Embodiment Construction

Overviews of the Preferred Embodiments

[0046]First, the present invention will be described below regarding the overviews of representative preferred embodiments thereof.[0047]1. In accordance with a representative preferred embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a p-channel power MOSFET comprising: (a) a silicon-based semiconductor substrate having first and second principal surface sides; and (b) a multiplicity of linear trenches disposed in the first principal surface side. Each of the linear trenches includes: (b1) an n-type polysilicon linear field plate electrode; and (b2) an n-type polysilicon linear gate electrode disposed over and along the n-type polysilicon linear field plate electrode.[0048]2. In the p-channel power MOSFET mentioned in item 1, the second principal surface side of the silicon-based semiconductor substrate is provided with a p-type silicon single-crystal substrate region.[0049]3. In the p-channel power MOSFET mentioned in item 2, the first p...

Abstract

In characteristic test measurements of double-gate-in-trench p-channel power MOSFETs each having a p+ polysilicon gate electrode and a p+ field plate electrode in a trench, which were fabricated according to common design techniques, it has been found that, under conditions where a negative gate bias is applied continuously at high temperature with respect to the substrate, an absolute value of threshold voltage tends to increase steeply after the lapse of a certain period of stress application time. To solve this problem, the present invention provides a p-channel power MOSFET having an n-type polysilicon linear field plate electrode and an n-type polysilicon linear gate electrode in each trench part thereof.
