Description

IEGT结构及其制作方法IEGT structure and its fabrication method 技术领域technical field
本发明涉及功率半导体器件技术领域,特别涉及一种IEGT结构及其制作方法。The invention relates to the technical field of power semiconductor devices, in particular to an IEGT structure and a manufacturing method thereof.
背景技术Background technique
IGBT(Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor,绝缘栅双极型晶体管)器件结合了MOS(Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor,金属-氧化物半导体场效应晶体管)的电压控制和BJT(Bipolar Junction Transistor,双极结型晶体管)的电导调制电流的特性,具有输入阻抗高、开关损耗小、速度快、电压驱动功率小等特点,广泛地应用于电力输变送、高速列车牵引、工业驱动、清洁能源等诸多领域。为了进一步降低沟槽栅IGBT的导通损耗,业界提出了电子注入增强栅晶体管(Injection Enhanced Gate Transistor,IEGT)。但是传统沟槽栅IGBT和IEGT都存在一个问题,沟槽栅极一般往下刻蚀深度较大,与集电极接触面积较多,势必会带来米勒电容变大的问题,米勒电容增大则会引起IGBT器件开关损耗的增大。IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor, Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) device combines the voltage control of MOS (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor, Metal-Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor) and BJT (Bipolar Junction Transistor, bipolar Junction transistor) has the characteristics of conductance modulation current, has the characteristics of high input impedance, small switching loss, fast speed, and low voltage drive power, and is widely used in power transmission and transmission, high-speed train traction, industrial drive, clean energy, etc. field. In order to further reduce the conduction loss of the trench gate IGBT, the industry has proposed an electron injection enhanced gate transistor (Injection Enhanced Gate Transistor, IEGT). However, there is a problem in both the traditional trench gate IGBT and IEGT. The trench gate generally has a larger etching depth and a larger contact area with the collector, which will inevitably lead to the problem of increased Miller capacitance. A large value will cause an increase in the switching loss of the IGBT device.
图1为常规的沟槽栅IGBT结构的示意图。如图1所示,现有的N型IGBT结构包括衬底(N+型)10,在衬底10上设有漂移层(为N-型外延层,也可以称为N-漂移层)11,外延层11上设有基区(为P型,又称为体区)12,在基区12的两侧设有发射区(为N+型,也称为源区)14,在基区12中设有栅极沟槽,栅极沟槽的内表面上形成有栅氧层并填充有栅极13,在衬底10的正面设有金属发射极15,其通过发射极接触插塞16与发射区14电性连接,在衬底10的背面设有集电区(P+型)17,集电区17的底面上可以形成有与其欧姆接触的金属集电极。FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a conventional trench gate IGBT structure. As shown in FIG. 1, the existing N-type IGBT structure includes a substrate (N+ type) 10, on which a drift layer (N-type epitaxial layer, also referred to as an N-drift layer) 11 is provided, The epitaxial layer 11 is provided with a base region (for P type, also called body region) 12, and on both sides of base region 12 is provided with emitter region (for N+ type, also called source region) 14, in base region 12 A gate trench is provided, a gate oxide layer is formed on the inner surface of the gate trench and filled with a gate 13, and a metal emitter 15 is provided on the front surface of the substrate 10, which is connected to the emitter via an emitter contact plug 16. The region 14 is electrically connected, and a collector region (P+ type) 17 is provided on the back of the substrate 10, and a metal collector electrode in ohmic contact with the collector region 17 may be formed on the bottom surface.
为了进一步降低沟槽栅IGBT的导通损耗,业界提出了电子注入增强栅晶体管(Injection Enhanced Gate Transistor,IEGT),具体结构如图2所示,与图1中传统沟槽栅IGBT相比,在一个元胞中,只有沟槽的一侧是有N+有源区的,所以只有一侧有沟道可以通过电子,而在沟槽另一侧N-区中,没有发射极抽 取空穴,所以在这一侧的N型区域可以储存空穴,漂移层内增加的空穴与电子进一步发生电导调制效应,达到减小IGBT导通压降的目的。In order to further reduce the conduction loss of the trench gate IGBT, the industry has proposed an electron injection enhanced gate transistor (Injection Enhanced Gate Transistor, IEGT), the specific structure is shown in Figure 2, compared with the traditional trench gate IGBT in Figure 1, in In a cell, only one side of the trench has an N+ active region, so only one side of the trench can pass electrons, and in the N- region on the other side of the trench, there is no emitter to extract holes, so The N-type region on this side can store holes, and the increased holes and electrons in the drift layer further have a conductance modulation effect, achieving the purpose of reducing the IGBT turn-on voltage drop.
但是发明人研究发现,传统沟槽栅IGBT和IEGT都存在一个问题,沟槽栅极一般向下刻蚀深度较大,与集电极接触面积较多,这就会带来米勒电容变大的问题,米勒电容增大则会引起IGBT器件开关损耗的增大。However, the inventors found that there is a problem in both the traditional trench gate IGBT and IEGT. The trench gate generally has a large downward etching depth and a large contact area with the collector, which will lead to increased Miller capacitance. The problem is that the increase of Miller capacitance will cause the increase of switching loss of IGBT device.

IEGT米勒电容大,会引起开关损耗增大,针对此问题,通常选择在图2所示的结构中,与常规IEGT相比,加厚栅氧化层厚度从而达到降低米勒电容的目的。增加栅氧厚度虽然能降低米勒电容,但是会引起器件阈值电压的上升和开启损耗的上升。另外一种方法则是将沟槽做小,进一步总体来达到降低米勒电容的目的。然而,沟槽做小、总面积降低的方法会给制备工艺带来挑战,目前沟槽宽度已经比较小,进一步缩小沟槽宽度会引起回填多晶硅(Poly)时异常率的提升,从而影响产品的良率。The large Miller capacitance of IEGT will cause increased switching loss. To solve this problem, the structure shown in Figure 2 is usually selected. Compared with the conventional IEGT, the thickness of the gate oxide layer is thickened to reduce the Miller capacitance. Although increasing the thickness of the gate oxide can reduce the Miller capacitance, it will cause the rise of the threshold voltage of the device and the rise of the turn-on loss. Another method is to make the groove smaller, and further reduce the Miller capacitance as a whole. However, the method of making the trench smaller and reducing the total area will bring challenges to the manufacturing process. At present, the trench width is already relatively small, and further reducing the trench width will cause an increase in the abnormal rate when backfilling polysilicon (Poly), thus affecting product quality. yield.
发明人进一步研究发现,在低压MOS领域,主流的结构是分离栅结构,例如,一种屏蔽栅功率MOS的器件包括主结构及其可变结构,其沟槽分为上下两个极,下面的沟槽不接电极,浮空布置,这样也能减少栅极(Gate)与集电极的接触面积,从而达到降低弥勒电容的作用。然而,这种可变结构上部分为左右两个电极,因为在MOS器件应用时,必须是二者都要连接栅极,没办法连接其他电极,不然会影响MOS器件的主要功能。此外,低压SGT中 的分离栅结构,下面的电极一般是浮空布置或者连接发射极,上面的电极为栅极,其将上面栅极分成两个的小的栅极,由于减小了栅极与集电极的接触面积,可以实现降低米勒电容的目的,但是栅极的面积依然比较大,无法进一步降低米勒电容。The inventor further researched and found that in the field of low-voltage MOS, the mainstream structure is a split gate structure. For example, a shielded gate power MOS device includes a main structure and its variable structure, and its trench is divided into upper and lower poles. The groove is not connected to the electrode, and is arranged in a floating position, which can also reduce the contact area between the gate (Gate) and the collector, thereby achieving the effect of reducing the Maitreya capacitance. However, the upper part of this variable structure is divided into left and right electrodes, because in the application of MOS devices, both of them must be connected to the gate, and there is no way to connect other electrodes, otherwise the main function of the MOS device will be affected. In addition, in the split-gate structure in low-voltage SGT, the lower electrode is generally floating or connected to the emitter, and the upper electrode is the gate, which divides the upper gate into two small gates. The contact area with the collector can achieve the purpose of reducing the Miller capacitance, but the area of the gate is still relatively large, which cannot further reduce the Miller capacitance.
基于此,本发明提供的一种IEGT结构及其制作方法,通过在所述第一沟槽内形成至少一个第一发射极和栅极,减小了第一沟槽内的栅极与集电极的接触面积,使得IEGT结构的米勒电容大幅降低。第一沟槽内的至少一个第一发射极与第二发射极连接,一方面起到降低米勒电容减小了开关损耗,另一方面,第一发射极可以作为场板,在不影响IEGT开启特性和关断特性,可以加速沟槽之间的区域耗尽,提升产品的耐压可靠性。Based on this, the present invention provides an IEGT structure and its fabrication method. By forming at least one first emitter and gate in the first trench, the gate and collector in the first trench are reduced. The small contact area makes the Miller capacitance of the IEGT structure greatly reduced. At least one first emitter in the first trench is connected to the second emitter. On the one hand, it can reduce the Miller capacitance and reduce the switching loss. On the other hand, the first emitter can be used as a field plate without affecting the IEGT. The turn-on and turn-off characteristics can accelerate the depletion of the area between the trenches and improve the withstand voltage reliability of the product.
