Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of semiconductor, and in particular to a three-dimensional isolated super junction structure field effect transistor and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] The shield gate trench field effect transistor (SGT) has the advantages of low specific on-resistance, small static and dynamic loss, and fast switching speed. This is because it can effectively isolate the coupling between the control gate and the drain, and has obvious advantages in channel density, charge compensation effect and shield gate structure.
[0003] In related technologies, in order to further reduce the drain-source on-resistance of the transistor, a shield gate trench field effect transistor is disclosed in the patent document CN102148256B, which includes a drain region, a drift region, a dielectric layer, a split gate, a gate electrode, an n+ layer, a source electrode, a channel region, and a dielectric layer. The K value of the dielectric layer is distributed according to a certain rule, that is, the K value decreases from the source to the drain. By replacing the original side oxygen structure with a dielectric layer with a K value distributed according to a certain rule, and combining the modulation principle that the larger the K value, the stronger the modulation ability, but the smaller the corresponding longitudinal voltage drop, the electric field intensity inside the drift region is approximately uniformly distributed, thereby ensuring the withstand voltage and reducing the drain-source on-resistance.
[0004] However, due to the complex structure of the dielectric layer with a variable trend and the difficulty of processing technology, the above scheme needs to prepare a dielectric layer with a K value distributed according to a certain rule on the transistor, which greatly increases the requirements for the preparation process of the transistor, thereby increasing the time and production cost of the transistor preparation process.

[0067] Embodiment two
[0068] On the basis of the three-dimensional isolated super junction structure field effect transistor shown in embodiment one, the embodiment of the present application provides another three-dimensional isolated super junction structure field effect transistor, which can effectively improve the avalanche withstand and breakdown voltage of the transistor.

In addition, the shield gate is changed from being composed of a heavily doped polysilicon to being a P-type medium doping structure directly connected with the substrate region, so that the electric field distribution in the drift region is further improved, and the breakdown voltage of the transistor is improved.
