- the mold base region 6 and the mold source region 8 can be formed with the above impurity concentration and film thickness.
- the film thickness and the impurity concentration of each part are determined as follows.
- the channel length is set while the impurity concentration forming the inverted channel is set when the gate voltage V 9 is applied.

- the second source region 8 13 is a film that does not completely disappear due to a chemical reaction with the source electrode 15 while having an impurity concentration that allows the source electrode 15 to be in ohmic contact. It is set to thick. The higher the n- type impurity concentration of the second source region 8 s, the easier it is to make a talented contact.
- the type source layer 8 may be epitaxially grown and then the type impurities may be ion-implanted to form the type coupling layer 10. In that case, the type source layer 8 may be formed. If the n- type impurity concentration is too high, the type coupling layer 10 cannot have a desired concentration.

- the source electrode 15 is made of a plurality of metals, and the portion which makes a mechanical contact with the second source region 8 is made of, for example, I. In that case, the portion of the second source region 8 that is in contact with 1 ⁇ 1 ⁇ will be 1 ⁇ ]. 8 swallows will disappear. And since the thickness of about 1 ⁇ 1 becomes silicidation due to the silicidation reaction, it is necessary to make sure that the entire second source region (8 wells) does not disappear due to silicidation reaction. 2 The thickness of the source region 8 is set to 0.11 or more.

Further, in the mold base region 6 used for forming the channel region, the variation in film thickness can be reduced, so that the channel length can be accurately created. As a result, it is possible to reduce the variation in the threshold V I of the vertical type 1/103.
- n-type impurities are added back to the type base region 6 to form both the first source region 8 3 and the second source region 8 swath. It is also possible to do so. However, in this case, it is necessary to increase the thickness of the mold base region 6 during the epitaxial growth in consideration of the thickness of the first source region 8 3 and the second source region 8 3 formed by ion implantation. ..
- the variation in film thickness during epitaxial growth increases as the thickness of the grown film increases, but the variation in the range of ion implantation is not so large, so the thickness/variation of the mold base region 6 after ion implantation is The variation corresponds to the thickness of the epitaxially grown film.
- the first source region 8 3 and the second source region are formed by ion implantation. Even after forming 8 13, the film thickness variation of the mold base region 6 is ⁇ 0.21.
- the film thickness variation of the mold base region 6 is different from that of the first source region 8 3 and the second source region 8

- the high-concentration second source region 8 is formed by ion implantation instead of epitaxial growth. For this reason, when n-type dopant remains in the epitaxial growth equipment and contaminates the growth furnace, as in the case of epitaxially growing a high-concentration second source region, the n-type layer or n-type layer is formed later. It is possible to suppress the occurrence of dopant contamination. Therefore, it becomes possible to stably control the impurity concentrations of the type base region 6 and the first source region 83 formed by the epitaxial growth apparatus.
- a mask (not shown) having an opening at the position where the mold coupling layer 10 is to be formed is arranged. Then, after ion-implanting the type impurities from above the mask, a heat treatment of 150 ° C. or more is performed for activation.

- the second region 10 of the mold coupling layer 10 needs to be able to make an artificial contact with the source electrode 15. Therefore, the ion implantation is performed at a dose amount that is 2 to 10 times the type impurity concentration of the second source region 81. Regarding the dose amount, if it is twice as much as the type impurity concentration of the second source region 81, it is thought that the carrier concentration can be such that ohmic contact is made with the source electrode 15, but considering the activation rate, 2 to 10 times is preferable ⁇ 2020/175 157 23 ⁇ (: 170? 2020/005592

- since a large dose causes the generation of crystal defects due to ion implantation, it is necessary to suppress the amount to a certain level.
- the first region 103 since the first region 103 is not a portion that is in ohmic contact with the source electrode 15, it may have a lower type impurity concentration than that of the second region 10. However, here, in consideration of the activation rate, the type impurity is ion-implanted in a dose amount 2 to 10 times that of the first source region 83.
- the total thickness of the type source region 8 into which the type impurities are implanted is not more than 0.8 from the viewpoint of the output of the ion implantation device. It is preferable to do so. In this way, the mold coupling layer 10 can be formed so as to reach the mold base region 6 even with the output of a general-purpose ion implanter, and mass productivity can be ensured. ..

Forming 1 3 This completes the trench gate structure.
- the gate trench 1 1 is formed when the trench wrench gate structure is formed due to the influence of damage at the time of ion implantation.
- the side surface of the is inclined. Therefore, the channel mobility is reduced and the gate trench 11 is widened on the inlet side, which makes it difficult to miniaturize the device.
- the first source region 8 3 is formed by epitaxial growth, and only the second source region 8 13 is formed by ion implantation. Therefore, the inclination of the side surface of the gate trench 11 due to the damage of the ion implantation is suppressed, and the portion in contact with the second source region 8 is rounded and inclined. Therefore, the gate trench 11 is suppressed from becoming wider on the inlet side, and the miniaturization of the device can be promoted.

That is, the type base region 6 side of the type source region 8 has a lower impurity concentration than the surface side contacted with the source electrode 15 and the surface side is a high impurity concentration contacted with the source electrode 15 by ohmic contact. It only has to be the concentration. In other words, there may be a concentration gradient such that the first source region 8 3 and the second source region 8 are gradually increased in impurity concentration toward the source electrode 15 side.
- the n-type impurity concentration is measured after the epitaxial growth by using the 1! type current spreading layer 5, the first source region 8 3, and the type layer. This is explained by taking 2 as an example.
- the ion-implantation step was performed after the epitaxial growth layer was formed on the 3x bulk substrate, and then the gate-shaped current to be the measurement target layer was formed. shows a case that as to form an n-type layer such as distributed layer 5 and the first source region 8 3.
- the epitaxial growth layer formed in the lower layer ⁇ 2020/175 157 35 ⁇ (: 170? 2020 /005592
- the n- type impurity concentration can be measured by the non-contact 0 V concentration evaluation described above.
- the case where the epitaxial growth layer is formed on the 30-bulk substrate, that is, the -type layer 2, which is the 30-layer to be measured, is shown.
- the n- type impurity concentration can be measured by the above-mentioned non-contact 0 V concentration evaluation even when the epitaxial growth of the layer to be measured is directly performed on the 3 ⁇ 3 bulk substrate.
- a vertical channel type 1 ⁇ /103 knives which is an n-channel for the first conductivity type and a mold for the second conductivity type, has been described as an example. However, it is also good as a channel-type vertical type 1 ⁇ /! Further, in the above description, the vertical type 1 ⁇ /103 photo was taken as an example of the semiconductor element, but the present disclosure can be applied to a photo of a similar structure.
- the conductivity type of the n + type substrate 1 is only changed from the door type to the type in the above-mentioned respective embodiments, and other structures and manufacturing methods are the same as those in the above-mentioned respective embodiments Is the same as.
