Abstract

The invention provides a novel U-shaped groove IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) and a manufacturing method thereof. The IGBT comprises a semiconductor substrate and a cell region, wherein the cell region comprises a first base region positioned in the surface of the semiconductor substrate, a second base region, a first source region positioned in the first base region, a second source region positioned in the second base region, and a U-shaped groove positioned between the first base region and the second base region; the bottom of the U-shaped groove is positioned in the semiconductor substrate; an inner surface of the U-shaped groove is covered with an oxide layer; the coverage area of the oxide layer extends from the inner surface of the U-shaped groove to a part of the first source region and a part of the second source region; the oxide layer is covered with a polycrystalline silicon layer; and the U-shaped groove is filled with the polycrystalline silicon layer. Through adoption of the IGBT structure, more current carriers can be introduced. Moreover, a large quantity of unbalanced current carriers are only introduced in a switch-on state, so that the breakdown voltage of the IGBT is not lowered, and a compromise relationship between the break-over current density and the breakdown voltage of the IGBT can be improved remarkably.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor devices, in particular to a novel U-shaped slot IGBT and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) is a bipolar device controlled by an insulated gate. The higher the non-equilibrium carrier concentration in the body, the stronger the conductance modulation effect and the higher the current density. Taking the N-type IGBT whose substrate is N-type as an example, its holes are injected by the anode emitter junction, and electrons are injected by the cathode channel. Affected by the channel resistance, the electron injection capability on the cathode side is limited. The JFET region between the two P base regions of the ordinary IGBT cell structure limits the expansion of the electronic current path, and the JFET resistance generated by it will also reduce the cathode carrier concentration and reduce the IGBT on-current density. In order to ...
