Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of surface modification, and in particular to a super junction IGBT with low off-current tailing and a manufacturing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] IGBT stands for Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor. Functionally, an IGBT is a circuit switch. Its advantages lie in its voltage control, low saturation voltage drop, and high withstand voltage. It can be used in high-voltage applications with voltages ranging from tens to hundreds of volts and currents from tens to hundreds of amperes. Furthermore, IGBTs do not require mechanical switches; they are controlled by computers.

[0003] As a new generation of high-speed IGBT design technology, the excellent electrical performance of super junction IGBT has been verified experimentally. For example, the device structure of a super junction IGBT is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, 1 is the P-collector region, 2 is the N-drift region, 3 is the columnar structure of the P-type super junction, 4 is the epitaxial layer, 5 is the gate oxide layer, 6 is the gate, 7 is the P-well region, 8 is the N+ emitter, 9 is the dielectric layer, 10 is the emitter metal, 11 is the P+ collector, and 12 is the collector metal.

[0004] The excellent forward conduction capability of an IGBT device is due to the conductivity modulation mechanism in the device's drift region. This physical mechanism accumulates a large number of minority carriers in the device's drift region 2. When the IGBT is turned off, the minority carriers in drift region 2 gradually disappear, forming a tail current. This tail current significantly prolongs the IGBT's turn-off process, thereby increasing turn-off losses. Summary of the Invention

[0038] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the inventors of this case, after long-term research and extensive practice, have proposed the technical solution of the present invention. The following will further explain this technical solution, its implementation process and principles.

[0039] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0040] Moreover, relational terms such as “first” and “second” are merely used to distinguish one component or method step from another with the same name, but do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these components or method steps.

[0041] like Figure 2As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a super junction IGBT with low turn-off current tail, comprising a collector region 1, a drift region 2, an epitaxial layer 4 and a well region 7 arranged in sequence from bottom to top; a plurality of super junction structures are distributed in the drift region 2, and the super junction structure includes a columnar structure 3, which extends from the upper end of the drift region 2 to the inside of the drift region 2 but has no direct contact with the collector region 1; a plurality of emitters 8 are formed on the upper part of the well region 7, and a plurality of gates 6 are distributed in the epitaxial layer 4 and the well region 7, and each emitter 8 surrounds the corresponding The upper part of a gate 6 is arranged and electrically isolated from the gate 6, and the lower part of each gate 6 enters the epitaxial layer 4 but has no direct contact with the drift region 2; the lower end of the collector region 1 is electrically combined with the collector electrode 11; the collector region 1, the well region 7, and the columnar structure 3 are all of the first conductivity type, and the drift region 2, the epitaxial layer 4, and the emitter 8 are all of the second conductivity type; the lower end of the columnar structure 3 is also electrically contacted with a highly doped region 13 of the second conductivity type, and the highly doped region 13 is distributed in the drift region 2 and has no direct contact with the collector region 1.
