Description

半导体元胞结构、IGBT元胞结构、半导体结构及其制备方法
本公开要求于2020年09月24日提交中国专利局,申请号为202011017235.3,申请名称为“IGBT元胞结构、半导体结构及IGBT元胞结构的制备方法”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本公开中。
技术领域
本公开一般涉及半导体制造领域,具体涉及一种半导体元胞结构、IGBT元胞结构、半导体结构及IGBT元胞结构的制备方法。
背景技术
新型半导体功率器件,如新型半导体功率器件为IGBT(Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor,绝缘栅双极性晶体管),IGBT具有导通损耗低、输入阻抗高、驱动电路简单、驱动功率小、开启速度快等优点。为了获得更大功率、更高效率的电力控制系统,IGBT一直沿着低导通损耗、低开关损耗的方向在发展。
IGBT经过近四十年的发展,在纵向结构上,IGBT经历了PT—NPT—FS的发展;在表面结构上,IGBT从平面栅发展成沟槽栅结构,极大的降低了IGBT的导通损耗和开关损耗。
浮空P区域的引入极大的降低了Trench(沟槽)IGBT的导通压降,提高了载流子存储效应,在常规TrenchIGBT的基础上极大的改善了器件正向导通压降Vce和关断时间t off之间的矛盾关系。
不过现有浮空P型TrenchIGBT中形成米勒电容的栅极与集电极的接触面占沟槽的大部分面积,而且介质层仅仅为薄薄的栅极氧化层,厚度及其薄,因此现有浮空P型TrenchIGBT的米勒电容很大。在器件开关过程中,在米勒电容的作用下,栅极电流除了栅极驱动的电流 外还增加了位移电流,较大的米勒电容会导致器件栅极中的位移电流很大,栅极电压将受的影响。在器件开通过程中,较大的米勒电容会导致配套使用的续流二极管的反向恢复时将会有较大的电压变化率dv/dt、较高的电流峰值和电磁兼容(EMC)等问题。另外,较大的米勒电容也将会增加器件的开通时间和关断时间,从而器件将会得到较大的开通和关断损耗。

在本公开的实施例中,半导体元胞结构可以为IGBT型半导体元胞结构,也可以为MOS(Metal Oxide Semiconductor)型半导体元胞结构。MOS与IGBT的主要区别为衬底的背面,IGBT的衬底的背面较MOS的衬底的背面多一层P-型衬底。IGBT与MOS的衬底的正面结构一致。
可以理解的是,本公开的实施例中的半导体元胞结构可以为IGBT,也可以为MOS。下面,以半导体元胞结构为IGBT为例进行说明。
目前,现有的半导体元胞结构,例如,IGBT元胞结构,IGBT在在工作过程中,由于米勒电容的影响,降低器件的开关速度,增加开关损耗,严重影响IGBT的工作性能。基于此,本公开提供一种半导体元胞结构、IGBT元胞结构、半导体结构及IGBT元胞结构的制备方法。
如图1所示,本公开的实施例提供一种IGBT元胞结构,包括依次层叠设置的N-型漂移层101、N型终止层116、P型集电极层117以及集电极金属层118;
在N-型漂移层101背向P型集电极层117的一侧且在N-型漂移层101中,IGBT元胞结构包括:两个间隔设置的第一沟槽102、形成于第一沟槽102内壁的沟槽形绝缘氧化层103、位于沟槽形绝缘氧化层103内的多晶硅电极104、位于第一沟槽102内的第二沟槽105、形成 于第二沟槽105内壁的沟槽形栅氧化层106、位于沟槽形栅氧化层106内的多晶硅栅107、位于第一沟槽102之间的P肼区108、两个间隔设置的浮空P区109以及N+发射极层110,N+发射极层110形成于浮空P区109和P肼区108背向P型集电极层117的一侧,P肼区108内设有与N+发射极层110连接的P+区111;
在N-型漂移层101背向P型集电极层117的一侧,IGBT元胞结构还包括:自靠近P型集电极层117至远离P型集电极层117的方向上顺次设置的绝缘介质隔离层112和发射极金属层113,绝缘介质隔离层112覆盖N+发射极层110、沟槽形绝缘氧化层103、多晶硅电极104、沟槽形栅氧化层106和多晶硅栅107,绝缘介质隔离层112具有露出多晶硅电极104和P+区111的开口114,发射极金属层113覆盖绝缘介质隔离层112并填充开口114;其中,
第一沟槽内的沟槽形绝缘氧化层103和多晶硅电极104均与位于该第一沟槽内的第二沟槽邻接,沟槽形栅氧化层106通过多晶硅电极104与沟槽形绝缘氧化层103隔开,浮空P区109的深度不超过第一沟槽102的深度,浮空P区109通过沟槽形绝缘氧化层103与P肼区108隔开,两个第二沟槽105内的栅氧化层106分别与P肼区108相邻接。
该实施例提供的IGBT元胞结构中,第一沟槽为dummytrench(赝沟槽),第二沟槽为栅极沟槽,P肼区位于两个第二沟槽之间(即两个栅极沟槽之间),由于第二沟槽位于第一沟槽内,第二沟槽仅有很小的一部分与N-型漂移层毗邻以形成米勒电容,如第二沟槽与N-型漂移层接触部位的长度为200nm,甚至可以是100nm,使得IGBT元胞结构具有很小的米勒电容,从而达到提高器件的开通效率以及降低器件的开关损耗。
IGBT的集电极与发射极之间等效存在有集电极-发射极电容,即为电容Cce;在发射极与栅极之间等效存在有栅极-发射极电容,即为电容Cge;集电极与栅极之间等效存在有门极-集电极电容,即为电容Cgc,电容Cgc又被称为米勒电容。IGBT的输入电容Cies=Cge+Cgc。该实施例中多晶硅电极为多晶硅发射极,第二沟槽内部的区域为栅极 区域,第二沟槽四周基本与发射极毗邻,因此该实施例提供的IGBT元胞结构具有一个较大的输入电容,能够进一步降低了因为反馈电容导致的位移电流对栅极电压的影响,器件栅极电压不容易受电流变化的影响。
半导体材料为多晶硅、单晶硅、碳化硅、氮化镓或氧化锌等。
进一步地,第一沟槽102的深度为4um-8um,第二沟槽105的深度为2um-5um。第一沟槽较第二沟槽深一些,一方面各个第一沟槽形成有第二沟槽,两个第二沟槽分别与P肼区相邻接,第二沟槽落在第一沟槽内,确保栅极区域与N-漂移区之间仅有很小的一部分接触,使得器件具有较小的米勒电容;另一方面,通过第一沟槽与N-漂移区接触,利用较深的第一沟槽,在第一沟槽的外侧形成浮空P区,第一沟槽和浮空P区能够降低沟槽底部电场,提高器件的反向耐压能力,在器件导通过程中,第一沟槽与浮空P区能够使得器件表面储存大量的少数载流子,降低器件的导通压降。
进一步地,第二沟槽105的宽度比第一沟槽102的宽度小0.6um-1.0um,第一沟槽102的宽度为1.4um-2.2um,第二沟槽105的宽度为0.8um-1.2um,确保第一沟槽能够包围第二沟槽。
进一步地,P肼区108的掺杂浓度为1x10 16cm -3-1x10 19cm -3;和/或,
P+区111的掺杂浓度为1x10 19cm -3-1x10 22cm -3;和/或,
N+发射极层110的掺杂浓度为1x10 19cm -3-1x10 23cm -3
具体地,掺杂浓度满足下列条件至少之一:
P肼区的掺杂浓度为1x10 16cm -3-1x10 19cm -3
P+区的掺杂浓度为1x10 19cm -3-1x10 22cm -3
N+发射极层的掺杂浓度为1x10 19cm -3-1x10 23cm -3
如图2所示,本公开的实施例提供一种半导体结构,包括多个并联的图1所示的IGBT元胞结构,IGBT元胞结构的浮空P区的深度与第一沟槽102的深度相仿,相邻两个IGBT元胞结构的浮空P区109相连形成浮空P区域201。
该实施例提供的半导体结构中浮空P区域201与第一沟槽的深度 相同或接近。在器件处于反向阻断状态时,浮空P区域能够承受主要的电场,使得电场不会集中于第一沟槽底部,提高了器件的耐压能力,器件在应用中更加不易发生过压损坏。
如图3所示,本公开的实施例提供另一种半导体结构,包括多个并联的图1所示的IGBT元胞结构;
在相邻两个IGBT元胞结构之间,N-型漂移层101内还设有至少一个中间沟槽301,中间沟槽301内设有沟槽绝缘氧化层302,沟槽绝缘氧化层302内设有中间多晶硅层303,中间沟槽301与第一沟槽103同层形成,沟槽绝缘氧化层302与沟槽形绝缘氧化层106同层形成,中间多晶硅层303与多晶硅电极104同层形成,绝缘介质隔离层112还覆盖中间沟槽301、沟槽绝缘氧化层302和中间多晶硅层303,绝缘介质隔离层112还具有露出中间多晶硅层303的开孔304,N+发射极金属层113还填充开孔304。
进一步地,在相邻两个IGBT元胞结构之间,N-型漂移层101内还设有至少两个中间沟槽301,两个中间沟槽301之间设有中间P浮空区,中间P浮空区与浮空P区109同层形成;N+发射极层110还与中间P浮空区相连。
在图3示意的半导体结构中,在相邻IGBT元胞结构之间设置至少一个沟槽部,该沟槽部的深度和宽度与第一沟槽一致,在生产过程中该沟槽部与第一沟槽同时实现,不会增加工艺的复杂性。在器件处于反向阻断状态,高密度的深沟槽能够降低沟槽底部电场,提高器件的反向耐压能力,在器件导通过程中,深沟槽与浮空P区能够达到一致的效果,能够使得器件表面储存大量的少数载流子,降低器件的导通压降。在开关过程中,沟槽部内的中间多晶硅电极和第一沟槽内的多晶硅电极均与发射极金属层连接,增加了一个较大的集电极-发射极电容,该电容能够在一定程度上吸收器件开关工作中产生的噪声。
基于上述IGBT元胞结构,相应地,本公开提供了该种IGBT元胞结构的制备方法。
