Abstract

The invention discloses a silicon carbide Trench MOS device and manufacturing method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of power semiconductors. A convex polycrystalline silicon region is additionally arranged inside an epitaxial layer, and two independent trench gates are arranged in a groove of the convex polycrystalline silicon region, so that a polycrystalline silicon layer and the epitaxial layer form a Si / SiC heterojunction. Compared with direct utilization of a parasitic silicon carbide diode of a silicon carbide Trench MOS, a junction voltage drop during application of the device diode is remarkably reduced, and a relatively large heterojunction area improves a device conduction characteristic; based on a charge shielding effect of the convex polycrystalline silicon, gate-drain capacitance and a ratio of gate-drain capacitance and gate-source capacitance are reduced, thereby remarkably improving performance and reliability of the device; and the device adopts single-pole electric conduction, thus has relatively good reverse recovery performance and has the advantages of low reverse electric leakage, high breakdown voltage and good device temperature stability performance of a traditional Trench MOS device, and therefore the silicon carbide Trench MOS device provided by the invention has broad prospects in circuits such as an inverter circuit and a chopper circuit.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of power semiconductors, and in particular relates to a silicon carbide Trench MOS device and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Today, when the global greenhouse effect is becoming more serious and the call for energy conservation and emission reduction is increasing, the problem of electric energy conversion in household appliances, electric vehicles, industrial production, and locomotive traction is particularly important. In order to improve the efficiency of electric energy use, the field of power electronics It is imminent for scientific researchers to optimize and improve the power system. [0003] Power devices are at the heart of modern power systems. Since the performance of traditional silicon-based power devices is already very close to the limit of silicon materials, it is difficult to greatly improve their performance. In order to meet the application requirements o...
