Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to a method for manufacturing an enhanced HEMT device, and in particular to a method for realizing a recessed gate enhanced HEMT device by wet etching. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of the economy, people are paying more and more attention to resource conservation, requiring higher and higher efficiency of energy utilization in the process of electric energy conversion. In order to achieve this requirement, power electronics technology is needed to realize energy conversion, and power devices prepared by semiconductor technology are used to efficiently transform and control energy, thereby reducing energy loss in the conversion process and achieving a high-efficiency conversion process.
[0003] As an important third-generation semiconductor material, nitride semiconductors have a large bandgap, high electron mobility, high breakdown electric field, and high electron saturation drift velocity. They are widely used in industries, power systems, transportation, communications, consumer electronics, and other fields. AlGaN / GaN semiconductor heterojunctions can form high concentrations (>10 13 cm -2 ) and high electron mobility (>10 3 cm 2 / V·s) of two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG). Based on this characteristic of nitride semiconductor heterojunction, high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) is prepared as a power switching device, and its operating frequency can reach 10MHz. However, HEMT devices prepared using two-dimensional electron gas are all depletion devices, and negative voltage is required to turn them off in practical applications. Such circuits are both complex and have safety risks.
[0004] To prepare an enhancement-mode HEMT device, it is necessary to deplete the two-dimensional electron gas in the channel under the gate, which can be achieved by changing the device structure at the gate. Currently, there are several methods to achieve enhancement-mode devices: ① Recessed gate structure, etching the AlGaN under the gate to weaken the polarization effect; ② F ion treatment, injecting F ions into the AlGaN barrier under the gate to deplete the two-dimensional electron gas below; ③ Cascode structure, connecting the depletion-mode AlGaN / GaN HEMT device and the enhancement-mode Si metal oxide semiconductor field effect device (MOSFET) device; ④ p-type gate structure, inserting a p-(Al)GaN layer between the gate and the AlGaN layer, and using the built-in electric field of the pn junction to deplete the two-dimensional electron gas in the channel.
[0005] Through the above solution ①, that is, etching the AlGaN layer under the gate, enhanced AlGaN / GaN HEMT can be realized. However, the traditional etching method will cause great lattice damage, which will not only reduce the device saturation current, but also turn on when a certain positive voltage is applied to the gate, resulting in gate leakage, which not only affects the forward safe working voltage, but also increases switching losses and affects conversion efficiency.
[0006] Wet etching can significantly reduce the etching damage caused by recessed gate etching, increase the saturation current when the device is turned on, and reduce gate leakage. The inventor of this case has proposed a method for realizing enhanced HEMT devices by light-assisted electrochemical etching, which mainly utilizes the chemical reaction of H2SO4 or KOH solution with AlGaN, and removes part or all of the barrier layer under the gate in the HEMT epitaxial structure (wafer) through external electrodes and light assistance, so as to deplete the two-dimensional electron gas under the gate to prepare enhanced HEMT. However, this method has the following shortcomings, for example: the external electrode of the wafer will cause a potential gradient in the entire wafer, making the current density of the entire wafer uneven, resulting in uneven etching; the etching products of H2SO4 or KOH solution will not be removed immediately, but will be removed by other solutions that can dissolve the etching products, which makes the process complicated and the cost high; the etching rate is slow, which is not conducive to mass production. Summary of the invention

[0030] As mentioned above, in view of the many deficiencies in the prior art, the inventor of this case, after long-term and in-depth research and extensive practice, was able to propose the technical solution of the present invention, as detailed below.
[0031] An aspect of an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for implementing a recessed gate enhancement mode HEMT device by wet etching, comprising:
[0032] An epitaxial wafer for manufacturing a recessed gate enhanced HEMT device is provided, wherein the epitaxial wafer comprises a heterojunction, wherein the heterojunction comprises a first semiconductor layer body as a channel layer and a second semiconductor layer as a barrier layer, and a two-dimensional electron gas is formed in the heterojunction;
[0033] Disposing a patterned etching mask on the second semiconductor layer, and exposing a selected area of the surface of the second semiconductor layer from the etching mask;
[0034] The selected area on the surface of the second semiconductor layer is brought into contact with an etching agent, and the selected area on the surface of the second semiconductor layer is irradiated with ultraviolet light, so as to form a groove structure by etching in the selected area of the second semiconductor layer, and deplete the two-dimensional electron gas under the groove structure, wherein the groove structure is used to cooperate with the gate;
[0035] The etching reagent is a persulfate solution, in which the solute is single and the solution is easy to prepare. At the same time, the persulfate solution is acidic and has no corrosiveness to the semiconductor except in the illuminated area.
[0036] In some embodiments, the method for implementing a recessed gate enhanced HEMT device by wet etching specifically includes: immersing at least the second semiconductor layer in an etching agent.
[0037] In some embodiments, the method for implementing a recessed gate enhanced HEMT device by wet etching specifically includes: immersing the entire epitaxial wafer in an etching agent.
[0038] In some embodiments, the concentration of the persulfate solution is 0.05 mol / L-0.18 mol / L, and the pH value is 2-5.
[0039] In some embodiments, the persulfate includes sodium persulfate (Na2S2O8), ammonium persulfate ((NH4)2S2O8), and the like, but is not limited thereto.
[0040] In the above embodiments of the present invention, low-damage wet etching is performed on the gate region under the HEMT device to form a groove gate, thereby avoiding the problem of damage introduced by the dry etching process. In addition, the etching process does not require an external electrode, the etching device is simple, the etching is uniform, and the repeatability is good. At the same time, the selected etching agent can directly dissolve the etching product, and there is no need to add a process step for removing the etching product. The removal of the etching product will not cause secondary etching damage to the groove, and a low-damage groove can be obtained at one time, and the process is simple.
[0041] Taking potassium persulfate (K2S2O8) solution as an etchant as an example, the etching principle of the embodiment of the present invention is that after ultraviolet irradiation or ultraviolet irradiation and heating, the following reaction occurs in the potassium persulfate solution:
[0042] S2O8 2- →2S,
[0043] Furthermore, when the etched area on the barrier layer (the area below the gate) is irradiated with ultraviolet light, the following reaction occurs:
[0044] GaN(S)+photocarries(3h + +3e - )+3S→3SO4 2- +Ga 3+ +1 / 2N2↑
[0045] AlGaN(S)+photocarries(6h + +6e - )+6S→6SO4 2- +Ga 3+ +Al 3+ +1 / 2N2↑;
[0046] It can be seen from the above reaction that the etching product is directly dissolved in the solution, and the higher the solution temperature, the more S The faster the etching reaction, the faster the etching reaction. Therefore, the etching speed can be controlled by controlling the temperature, and the etching solution concentration can be increased to increase the etching speed. The aforementioned photocarries are photogenerated carriers.
[0047] Furthermore, after the groove structure is formed on the device using the method described in the above embodiment, the surface thereof is smooth.
[0048] In some embodiments, the wet etching method for realizing a recessed gate enhanced HEMT device further includes: before or during etching the selected area of the second semiconductor layer to form the recessed structure, heating the etching agent to 50-80° C., wherein if the temperature is too high, it is not conducive to obtaining a high-quality etched surface. In this way, low-damage etching can be performed, and the etching rate can be increased, making the process more efficient.
[0049] In some embodiments, the wavelength of the ultraviolet light is 200-400 nm.
[0050] In some embodiments, the barrier layer comprises Al x Ga 1-x N, AlInN, AlInGaN or GaN, wherein 0<x≤1, but not limited thereto.
[0051] In some embodiments, the constituent material of the channel layer includes GaN or InGaN, etc., but is not limited thereto.
[0052] For example, the heterojunction may be an AlGaN / GaN heterojunction, a GaN / InGaN heterojunction, etc., and is not limited thereto.
[0053] In some embodiments, the material of the etching mask includes any one of silicon dioxide, silicon nitride, and photoresist, but is not limited thereto.
[0054] Furthermore, an etching mask can be formed by first forming a mask layer on the surface of the etching sample and then performing a patterning process, wherein the patterning method can be selected from but is not limited to using laser direct writing, electron beam lithography or ultraviolet lithography.
[0055] Furthermore, the depth of the groove structure is sufficient to deplete the two-dimensional electron gas thereunder.
[0056] Furthermore, the etching depth of the recessed gate structure depends on the aluminum component in the barrier layer and the total thickness of the barrier layer. For example, the depth of the recessed gate structure may be 10 nm-30 nm.
[0057] In some embodiments, the method for implementing a recessed gate enhanced HEMT device by wet etching further includes: after etching to form the recessed structure, covering the surface of the epitaxial wafer with an insulating dielectric layer, and then manufacturing a source, a drain, and a gate.
[0058] Furthermore, the source and drain can be made on the epitaxial wafer, and then a dielectric layer can be grown on the epitaxial wafer, and a gate can be formed on the dielectric layer in a region corresponding to the recessed gate structure, and then the dielectric layer on the source and drain can be removed to form a HEMT device.
[0059] The methods for processing and forming the source electrode, the drain electrode, the gate electrode and the dielectric layer may be well known in the industry.
[0060] The dielectric layer (gate dielectric) should have high insulation and breakdown resistance characteristics, and be able to form a low interface state with the heterojunction, such as the GaN or AlGaN semiconductor therein.
[0061] Furthermore, the material of the insulating dielectric layer may be silicon nitride, aluminum oxide, silicon oxide, etc., but is not limited thereto.
[0062] Furthermore, after the recessed gate structure is formed, the mask may be removed by a common method known in the industry.

After etching is completed, the metal mask can be removed using a hydrochloric acid / nitric acid mixed solution. The surface of the device structure finally obtained in this step (including the inner wall of the groove) is smooth and flat, and the side wall of the groove is perpendicular to the surface of the epitaxial wafer.

[0093] Comparative Example 2: This comparative example 1 is substantially the same as Example 1, except that:
