Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to a silicon carbide (hereinafter referred to as SiC) semiconductor device having a deep layer and a guard ring layer and a method for manufacturing the same.
- SiC silicon carbide
- SiC has been attracting attention as a power device material that can provide high electric field breakdown strength.
- MOSFETs and Schottky diodes have been proposed as SiC power devices (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
- the SiC power device includes a cell part in which a power element such as a MOSFET or a Schottky diode is formed, and a guard ring part surrounding the cell part. Between the cell part and the guard ring part, a connecting part for connecting them is provided, and an electrode pad, for example, is provided on the surface side of the semiconductor substrate in the connecting part. Then, in the outer peripheral region including the guard ring portion, by forming a concave portion in which the surface of the semiconductor substrate is recessed, in the thickness direction of the substrate, the cell portion and the connecting portion become a mesa portion protruding in an island shape. .
- n-type current spreading layer when such an n-type current spreading layer is formed, since the n-type current spreading layer has a relatively high concentration, an electric field easily enters between the p-type guard rings, resulting in a decrease in breakdown voltage due to electric field concentration. . In order to cope with this, it is conceivable to narrow the interval between the p-type guard rings to suppress the entry of the electric field. However, due to the resolution of photolithography and the like, there is a limit to reducing the interval between the p-type guard rings, and it is difficult to reduce the interval to, for example, 0.5 ⁇ m or less. For this reason, there is a concern that it will not be possible to cope with further miniaturization in the future.
- An object of the present disclosure is to provide a SiC semiconductor device having a structure capable of suppressing a decrease in breakdown voltage due to electric field concentration and a manufacturing method thereof when forming a current spreading layer.
- An SiC semiconductor device includes a first or second conductivity type substrate on a cell portion and an outer peripheral portion, and a first conductivity having a lower impurity concentration than that of the substrate. And a first conductivity type current spreading layer formed on the drift layer and having a higher impurity concentration than the drift layer.
- a second conductive type layer formed in a stripe shape on the current spreading layer, a first electrode electrically connected to the second conductive type layer, and electrically connected to the back side of the substrate
- a vertical semiconductor element that has a second electrode and allows a current to flow between the first electrode and the second electrode.
- the guard ring portion is provided with a line-shaped second conductivity type guard ring that is formed from the surface of the current spreading layer and has a plurality of frame shapes surrounding the cell portion.
- a recess in which the current spreading layer is recessed from the cell portion in the guard ring portion, an island-like mesa portion is formed in which the cell portion protrudes from the guard ring portion in the thickness direction of the substrate.
- a second conductivity type electric field relaxation layer having a lower impurity concentration than the guard ring is provided on the surface layer portion of the drift layer from the boundary position between the portion and the concave portion toward the outer peripheral side of the mesa portion.
- the electric field relaxation layer for electric field relaxation is formed on the surface layer portion of the drift layer from the boundary position between the mesa portion and the concave portion toward the outer peripheral side of the mesa portion. For this reason, the electric field can be prevented from entering between the guard rings. Thereby, the electric field concentration is relaxed, the breakdown of the interlayer insulating film due to the electric field concentration is suppressed, and it is possible to suppress the breakdown voltage reduction. Therefore, a SiC semiconductor device capable of obtaining a desired breakdown voltage can be obtained.
- the carrier concentration is higher in the current distribution layer than the current distribution layer and the guard ring in the current distribution layer from the boundary position between the mesa portion and the recess toward the outer periphery side of the mesa portion.
- a lowered electric field relaxation layer of the first conductivity type or the second conductivity type is provided.
- the electric field relaxation layer is formed in the current spreading layer in the guard ring portion. Even if such an electric field relaxation layer is formed, the electric field can be prevented from entering between the guard rings. Therefore, the same effect as that of the SiC semiconductor device according to one aspect of the present disclosure described above can be obtained.
