Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of preparation of shield gate trench power devices, in particular to a shield gate trench power device and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] The shield gate trench power device refers to a shield gate trench (SGT) power metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) device. Due to the presence of the shield gate, the device has a charge coupling effect capability, so that the on-resistance and breakdown voltage of the device reach a corresponding balance, and the device has excellent switching characteristics and on characteristics, which can improve the use efficiency of the system in which the device is used. The shield gate trench power device is widely used as a switching device in power management, driving, household appliances and other fields.
[0003] At present, the shield gate trench MOSFET device cell structure in the prior art has two structures, an up-down structure and a left-right structure. In the up-down structure, the shield gate polysilicon in the trench is located below and is used to connect the source electrode; the polysilicon gate in the trench is located above and is used to connect the gate electrode. In the left-right structure, the shield gate polysilicon in the trench is located in the middle and is used to connect the source electrode; the polysilicon gate in the trench is located on both sides and is used to connect the gate electrode.
[0004] In the up-down structure of the existing N-type shield gate trench power device, the source polysilicon in the shield gate and the gate polysilicon are isolated by an insulating medium layer, which is generally an inter-gate oxide layer medium IPO. There are generally two schemes for generating the inter-gate oxide medium layer IPO. The first scheme is to generate the source shield gate polysilicon, then thermally oxidize the source shield gate polysilicon to generate a silicon dioxide medium, and then etch to form an inter-gate oxide layer medium IPO with a certain thickness. This scheme has complicated steps and high process requirements. The second scheme is to form the source shield gate polysilicon, then deposit and etch a process to form an inter-gate oxide layer medium IPO with a certain thickness on the top of the source shield gate polysilicon. This method has a simple process, but due to the instability of the etching process, the thickness of the inter-gate oxide layer medium IPO cannot be consistent. If the medium layer is too thin, the source shield gate polysilicon and the gate polysilicon can be broken down, and if the medium layer is too thick, the capacitance distribution can be uneven, which affects the performance of the device.

[0058] S1: forming a first conductive type epitaxial layer 102 in a first conductive type substrate 101; forming a first trench 111 and a second trench 115 in the first conductive type epitaxial layer 102, wherein the center line of the first conductive type epitaxial layer 102 between the first trench 111 and the second trench 115 is the boundary line between the terminal region and the active region;

[0061] S4: removing the thick oxide layer 103 with the first hard mask layer 112 as a mask; then removing the first hard mask layer 112 and depositing the inter-gate oxide 105 and the silicon nitride 113 with uniform thickness;
[0062] S5: filling the mask polysilicon 114 and the second hard mask layer 116 in the first trench and the second trench, the second hard mask layer 116 covering the side of the second trench away from the first trench, and the covering area of the second hard mask layer 116 being greater than or equal to the covering area of the first hard mask layer 112;
[0063] S6: removing the inter-gate oxide 105 on the inner side of the adjacent first trench and second trench with the second hard mask layer 116 as a mask; then sequentially removing the second hard mask layer 116, the mask polysilicon 114 and the silicon nitride 113;

[0065] In order to remove the inter-gate oxide 105 between the gate polysilicon 106 and the second conductive type body region 108, the silicon nitride 113, the mask polysilicon 114 and the second hard mask layer 116 are introduced in the present application, which ensures that the inter-gate oxide 105 between the gate polysilicon 106 and the second conductive type body region 108 is completely etched before the gate oxide medium 107 is generated.

[0067] Embodiment 2
[0068] Please refer toFigures 1-14 This application provides a method for fabricating a shielded gate trench power device, comprising:
[0069] S1: As Figure 1 As shown, a first conductivity type epitaxial layer 102 is formed in a first conductivity type substrate 101; the first conductivity type can be N-type or P-type; the first conductivity type epitaxial layer 102 is located on the first conductivity type substrate 101, specifically, the first conductivity type epitaxial layer 102 is located on the upper surface of the first conductivity type substrate 101, and the doping concentration of the epitaxial layer 102 is lighter than that of the substrate 101, and the first conductivity type substrate is silicon.
[0070] A hard mask layer for trench etching is formed on the epitaxial layer 102 of the first conductivity type. The hard mask layer consists of an oxide layer and a nitride layer. The first trench 111 and the second trench 115 are formed through photolithography, etching, and other process steps. Figure 3 As shown in the diagram. The center line of the epitaxial layer of the first conductivity type between the first and second trenches serves as the boundary between the termination region and the active region. The depths of the first and second trenches are 4.0 μm to 6.5 μm.
[0071] S2: The hard mask layer composed of oxide and nitride layers is etched away using a wet etching process, such as... Figure 4 As shown, a thick oxide layer 103 of uniform thickness is deposited on the inner side of the first trench 111 and the second trench 115 and on the upper surface of the first conductivity type epitaxial layer 102.
[0072] The thick oxide layer 103 is formed by deposition through a thermal oxidation process, or by a combination of thermal oxidation and deposition processes. The thickness of the oxide layer grown by thermal oxidation is 3000 Å to 5000 Å, while the oxide layer grown by deposition process is 1000 Å to 1500 Å.
[0073] S3: The first trench 111 and the second trench 115 are filled with a shielding gate polysilicon 104 and a first hard mask layer 112, wherein the first hard mask layer 112 covers the side of the second trench away from the first trench; specifically including:
[0074] S31: As Figure 5 As shown, the first trench 111 and the second trench 115 are filled with shielding gate polysilicon 104. At this time, the shielding gate polysilicon 104 covers the entire device surface to ensure that there are no voids or other abnormalities in the filling shielding gate polysilicon 104.
[0075] The polysilicon shielding gate 104 is planarized, with the planarization stopping at a position 200-500 Å above the thick oxide layer 103; for example... Figure 6As shown, the shielding gate polysilicon 104 is etched back, and the etching stop layer is located on the thick oxide layer 103 dielectric above the first conductivity type epitaxial layer 102. Then, the shielding gate polysilicon 104 is etched again so that the upper surface of the shielding gate polysilicon 104 is slightly lower than the upper surface of the first conductivity type epitaxial layer.
[0076] S32: A first hard mask layer 112 is formed on the surface of the shielding gate polysilicon 104, and the first hard mask layer 112 covers the side of the second trench away from the first trench. Specifically, the area covered by the first hard mask layer 112 is located at the exact center of the second trench or at a position where the second trench is 3 / 1 or 3 / 2 away from the first trench.
[0077] For ease of description, the region of the shielding gate polysilicon 104 covered by the first hard mask layer 112 is referred to as the first region of the shielding gate polysilicon 104, and the region of the shielding gate polysilicon 104 not covered by the first hard mask layer 112 is referred to as the second region of the shielding gate polysilicon 104.
[0078] S33: As Figure 7 As shown, the shielding gate polysilicon 104 is etched back using the first hard mask layer 112 as a mask. The etch-back depth of the shielding gate polysilicon 104 can specifically be 1.0um-1.5um. This etch-back step refers to etching back the area exposed outside the first hard mask layer 112, while the shielding gate polysilicon 104 inside the area covered by the first hard mask layer 112 is retained.
[0079] S4: As Figure 8 As shown, using the first hard mask layer 112 as a mask, the thick oxide layer 103 is removed by wet or dry etching. Then, the first hard mask layer 112 is removed, and gate oxide 105 and silicon nitride 113 of uniform thickness are deposited; as... Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown.
[0080] In this step, gate oxide 105 and silicon nitride 113 of uniform thickness are deposited using chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Unlike existing fabrication methods, the gate oxide 105 in this embodiment is generated solely through CVD deposition, rather than by deposition followed by etching. The thickness of the gate oxide 105 is 2000 Å to 2500 Å, and the thickness of the silicon nitride 113 is 500 Å to 1000 Å. Furthermore, the deposited gate oxide 105 plus the gate oxide dielectric 107 represents the final thickness of the gate oxide layer dielectric between the shielding gate polysilicon 104 and the gate polysilicon 106 in the final shielded gate device.
[0081] S5: filling mask polysilicon 114 and second hard mask layer 116 in the first trench and the second trench, the second hard mask layer 116 covers the side of the second trench away from the first trench, and the coverage area of the second hard mask layer 116 is greater than or equal to the coverage area of the first hard mask layer 112; specifically including:
[0082] S51: as shown in the first trench and the second trench, fill the mask polysilicon 114; and planarization treatment; so that the upper surface of the mask polysilicon 114 is higher than the upper surface of the silicon nitride 113; At this time, the intergate oxide layer 105, the silicon nitride 113, the mask polysilicon 114 exist in turn on the first conductive type epitaxial layer 102. Figure 10
[0083] S52: depositing a second hard mask layer 116 on the upper surface of the mask polysilicon 114, and the second hard mask layer 116 covers the side of the second trench away from the first trench, and the coverage area of the second hard mask layer 116 is greater than or equal to the coverage area of the first hard mask layer 112; The coverage area of the second hard mask layer 116 is greater than or equal to the coverage area of the first hard mask layer 112, which means that the left edge of the second hard mask layer 116 is not located on the left side of the left edge of the first hard mask layer 112.
[0084] S53: taking the second hard mask layer 116 as a mask, and etching back the mask polysilicon 114 until the silicon nitride 113 is exposed, specifically using dry etching process to etch back the mask polysilicon 114, and stopping etching back to the silicon nitride dielectric layer 113 on the first conductive type epitaxial layer 102; as shown in Figure 11
[0085] S6: taking the second hard mask layer 116 as a mask, removing the intergate oxide 105 in the inner side area of the adjacent first trench and second trench; then sequentially removing the second hard mask layer 116, the mask polysilicon 114 and the silicon nitride 113; specifically including:
[0086] S61: taking the second hard mask layer 116 as a mask, using wet process to etch the silicon nitride 113 and the intergate oxide 105 in turn, forming a reverse concave groove on the side wall of the column, the column refers to the protrusion between the first trench and the second trench; as shown in Figure 12 、 13 ,
[0087] As can be seen, due to the presence of the second hard mask layer 116, the mask polysilicon 114 in the area covered by the second hard mask layer 116 will not be etched. Due to the presence of the mask polysilicon 114, the silicon nitride 113 in the area covered by the mask polysilicon 114 will not be etched; only a portion of the window of the silicon nitride 113 will be etched. Due to the presence of the silicon nitride 113, the gate oxide 105 covered by the silicon nitride 113 will not be etched, resulting in the silicon nitride 113 and gate oxide 105 on the side and surface of the pillar being etched, forming a concave blank area. The silicon nitride 113 and gate oxide 105 in the area covered by the mask polysilicon 114 will not be etched.
[0088] S62: Remove the second hard mask layer 116;
[0089] S63: Use wet or dry etching processes to etch and remove the mask polysilicon 114;
[0090] S64: Remove silicon nitride 113 by etching using wet or dry etching processes.
[0091] S7: As Figure 1 As shown, a gate oxide dielectric 107 is formed by furnace tube process; gate polysilicon 106 is deposited, followed by the formation of a second conductivity type body region 108, a first conductivity type source region 109, a source contact hole, and a source metal 110. Finally, the first conductivity type substrate is thinned to form the drain electrode.
[0092] like Figure 1 As shown, a second conductivity type body region 108 is formed in the pillar in this application. A first conductivity type source region 109 is formed on the upper surface of the pillar, and a gate polysilicon 106 is formed at the edge of the pillar. The thickness between the gate polysilicon 106 and the pillar is the thickness of the gate oxide dielectric 107. The gate polysilicon 106 is located in the second region of the shielding gate polysilicon 104. The inter-gate oxide dielectric between the shielding gate polysilicon 104 and the gate polysilicon 106 is formed by the inter-gate oxide 105 and the gate oxide dielectric 107. The inter-gate oxide 105 is formed by direct deposition, and the gate oxide dielectric 107 is generated by furnace tube thermal oxidation. Since both deposition and furnace tube thermal oxidation are isotropic, the thickness of the inter-gate oxide dielectric is ensured to be uniform.
[0093] In this application, the thickness between the gate polysilicon 106 and the pillar is the thickness of the gate oxide dielectric 107. The second region of the shield gate polysilicon 104 simultaneously includes the inter-gate oxide 105 and the gate oxide dielectric 107, while the side of the second trench away from the first trench simultaneously includes a thick oxide layer, the inter-gate oxide 105 and the gate oxide dielectric 107.
