Embodiment 1

[0029] Such as Figure 10 As shown, this example includes a linear junction terminal structure and a curvature junction terminal structure; the linear junction terminal structure is the same as the active region structure of a lateral high-voltage power semiconductor device, including the drain N +Contact region 1, N-type drift region 2, P-type substrate 3, gate polysilicon 4, gate oxide layer 5, P-well region 6, source N + Contact area 7, source P + Contact region 8; P-well region 6 and N-type drift region 2 are located on the upper layer of P-type substrate 3, wherein P-well region 6 is located in the middle, with N-type drift region 2 on both sides, and P-well region 6 and N-type drift region 2 The drift region 2 is connected; the two sides of the N-type drift region 2 away from the P-well region 6 are the drain N + Contact area 1; drain N + The lateral width of the end of the contact region 1 away from the curvature junction terminal structure is greater than the latera...

Embodiment 2

[0033] Such as Figure 11 As shown, the difference between this example and Example 1 is that the original L of the device at the terminal of the curvature junction is kept Ndriftt In the case of the same length, the increase of L Psub length, becomes L Psub +ΔL, thereby increasing the area of ​​the P-type substrate region. When the substrate doping concentration is low, the depletion region will soon extend to the P-type substrate region. At this time, increasing the area of ​​the P-type substrate region can prevent the P The type substrate region is depleted in advance to ensure the withstand voltage of the device at the curvature junction terminal.

Embodiment 3

[0035] Such as Figure 12 As shown, the difference between this example and Example 1 is that while increasing L Psub length and L Ndrift length, making it L Psub +ΔL 1 and L Ndrift +ΔL 2 , where ΔL 1 with ΔL 2 The sum is equal to ΔL, thereby increasing the area of ​​the P-type substrate region and the N-type drift region at the same time, so that the withstand voltage of the device can be optimized.

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor power devices, in particular to a junction terminal structure of a lateral high-voltage power semiconductor device. The invention reduces the total area of ​​the P-type substrate and the N-type drift region of the device at the terminal of the curvature junction, thereby preventing premature depletion of the device at the P-type substrate region and ensuring the withstand voltage of the device at the terminal of the curvature junction. The beneficial effect of the present invention is that it can significantly reduce the impact of the curvature junction terminal on the withstand voltage of the entire device, so that the electric field of the device in the transition region will not be too large, and the device's withstand voltage can be improved by changing the area of ​​the drift region or the P-type substrate. The voltage is optimized to ensure the withstand voltage of the device. The invention is especially suitable for junction termination structures of lateral high-voltage power semiconductor devices.

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor power devices, in particular to a junction terminal structure of a lateral high-voltage power semiconductor device. Background technique [0002] With the increasing electrification of industry, the requirements for high voltage and high current devices are getting higher and higher. In order to improve the withstand voltage of the device, various junction termination structures have emerged to meet the withstand voltage requirements of the device. [0003] The development of high-voltage power integrated circuits is inseparable from the integration of lateral high-voltage power semiconductor devices. Lateral high-voltage power semiconductor devices are usually closed structures, including circular, racetrack and interdigitated structures.
