[0074] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0075] As mentioned in the background art, in order to solve the problem of high Gummel lateral parasitic NPN transistor 100 in BJT structure semiconductor devices, a highly doped wide P-type ring is provided to increase the base current, but this method requires occupying additional device area.
[0076] Therefore, how to solve the high Gummel problem of the lateral parasitic NPN structure in the semiconductor device with BJT structure while keeping the device area unchanged is a question worth considering.
[0077] The study found that by adding an embedded N-type doped region in the P-type well and shorting both to the base metal connection, a new lateral parasitic NPN transistor 200 can be formed between the device emitter E and the base B, thereby increasing the total current of the base B of the original lateral parasitic NPN transistor 100 and reducing Gummel. Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 is a schematic cross-sectional structure diagram of a semiconductor device with a BJT structure in one embodiment, Figure 2 The NPN transistor 200 is another lateral parasitic NPN structure newly added in the device.
[0078] Therefore, by adding an embedded N-type doped region in the P-type well, a new lateral parasitic NPN structure is constructed between the emitter E and the base B, which can greatly improve the breakdown voltage between the collector C and the emitter E.
[0079] However, this method brings benefits as well as great drawbacks. This method will reduce the breakdown voltage between the emitter E and the base B, roughly from a maximum of 80V to 30V; at the same time, it will also reduce the breakdown voltage between the collector C and the base B, roughly from a maximum of 100V to 50V, resulting in an imbalance in the overall performance of the device.
[0080] Therefore, in order to solve the high Gummel problem of the lateral parasitic NPN structure in the semiconductor device with BJT structure while keeping the device area unchanged and the overall performance of the device balanced and stable, the present invention provides a semiconductor device based on BJT structure and a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device, which can reduce the β gain of the parasitic transistor in the device, increase the breakdown voltage between the collector C and the emitter E, and keep the breakdown voltage between the emitter E and the base B, and the breakdown voltage between the collector C and the base B unchanged as much as possible, thereby improving the circuit performance.
[0081] The semiconductor device of the present invention comprises a semiconductor body, a first trench, a first drift region, a first well region, a second well region and a third well region.
[0082] The semiconductor body includes a substrate having a first doping type, a buried layer having a second doping type disposed on the substrate, and an epitaxial layer having the first doping type disposed on the buried layer. The first doping type may be P-type, and the second doping type may be N-type. Alternatively, the first doping type is N-type, and the second doping type is P-type.
[0083] The first trench extends from the top surface of the epitaxial layer to the buried layer. A first conductive material having a second doping type is disposed in the first trench. The first conductive material electrically connects the buried layer to the top surface of the epitaxial layer. Since the first conductive material is connected to the buried layer, the first conductive material can be used as a collector C of the semiconductor device. The first trench is arranged in an annular shape, and the first trench is the device region.
[0084] The first drift region is arranged in the epitaxial layer and is located within the range surrounded by the first trench. A separation space is formed between the first drift region and the first trench. The first drift region has a second doping type. The first drift region can be used as an emitter E of the semiconductor device.
[0085] The first well region is arranged in the epitaxial layer and is located in the interval space between the first trench and the first drift region. The first well region has a first doping type, a second doping type or a non-doping type, and the first well region is also arranged in a ring shape.
[0086] The second well region is arranged in the epitaxial layer and is located below the first well region. The second well region is arranged adjacent to the first well region and has a second doping type. The second well region is also arranged in an annular shape. The depth of the second well region is less than the depth of the first well region.
[0087] The third well region is arranged in the epitaxial layer, and the third well region includes a first third sub-well region inserted between the first well region and the first trench, and a second third sub-well region inserted between the first well region and the first drift region, and the first third sub-well region and the second third sub-well region are respectively arranged adjacent to the first well region. The third well region is also arranged in a ring shape. The third well region has a first doping type. The third well region can be used as a base B of the semiconductor device. The depth of the third well region is less than the sum of the depths of the first well region and the second well region, and the depth of the third well region is equal to the depth of the first well region.
[0088] When the first well region has the second doping type, the doping concentration of the second well region is greater than the doping concentration of the first well region; when the first well region has the first doping type, the doping concentration of the third well region is greater than the doping concentration of the first well region.
[0089] In the above technical solution, the first well region, the second well region and the third well region can be formed in the following manner. Specifically, the first well region has a first region, the second well region has a second region, the third well region has a third region, and the sum of the third region and the first region is the first doping region. First, by performing ion implantation of the first doping type in the first region and the third region (the first doping region), the third well region is formed in the third region, and the first region has the first doping type; then, by performing ion implantation of the second doping type in the first region and the second region, the first region with the first doping type is counter-doped, and the first well region is formed in the first region, and at the same time, the second well region is formed in the second region. Alternatively, by performing ion implantation of the second doping type in the first region and the second region, the second well region is formed in the second region, and the first region has the second doping type; then, by performing ion implantation of the first doping type in the first region and the third region (the first doping region), the first region with the second doping type is counter-doped, and the first well region is formed in the first region, and at the same time, the third well region is formed in the third region.
[0090] It can be understood that the above technical solution is based on the existing MTI / DTI (mid trench isolation / deep trench isolation) basic process, first forming a first doping region of the first doping type, and then doping the second doping type in the region, the doping of the second doping type partially overlaps with the original first doping type region in the lateral direction, and the doping depth of the second doping type in the prior art is deeper than that of the first doping type, so there is still a partial region with the second doping type at the bottom of the base - the second well region 42, but the upper part of the base will be counter-doped by the first doping type, thereby forming the first well region 41.
[0091] The doping type of the first region is balanced by controlling the ion implantation dose of the first doping type and the ion implantation dose of the second doping type, so that the first well region presents a weakly doped second doping type or a weakly doped first doping type or a non-doped type.
[0092] It is understandable that the methods of forming the first trench in the semiconductor body and performing ion implantation on the semiconductor body are both existing processes, and the present invention will not describe them in detail.
[0093] In the above technical solution, there is no specific requirement for the doping type of the first well region. It is only required that the second well region presents a doping type different from that of the third well region, and the second well region slightly protrudes from the lower surface of the third well region (the side surface away from the top surface of the epitaxial layer).
[0094] The second well region is set to form a new lateral parasitic NPN (based on the first doping type being P type and the second doping type being N type) or PNP (based on the first doping type being N type and the second doping type being P type) in the semiconductor device. The effect of the newly generated lateral parasitic NPN or PNP is similar to Figure 2 Like the LNPN transistor 200 shown in the figure, current is provided to the base region of the original lateral parasitic transistor, thereby reducing the β gain of the original lateral parasitic transistor in the device and increasing the breakdown voltage between the collector C and the emitter E. At the same time, since the second well region is not formed by completely penetrating the third well region, the current provided to the base region of the original lateral parasitic transistor is relatively small, and while reducing the β gain, it will not have a significant adverse effect on the breakdown voltage between the emitter E and the base B, and the breakdown voltage between the collector C and the base B of the semiconductor device.
[0095] In a preferred embodiment, the semiconductor device may further include a first isolation structure. The first isolation structure is disposed between the first trench and the third well region. The first isolation structure extends from the top surface of the epitaxial layer into the buried layer. The width of the first isolation structure ranges from 0.5 μm to 0.7 μm, and the depth ranges from 13 μm to 18 μm. The first isolation structure is formed by sidewall thermal oxidation and / or oxide deposition.
[0096] The semiconductor device also includes a second isolation structure. The second isolation structure is arranged between the third well region and the first drift region. The second isolation structure extends from the top surface of the epitaxial layer into the epitaxial layer and has a preset distance from the buried layer. The width of the second isolation structure ranges from 0.35 μm to 0.5 μm, and the depth ranges from 0.4 μm to 13 μm. The second isolation structure is formed by sidewall thermal oxidation and / or oxide deposition.
[0097] In the above technical solution, the provision of the first isolation structure can improve the breakdown voltage between the collector C and the base B. The provision of the second isolation structure can improve the breakdown voltage between the emitter E and the base B.
[0098] In another preferred embodiment, the first well region includes a plurality of first well region units arranged at intervals, and the plurality of first well region units are arranged in a ring. The second well region includes a plurality of second well region units arranged at intervals, and the plurality of second well region units are arranged in a ring. The plurality of first well region units are arranged one-to-one with the plurality of second well region units. The third well region also includes a third third sub-well region unit inserted between adjacent first well region units and between adjacent second well region units, and the third third sub-well region unit is adjacent to the first third sub-well region and the second third sub-well region, respectively. The third third sub-well region unit is adjacent to the adjacent first well region unit and the second well region unit, respectively.
[0099] By changing the area occupied by the second well region in the device region, the influence on the breakdown voltage between the emitter E and the base B and the breakdown voltage between the collector C and the base B can be further reduced.
[0100] In the above-mentioned embodiment, the semiconductor device may also include a first isolation structure and / or a second isolation structure. The first isolation structure is arranged between the first trench and the third well region. The second isolation structure is arranged between the third well region and the first drift region.
[0101] In another preferred embodiment, the second and third sub-well regions include a plurality of second and third sub-well region units disposed at intervals, the plurality of second and third sub-well region units are arranged in a ring shape, and adjacent second and third sub-well region units are separated by an epitaxial layer.
[0102] In addition, the present invention further provides a semiconductor device, including a semiconductor body, a first trench, a first drift region, a fourth well region and a third well region.
[0103] The semiconductor body includes a substrate having a first doping type, a buried layer having a second doping type disposed on the substrate, and an epitaxial layer having the first doping type disposed on the buried layer. The first doping type may be P-type, and the second doping type may be N-type. Alternatively, the first doping type is N-type, and the second doping type is P-type.
[0104] The first trench extends from the top surface of the epitaxial layer to the buried layer. A first conductive material having a second doping type is disposed in the first trench. The first conductive material electrically connects the buried layer to the top surface of the epitaxial layer. Since the first conductive material is connected to the buried layer, the first conductive material can be used as a collector C of the semiconductor device. The first trench is arranged in an annular shape, and the first trench is the device region.
[0105] The first drift region is arranged in the epitaxial layer and is located within the range surrounded by the first trench. A separation space is formed between the first drift region and the first trench. The first drift region has a second doping type; the first drift region can be used as an emitter E of the semiconductor device.
[0106] The fourth well region is arranged in the epitaxial layer and between the first trench and the first drift region. The fourth well region has the second doping type and includes a plurality of fourth well region units arranged at intervals. The plurality of fourth well region units are arranged in a ring shape.
[0107] The third well region is arranged in the epitaxial layer, and the third well region includes a first third sub-well region inserted between the fourth well region and the first trench, a second third sub-well region inserted between the fourth well region and the first drift region, and a third third sub-well region unit inserted between adjacent fourth well region units, and the third third sub-well region unit is adjacent to the first third sub-well region and the second third sub-well region respectively. The depth of the third well region is less than the depth of the fourth well region. The third well region has a first doping type.
[0108] In the above technical solution, the breakdown voltage between the emitter E and the base B of the semiconductor device and the breakdown voltage between the collector C and the base B are kept unchanged by setting the intervals of the fourth well region units.
[0109] In a preferred embodiment, the semiconductor device may further include a first isolation structure, which is disposed between the first trench and the third well region.
