Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of MOS semiconductor technology, and particularly to an irradiated-reinforced SiC superjunction MOS structure and a preparation process thereof. Background Art
[0002] In the evolution process of modern power semiconductor devices, silicon carbide (SiC), with its excellent physical properties such as a wide bandgap, high breakdown electric field strength, high saturated electron drift velocity, and excellent thermal conductivity, has become an ideal material for constructing high-performance power devices. The superjunction metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) based on SiC, that is, the SiC superjunction MOS structure, combines the advantages of the superjunction structure in optimizing the electric field distribution, enhancing the breakdown voltage capability, and reducing the on-resistance, as well as the high-temperature and high-frequency characteristics of the SiC material itself, and shows great application potential in many frontier fields; In the prior art (Publication No.: CN210805778U), a SiC-MOS device structure is disclosed, which includes a metal drain, a silicon carbide N+ substrate, and a silicon carbide N- epitaxial layer arranged in sequence from bottom to top.

[0014] To make the technical solutions of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0015] As Figures 1-5 shown, according to one aspect of the present invention, a preparation process for an irradiation-hardened SiC superjunction MOS structure is provided, including: Step 1: Select an N-type SiC substrate as the N substrate layer 4. Check parameters such as the flatness and crystal orientation of the substrate surface to ensure compliance with process requirements. Place the N substrate layer 4 successively into acetone and ethanol solutions, and perform ultrasonic cleaning using an ultrasonic cleaner to remove organic impurities on the surface. Then, immerse the N substrate layer 4 in a dilute hydrofluoric acid solution to remove the surface oxide layer. Subsequently, rinse it thoroughly with deionized water, and finally dry it with nitrogen or spin-dry it with a spin dryer; this can remove organic impurities, oxide layers, and other contaminants on the surface of the N substrate layer 4, avoid these impurities from affecting the arrangement and combination of atoms during subsequent epitaxial growth, ensure that the N substrate layer 4 has good lattice matching and interface characteristics, thereby improving the quality of the subsequently grown semiconductor epitaxial layer, and laying a foundation for the preparation of a high-performance SiC superjunction MOS structure.
[0016] Step 2: Use chemical vapor deposition technology to grow an N drift layer 5 on the cleaned N substrate layer 4. The purpose is to grow an N drift layer 4 with specific thickness, doping concentration, and crystal quality on the N substrate layer 4, which serves as a key component of the MOS structure.
[0017] Step 3: Through photolithography technology, perform photoresist coating, exposure, and development in the middle area of the N drift layer 5 to form a rectangular mask pattern for the lightly doped N layer 9. Using ion implantation technology, inject nitrogen ions into the rectangular mask pattern area to form the lightly doped N layer 9. After completing the implantation of the lightly doped N layer 9, remove the photoresist. Then, use photolithography technology again to form a concave mask pattern at the bottom area of the lightly doped N layer 9, and implant nitrogen ions into the concave mask pattern area to form the heavily doped N layer 11. After the implantation is completed, place it in an annealing furnace to repair lattice damage; by adjusting the doping concentration in the local area, the electrical properties of this area are changed, further optimizing the electric field distribution inside the device. The settings of the lightly doped N layer 9 and the heavily doped N layer 11 can effectively regulate the concentration and distribution of carriers, reduce the on-resistance, and at the same time enhance the stability of the device in an irradiation environment, providing a basis for the subsequent formation of other special structures and improving the overall performance of the device.
[0018] Step 4: Use photolithography technology to form trapezoidal mask patterns for the laterally symmetric P- layers 10 in the left and right areas of the N drift layer 5 respectively. Then, use ion implantation technology to inject boron ions into the area covered by the trapezoidal mask to form laterally symmetric P- layers 10 with a trapezoidal cross-sectional profile. After the injection, perform annealing treatment; through the interaction between the laterally symmetric P- layers 10 and the N drift layer 5, the electric field distribution can be made more uniform, avoiding the occurrence of local electric field concentration. A uniform electric field distribution helps to improve the breakdown voltage ability of the device, enabling the device to operate stably in a high-voltage environment and reducing the breakdown risk caused by uneven electric fields.
[0019] Step Five: Inside the heavily doped N layer 11, form an arc mask pattern of the arc-shaped P-layer 12 through photolithography technology. Inject boron ions using ion implantation technology to form the arc-shaped P-layer 12. After injection, perform annealing treatment. The arc-shaped P-layer 12 can utilize its own structure and doping characteristics to quickly collect and neutralize some of the carriers generated by irradiation, reduce the interference of excess carriers on the core area of the device, thereby effectively reducing the damage degree of irradiation to the device and enhancing the radiation resistance of the device.
[0020] Step Six: In the regions on both sides of the arc-shaped P-layer 12 inside the heavily doped N layer 11, inject nitrogen ions using photolithography and ion implantation technologies to form lightly doped N-type half-layers 13. After injection, perform annealing treatment. Forming lightly doped N-type half-layers 13 in specific regions of the heavily doped N layer 11 changes the charge distribution in this region, further optimizes the internal electric field of the device, thereby further avoiding premature breakdown of the device caused by overly concentrated electric fields, improving the breakdown voltage performance of the device, and enhancing its reliability in high-voltage environments.
[0021] Step Seven: Define the regions of the P+ layer 6, N-well layer 7, and P-well layer 8 respectively through photolithography technology. For the P+ layer 6, inject boron ions. For the N-well layer 7, inject nitrogen ions. For the P-well layer 8, inject boron ions. After injection, perform annealing treatment to activate impurities and repair lattice damage. Then, the core conductive channel and carrier injection region of the MOS device can be constructed. The P+ layer 6 provides a low-resistance carrier injection path. The N-well layer 7 and the P-well layer 8 cooperate with each other to form a conductive channel that can be regulated by the gate voltage, realizing the control of the device current.
[0022] Step Eight: Deposit and pattern the metal layer in sequence through photolithography or sputtering processes to form ohmic contacts and Schottky contacts for the drain 1, source 2, and gate 3.
[0023] Example 1 As Figure 1 shown, a radiation-hardened SiC superjunction MOS structure is provided, which is composed of a plurality of juxtaposed MOS cells. A single MOS cell includes a drain 1, a semiconductor epitaxial layer, a source 2, and a gate 3. The semiconductor epitaxial layer includes an N substrate layer 4, an N drift layer 5, a P+ layer 6, an N-well layer 7, and a P-well layer 8. A lightly doped N layer 9 is provided in the middle of the N drift layer 5 of a single MOS cell. On the left and right sides of the N drift layer 5 inside a single MOS cell, side-symmetric P-layers 10 are provided. The cross-sectional profiles of the two side-symmetric P-layers 10 are both trapezoidal, and the bottom ends of the two side-symmetric P-layers 10 are both in contact with the upper surface of the N substrate layer 4. In a single MOS cell, the drain 1 serves as the current outflow terminal and is connected to the N substrate layer 4, responsible for exporting the current within the device. The source 2 and the gate 3 are used to control the conduction and cutoff of the current. The semiconductor epitaxial layer is the core functional area of the device. The N substrate layer 4 provides a stable substrate support and a low-resistance current path. The N drift layer 5 is the main voltage-bearing area and undertakes the role of withstanding high voltage. The lightly doped N layer 9 set in the middle changes the doping characteristics of this area, making the resistance distribution of the N drift layer 5 more reasonable. Side-symmetric P-layers 10 are provided on both sides of the N drift layer 5, and its cross-section is trapezoidal. This shape design enables the combination area of the side-symmetric P-layer 10 and the N drift layer 5 to better regulate the electric field distribution. The bottom end of the side-symmetric P-layer 10 contacts the N substrate layer 4, forming a charge compensation structure from the N substrate layer 4 to the N drift layer 5. In addition, the P+ layer 6, the N well layer 7, and the P well layer 8 cooperate with each other to form a conductive channel under the action of the gate voltage, realizing precise control of the current; That is, the holes in the side-symmetric P-layer 10 can interact with the electrons in the N drift layer 5, accelerating the carrier recombination, reducing the influence of excess carriers on the device performance, effectively reducing the performance degradation caused by irradiation, and improving the reliability and stability of the device in the irradiation environment.
[0024] Example 2 As Figure 2 shown, a heavily doped N layer 11 is formed at the bottom end of the lightly doped N layer 9 by ion implantation. The cross-sectional profiles of the heavily doped N layer 11 are all concave-shaped, and the bottom end of the heavily doped N layer 11 contacts the upper surface of the N substrate layer 4; A heavily doped N layer 11 with a concave cross-sectional profile is formed at the bottom end of the lightly doped N layer 9. The concave design makes the heavily doped N layer 11 present a structure feature with a middle depression and two convex sides in the transverse direction. Its bottom end maintains complete contact with the upper surface of the N substrate layer 4, forming a continuous conductive channel. Thus, it not only retains the high conductivity advantage of the heavily doped region but also specially regulates the electric field distribution through the concave profile, and cooperates with the surrounding side-symmetric P-layers 10 and other structures to construct a complex and orderly charge distribution system, and then can effectively regulate the concentration and distribution of carriers, reduce the on-resistance, and enhance the stability of the device in the irradiation environment.
[0025] Example 3 As Figure 3 shown, an arc-shaped P-layer 12 is formed inside the heavily doped N layer 11 by ion implantation. The bottom end of the arc-shaped P-layer 12 contacts the upper surface of the N substrate layer 4; An ion implantation process is used to implant boron ions at a specific energy and dose to form an arc-shaped P-layer 12 inside the heavily doped N layer 11. The bottom of the arc-shaped P-layer 12 is tightly attached to the upper surface of the N substrate layer 4. Its arc-shaped profile design cooperates with the heavily doped N layer 11 and other structures, changing the originally uniform charge distribution in the area to form an arc-shaped P-layer 12 with a certain thickness and doping concentration. This layer forms a PN junction with the heavily doped N layer 11, and together with the surrounding area, constructs a complex and ordered semiconductor structure system. The arc-shaped P-layer 12 can quickly collect and neutralize some of the carriers generated by radiation due to its doping characteristics and arc-shaped structure. When high-energy particles are incident, the holes in the arc-shaped P-layer 12 can combine with the electrons in the heavily doped N layer 11, reducing the interference of excess carriers on the core area of the device, further reducing the degree of damage to the device caused by radiation, and significantly improving the device's radiation resistance.
[0026] Example 4 like Figure 4 As shown, lightly doped N-type half layers 13 are formed inside the heavily doped N layer 11 and on both sides of the arc-shaped P-layer 12 by ion implantation. The cross-sectional profiles of the lightly doped N-type half layers 13 are all rectangular, and the bottom ends of the lightly doped N-type half layers 13 are in contact with the upper surface of the N substrate layer 4; After the heavily doped N layer 11 and the curved P-layer 12 have been formed, photolithography technology is used to precisely position the mask. A low dose of nitrogen ions is implanted into the area within the heavily doped N layer 11 and outside the curved P-layer 12, forming a lightly doped N-type half-layer 13 with a rectangular cross-section. The bottom of the lightly doped N-type half-layer 13 is in close contact with the upper surface of the N substrate layer 4. During the implantation process, parameters such as the energy and dose of the nitrogen ions are strictly controlled to ensure that the lightly doped N-type half-layer 13 has an appropriate doping concentration and depth. This ensures that the lightly doped N-type half-layer 13 cooperates with the heavily doped N layer 11 and the curved P-layer 12 in terms of electrical properties and spatial structure, jointly constructing a complex and orderly semiconductor internal structure system. This further changes the charge distribution state in the heavily doped N layer 11 region, making the electric field distribution in this region more refined and reasonable. This effectively mitigates the electric field mutation caused by the heavy doping and curved P-layer 12, avoids excessive local electric field concentration, further improves the overall voltage withstand capability of the device, and makes the device more stable and reliable when operating in a high-voltage environment.
[0027] Example 5 like Figure 5 As shown, a semicircular lightly doped N layer 14 is formed on both sides of the heavily doped N layer 11 by ion implantation; Nitrogen ion implantation is performed through a semicircular mask to form a semicircular side lightly doped N layer 14, whose geometric structure matches the electric field distribution and effectively neutralizes the excess electrons in the heavily doped N layer 11; Thus, the stability of the internal structure of the device is enhanced. Its semi-circular design can better adapt to internal stress changes, reduce the stress concentration problem caused by structural mismatch, lower the probability of structural defects occurring during the manufacturing and use of the device, and further ensure the stable performance of the device.

It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
