SiOxNy结构,每一层的组份比例按照设计要求变化,例如:从上往下每一层Si组份递减,然后使用抛光工艺,去除斜场板区域外的SiOxNy层,在本步骤中,位于栅极75上的介质层76被一起抛光磨平,从而形成与斜场板区域中SiOxNy层表面平齐的结构。
参见图16C,在斜场板区域进行光刻和湿法腐蚀,并利用不同组份SiOxNy腐蚀速率不同的特点,形成符合要求阶梯形凹槽。
