[0059] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The present application is not limited to this embodiment, and other embodiments can also fall within the scope of the present application as long as they comply with the main idea of the present application.

[0060] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, based on the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art, a preparation method of a high-density self-aligned silicon carbide MOS device is provided, as shown in the figure, comprising: Figure 1

[0061] Step S1, providing a substrate, depositing a first polysilicon layer as a hard mask on both side edges of the upper surface of the substrate, and then performing ion implantation after etching the substrate to form a well region;

[0062] Step S2, growing a silicon dioxide layer around the first polysilicon layer, and then sequentially depositing a silicon nitride layer and a second polysilicon layer to form a first stack layer comprising the silicon dioxide layer, the silicon nitride layer and the second polysilicon layer, and a second stack layer comprising the silicon dioxide layer and the silicon nitride layer located on both sides of the first stack layer, the top of the first stack layer being flush with the top of the second stack layer;

[0063] Step S3, dividing the top region of the first stack layer and the second stack layer into two first regions and a second region located between the two first regions, and etching the second polysilicon layer of the second region, and then removing the silicon nitride layer of the first region and the second region and etching the silicon dioxide layer to form a side wall around the two first polysilicon layers, respectively;

[0064] Step S4, performing source region implantation in the first region with the first stack layer and the two side walls as a hard mask, and in the second region with the two side walls as a hard mask to form a double self-aligned first-type source injection region;

[0065] Step S5, forming a second-type source injection region on the substrate corresponding to the position of the first stack layer in the first region;

[0066] Step S6, forming a source electrode based on the first-type source injection region and the second-type source injection region, forming a polysilicon gate electrode, and forming a drain electrode on the lower surface of the substrate to prepare a high-density self-aligned silicon carbide MOS device.

[0067] ​Specifically, since the channel resistance accounts for a large proportion of the on-resistance of the silicon carbide MOSFET, the drift region resistance and the substrate resistance account for a relatively small proportion, especially for the power device with a low breakdown voltage such as 750V and 1200V for the silicon carbide material, the proportion of the channel resistance can reach 35% to 50% of the total on-resistance, and thus the on-resistance of the silicon carbide MOSFET device can be significantly reduced by considering reducing the channel resistance. Generally, reducing the cell size of the power device can increase the number of channels in the unit area and increase the current path, so as to reduce the channel resistance of the device and further reduce the on-resistance of the device. The present application provides a preparation method of a high-density self-aligned silicon carbide MOS device, which can reduce the cell size of the device and further reduce the on-resistance of the silicon carbide MOSFET device.

[0068] Further specifically, in the embodiment, the substrate is a silicon carbide substrate, including but not limited to 4H-SiC, 6H-SiC, 3C-SiC or 15R-SiC crystal type silicon carbide, and the corresponding well region can be N-type or P-type. Taking the N-type substrate required for manufacturing an N-type planar gate MOSFET as an example, a first polysilicon layer is deposited on both side edges of the upper surface of the substrate as a hard mask to etch the substrate and form a P-type well region by ion implantation. If a P-channel planar gate MOSFET is needed, the N-type and P-type in the description are simply interchanged.

[0069] Preferably, as shown in Figure 2 The substrate 1 is an epitaxial silicon carbide substrate, a corresponding mask can be used for lithography and etching to form a well region 2 by ion implantation. Subsequently, a layer of silicon dioxide 4 is grown around the first polysilicon layer 3 by thermal oxidation. As shown in Figure 3 The thickness of the silicon dioxide layer 4 determines the channel length of the designed high-density self-aligned silicon carbide MOS device, which can be set according to the electrical requirements of the device design. Subsequently, a certain thickness of a silicon nitride layer 5 and a second polysilicon layer 6 are deposited in sequence on the silicon dioxide layer 4, wherein the thickness a of the silicon nitride layer 5 determines the minimum implantation window of the first type source implantation region in the subsequent process, and the thickness of the second polysilicon layer 6 is appropriate to fill the MESA (mesa) between the two first polysilicon layers 3 in the cell region.

[0070] As can be seen, after the silicon nitride layer 5 and the second polysilicon layer 6 are sequentially deposited on the silicon dioxide layer 4, two kinds of stack structures are formed on the substrate 1, wherein, a first stack of the silicon dioxide layer 4, the silicon nitride layer 5 and the second polysilicon layer 6 is formed in the middle region above the well region 2, and a second stack of the first polysilicon layer 3, the silicon dioxide layer 4, the silicon nitride layer 5 and the second polysilicon layer 6 is formed in the edge region of the substrate. At this time, the upper surface of the silicon nitride layer 5 is completely covered by the second polysilicon layer 6. In order to facilitate subsequent etching, in the preferred embodiment of the present application, after the silicon nitride layer 5 and the second polysilicon layer 6 are sequentially deposited on the silicon dioxide layer 4 in step S2, the top of the first stack and the top of the second stack are made flush by performing chemical mechanical polishing on the second polysilicon layer 6, as shown in Figure 4-1 .

[0071] Further, in the preferred embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 4 , a source implantation mask is further provided, which includes two light opaque regions corresponding to the first regions 7 and a light transparent region corresponding to the second region 8 between the two light opaque regions,

[0072] In step S3, the top regions of the first stack and the second stack are divided into two first regions and a second region between the two first regions by the source implantation mask, and the second polysilicon layer of the second region is etched, and then the photoresist is removed.

[0073] Specifically, in the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 4-1 and Figure 4-2 , wherein the stack structure of the two first regions 7 remains unchanged, the second polysilicon layer 6 of the second region 8 is etched and the silicon nitride layer 5 is completely exposed.

[0074] In the preferred embodiment of the present application, after the second polysilicon layer 6 of the second region 8 is etched, in step S3, the silicon nitride layer 5 of the first region 7 and the second region 8 is then removed by wet etching to expose the underlying silicon dioxide layer 4, wherein the silicon nitride layer 5 below the second polysilicon layer 6 of the first region 7 is retained due to the presence of the top second polysilicon layer 6 of the first stack in this region. Then, the exposed silicon dioxide layer 4 is etched by dry etching to form a side wall 9 around each of the two first polysilicon layers 3, forming a structure as shown in Figure 5 , Figure 5-1 and Figure 5-2 . As can be seen, as shown in Figure 5-1 , two source region implantation windows 10 are formed in the first region 7, as shown in Figure 5-2As shown, a source region injection window 10 is formed in the second region 8, and then the first type source injection region 11 is formed by source region injection into the corresponding source region injection window in the first region with the first stack and the two side walls as hard masks and in the second region with the two side walls as hard masks, as shown in Figure 6 、 Figure 6-1 and Figure 6-2 . In the first region 7, the two source region injection windows 10 formed are the minimum injection windows of the first type source injection region 11, and the thickness of the silicon nitride layer 5 is the thickness of the two source region injection windows 10. Therefore, the thickness a of the silicon nitride layer 5 determines the minimum injection window of the first type source injection region, and the size of the first type source injection region can be very small and is not limited by the photolithography machine.

[0075] After the first type source injection region 11 is formed, the second type source injection region is formed on the substrate in the position corresponding to the first stack in the first region, as shown in Figure 7 . The step S5 includes:

[0076] Step S51, the two first polysilicon layers and the corresponding two side walls in the first region, the first stack in the first region, and the two first polysilicon layers and the corresponding two side walls in the second region are removed to expose the substrate, and then high-temperature activation and diffusion are performed.

[0077] Step S52, a third polysilicon layer is deposited on the substrate as a hard mask, and a contact region is etched on the substrate in the position corresponding to the first stack in the first region, and then source region injection is performed on the contact region to form the second type source injection region.

[0078] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the two first polysilicon layers 3, the corresponding two side walls 9, and the first stack in the first region 7 are removed, the well region 2, the two first type source injection regions 11, and part of the substrate 1 in the first region 7 are completely exposed. After the two first polysilicon layers 3 and the corresponding two side walls 9 in the second region 8 are removed, the well region 2, the first type source injection region 11, and part of the substrate 1 in the second region 8 are completely exposed, and the structure shown in Figure 8 、 Figure 8-1 and Figure 8-2 is formed, and then high-temperature activation and diffusion are performed. Then, the third polysilicon layer (not shown in the figure) deposited as a hard mask is used to etch a contact region between the two first type source injection regions 11 in the first region 7, and source region injection is performed to form the second type source injection region 12, and the structure shown in Figure 9 、 Figure 9-1 and Figure 9-2 is formed.

[0079] After the first type source implantation region 11 and the second type source implantation region 12 are formed, a source is formed based on the first type source implantation region and the second type source implantation region, a polysilicon gate is formed, and a drain is formed on the lower surface of the substrate to obtain the high-density self-aligned silicon carbide MOS device. In the preferred embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 10 Step S6 includes:

[0080] Step S61, a field oxide layer is deposited on the substrate, and active regions are etched on the positions corresponding to the first type source implantation region and the second type source implantation region.

[0081] Step S62, a sacrificial oxide layer is grown on the active regions, and then a gate oxide layer is grown after the sacrificial oxide layer is removed, and then a fourth polysilicon layer is deposited to etch the polysilicon gate.

[0082] Step S63, a dielectric layer is deposited on the fourth polysilicon layer, and gate and source contact holes are etched on the positions corresponding to the active regions.

[0085] Step S66, a back metal is deposited on the lower surface of the substrate to form a drain to obtain the high-density self-aligned silicon carbide MOS device.

[0086] Specifically, in the embodiment, as shown in Figure 11 , Figure 11-1 , Figure 11-2 The field oxide layer and the sacrificial oxide layer are not shown in the figure. In step S62, after the field oxide layer 13 is grown and the fourth polysilicon layer 14 is deposited, the polysilicon gate is etched by using a corresponding mask and lithography. Similarly, after the dielectric layer 15 is deposited on the fourth polysilicon layer 14, the gate and source contact hole 16 is etched by using a corresponding mask and lithography. Further, as shown in Figure 12 and Figure 13 The top layer metal 17 is sputtered on the dielectric layer 15, and then the top layer metal 17 is etched by using a corresponding mask and lithography to form the source and the gate of the device. The gate, the source, the passivation layer, and the drain are not shown in the figure and are not the main points of the present technical solution.

[0087] In the preferred embodiment of the present application, in step S51, the two first polysilicon layers and the corresponding two side walls in the first region, the first stack in the first region, and the two first polysilicon layers and the corresponding two side walls in the second region are removed by using a wet method.

[0088] In the preferred embodiment of the present application, the sacrificial oxide layer is removed by wet etching in step S62.

[0089] In the preferred embodiment of the present application, the back metal is deposited on the lower surface of the substrate to form the drain by sputtering or evaporation in step S66.
