[0003] In recent years, in-depth research on high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) has become increasingly prevalent in semiconductor devices, such as high-power switches and high-frequency applications. HEMTs utilize heterojunctions between two materials with different band gaps to form a quantum well-like structure, which houses a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) region to meet the requirements of high-power / high-frequency devices. Besides HEMTs, other examples of devices with heterojunction structures include heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs), heterojunction field-effect transistors (HFETs), and modulation-doped field-effect transistors (MODFETs). Currently, there is a demand for increased production capacity of HEMTs to meet the requirements of mass production. Summary of the Invention

The substrate includes a plurality of first-type doped semiconductor regions and a plurality of second-type doped semiconductor regions extending along a first direction and alternately arranged along a second direction, wherein the first direction and the second direction are different. The first GaN high electron mobility transistor is disposed above the substrate and covers a first region on the plurality of first-type doped semiconductor regions and the plurality of second-type doped semiconductor regions. The second GaN high electron mobility transistor is disposed above the substrate and covers a second region on the plurality of first-type doped semiconductor regions and the plurality of second-type doped semiconductor regions, wherein the first region and the second region are spaced apart from each other. The first internal connector is disposed above the substrate and connects the first regions on the plurality of first-type doped semiconductor regions and the plurality of second-type doped semiconductor regions, and the width of the first internal connector is greater than the source-drain spacing of the first GaN high electron mobility transistor. The second internal connector is disposed above the substrate and connects the second region on the plurality of first-type doped semiconductor regions and the plurality of second-type doped semiconductor regions, and the width of the second internal connector is greater than the source-drain spacing of the second gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor.

[0005] According to another aspect of this disclosure, a semiconductor device is provided, characterized in that it includes a substrate, a first gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor (GaN high electron mobility transistor), a second gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor (GaN high electron mobility transistor), a first internal connector, and a second internal connector. The substrate includes a plurality of first-type doped semiconductor regions and a plurality of second-type doped semiconductor regions, the plurality of first-type doped semiconductor regions and the plurality of second-type doped semiconductor regions extending along a first direction and alternately arranged along a second direction, wherein the first direction and the second direction are different. The first gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor is disposed above the substrate and covers a first region on the plurality of first-type doped semiconductor regions and the plurality of second-type doped semiconductor regions. The second gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor is disposed above the substrate and covers a second region on the plurality of first-type doped semiconductor regions and the plurality of second-type doped semiconductor regions, wherein the first region and the second region are arranged along the second direction. The first internal connector is disposed above the substrate and connects the first region on the plurality of first-type doped semiconductor regions and the plurality of second-type doped semiconductor regions, and the first internal connector and the first gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor are arranged along the first direction. The second internal connector is disposed above the substrate and connects the second region on the plurality of first-type doped semiconductor regions and the plurality of second-type doped semiconductor regions, and the second internal connector and the second gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor are arranged along the first direction.

[0006] By applying the above configuration, the voltage and current of the semiconductor device can be improved due to the alternating arrangement of first-type and second-type doped semiconductor regions on the substrate. In the semiconductor device, the voltage and current of the second gallium nitride high-electron-mobility transistor can be protected from the influence of the first gallium nitride high-electron-mobility transistor. In other words, when there is a voltage change in the substrate below the second gate electrode, the voltage change in the substrate below the first gate electrode can be reduced. Simultaneously, the first internal connector and the second internal connector can be protected from mutual interference, and each can control the substrate voltage via the first interface and the second interface.

[0029] Figure 1 This is a top view illustrating a semiconductor device 100A according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. To clearly illustrate the features of the present disclosure, some components and material layers of the semiconductor device 100A are omitted in the drawing. In this embodiment, the semiconductor device 100A includes a substrate 110A, gallium nitride high electron mobility transistors 120A and 130A, an internal connector 140A, and an internal connector 150A.

[0030] The substrate 110A has a plurality of first-type doped semiconductor regions 111A and a plurality of second-type doped semiconductor regions 112A. These first-type doped semiconductor regions 111A and second-type doped semiconductor regions 112A extend longitudinally along a first direction d1. These first-type doped semiconductor regions 111A and second-type doped semiconductor regions 112A are arranged alternately along a second direction d2. The second direction d2 is different from the first direction d1. For example, in this embodiment, the first direction d1 and the second direction d2 are perpendicular to each other.

[0031] In semiconductor device 100A, gallium nitride high electron mobility transistors 120A and 130A are disposed above substrate 110A. In one aspect, gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor 120A covers region 101A on the first type-doped semiconductor regions 111A and the second type-doped semiconductor regions 112A in substrate 110A. Gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor 130A covers region 102A on the first type-doped semiconductor regions 111A and the second type-doped semiconductor regions 112A in substrate 110A. Regions 101A and 102A are different. Spacing g1 is located between regions 101A and 102A in a second direction d2.

[0032] In this embodiment, the first-type doped semiconductor regions 111A and the second-type doped semiconductor regions 112A form a plurality of interfaces 113A. The interval g1 between regions 101A and 102A spans at least two interfaces 113A. For example, in this embodiment, the interval g1 spans four interfaces 113A.

[0033] Figure 2 It is based on Figure 1 The diagram shows a side cross-sectional view of the semiconductor device 100A, as indicated by cut line I1. The gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor 120A of this embodiment has a heterojunction region 125A between two nitride semiconductor layers 103A and 104A. The gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor 120A has a two-dimensional electron gas region 126A adjacent to the heterojunction region 125A. In other words, the heterojunction region 125A is a heterojunction located in region 101A between the two nitride semiconductor layers 103A and 104A.

[0034] The gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor 130A has a heterojunction region 135A between two nitride semiconductor layers 103A and 104A. The gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor 130A has a two-dimensional electron gas region 136A adjacent to the heterojunction region 135A. The heterojunction region 135A is a heterojunction located in region 102A between the two nitride semiconductor layers 103A and 104A.

[0035] In this embodiment, a nitride semiconductor layer 104A is disposed on a nitride semiconductor layer 103A. The band gap of the nitride semiconductor layer 104A is larger than that of the nitride semiconductor layer 103A. Therefore, a two-dimensional electron gas region 126A and a two-dimensional electron gas region 136A are respectively formed in regions 101A and 102A.

[0036] In this embodiment, the four interfaces 113A are located between regions 101A and 102A. Therefore, on the substrate 110A, the voltage of region 101A is not affected by the voltage change of region 102A.

[0037] Furthermore, a pair of source / drain electrodes 121A and 122A are disposed on the nitride semiconductor layer 104A. A gate electrode 123A is disposed on the nitride semiconductor layer 104A. The gate electrode 123A is disposed between these source / drain electrodes 121A and 122A. A pair of source / drain electrodes 131A and 132A are disposed on the nitride semiconductor layer 104A. A gate electrode 133A is disposed on the nitride semiconductor layer 104A. The gate electrode 133A is disposed between these source / drain electrodes 131A and 132A. These source / drain electrodes 121A and 122A, and the gate electrode 123A, are located in region 101A. These source / drain electrodes 131A, 132A and gate electrode 133A are located in region 102A. When the voltage of substrate 110A in region 102A is changed by the source / drain electrodes 131A, 132A and gate electrode 133A, the voltage of substrate 110A in region 101A is not affected.

[0038] For example, each source / drain electrode 121A, 122A, 131A, 132A includes one or more common conductive layers. In some embodiments, these source / drain electrodes 121A, 122A, 131A, 132A may comprise, for example, metals, alloys, doped semiconductor materials (such as doped crystalline silicon), other conductive materials, or combinations thereof, but this disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the materials of the source / drain electrodes 121A, 122A, 131A, 132A may comprise, for example, titanium (Ti), aluminum-silicon alloy (AlSi), titanium nitride (TiN), or combinations thereof, but this disclosure is not limited thereto. In some disclosed embodiments, these source / drain electrodes 121A, 122A, 131A, 132A each form an ohmic contact with the nitride semiconductor layer 104. These source / drain electrodes 121A, 122A, 131A, 132A can achieve these ohmic contacts using titanium (Ti), aluminum (Al), or other suitable materials. In some embodiments, a dielectric layer such as silicon nitride (SiN) (not shown) can be disposed between the nitride semiconductor layer 104 and these source / drain electrodes 121A, 122A, 131A, 132A.

[0039] Reference Figure 1Internal connector 140A is disposed above substrate 110A. Internal connector 150A is disposed above substrate 110A. Depending on one aspect, internal connector 140A and region 101A may have the same length in the second direction d2. Internal connector 150A and region 102A may also have the same length in the second direction d2. Depending on the application of the device, these lengths may also be chosen to be different from each other.

[0040] Figure 3 It is based on Figure 1 A side cross-sectional view illustrated by section symbol I2. An internal connector 140A is disposed above a substrate 110A. A portion of a first-type doped semiconductor region 111A and a second-type doped semiconductor region 112A are located below the internal connector 140A. The internal connector 140A passes through two nitride semiconductor layers 103A and 104A. The internal connector 140A is electrically connected to the substrate 110A. A portion of region 101A and the internal connector 140A form an interface 141A. In other words, the internal connector 140A is connected to the substrate 110A through interface 141A.

[0041] An internal connector 150A is disposed above a substrate 110A. Some type-1 doped semiconductor regions 111A and type-2 doped semiconductor regions 112A are located below the internal connector 150A. The internal connector 150A also passes through two nitride semiconductor layers 103A and 104A. The internal connector 150A is electrically connected to the substrate 110A. A portion of region 102A and the internal connector 150A form an interface 151A. In other words, the internal connector 150A is connected to the substrate 110A through interface 151A.

[0042] Therefore, the voltage of substrate 110A in regions 101A and 102A can be independently controlled by internal connectors 140A and 150A, respectively. By providing an electrical signal to internal connector 140A, the voltage of substrate 110A in region 101A can be maintained within a selected range. By providing an electrical signal to internal connector 150A, the voltage of substrate 110A in region 102A can be maintained within a selected range. These voltages can be the same or different from each other.

[0043] Conversely, when two gallium nitride (GaN) high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) are disposed on a substrate lacking the aforementioned type-1 and type-2 doped semiconductor regions, it becomes difficult to operate these GaNHs individually. Substrate effects occur even without these doped semiconductor regions, causing the two GaNHs to interfere with each other. These substrate effects refer to the sharing of substrate voltages between the two GaNHs. Therefore, it becomes very difficult to operate these two GaNHs individually.

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, at least two interfaces 113A separate interfaces 141A and 151A. A portion of the nitride semiconductor layer 103A, projected vertically onto the substrate 110A, lies between interfaces 141A and 151A. This portion of the nitride semiconductor layer 103A spans at least two complete doped semiconductor regions 111A and 112A. For example, four interfaces 113A separate interfaces 141A and 151A. This portion of the nitride semiconductor layer 103A spans two complete first-type doped semiconductor regions 111A and one complete second-type doped semiconductor region 112A between interfaces 141A and 151A. The voltage of the substrate 110A in region 101A is not affected by the voltage in region 102A.

[0045] The first type-doped semiconductor region 111A may include a P-type dopant in one aspect. The second type-doped semiconductor region 112A may include an N-type dopant in one aspect. These interfaces 113A include at least two PN junctions. These interfaces 113A may also include PNP structures. In other words, the PNP structure between region 101A and region 102A forms two PN junctions. For example, in the semiconductor device 100A of this embodiment, there are four PN junctions between region 101A and region 102A. In other words, the spacing g1 spans four PN junctions 113A. A portion of the nitride semiconductor layer 103A's vertical projection onto the substrate 110B spans one PNP structure.

[0046] For example, the P-type dopant described above may include beryllium (Be), magnesium (Mg), zinc (Zn), or cadmium (Cd), but this disclosure is not limited to these. The N-type dopant described above may include silicon (Si), but this disclosure is not limited to these.

[0047] Reference Figure 1 A pair of source / drain electrodes 121A and 122A have a source-drain spacing g2 and are arranged along a second direction d2. Interface 141A has a length L1 in the second direction d2 that is longer than the source-drain spacing g2. A pair of source / drain electrodes 131A and 132A have a source-drain spacing g3 and are arranged along the second direction d2. Interface 151A may optionally have a length L2 in the second direction d2 that is longer than the source-drain spacing g3. Depending on the application of the device, these spacings may also have the same length in other configurations.

[0048] In the above configuration, the internal connector 140A can control the voltage under the source / drain electrodes 121A and 122A. The internal connector 150A can control the voltage under the source / drain electrodes 131A and 132A.

[0049] Furthermore, the shortest distance (i.e., the interval g1) from the inner connector 140A to the inner connector 150A can be shorter than the shortest distance L3 from the source / drain electrodes 121A, 122A to the source / drain electrodes 131A, 132A.

[0050] Reference Figure 2 In this embodiment, the substrate 110A includes a base layer 115A and a dielectric layer 114A. The base layer 115A may be made of silicon. Alternatively, the base layer may be germanium, silicon carbide, sapphire, or other known substrate materials.

Type-1 doped semiconductor regions 111A and Type-2 doped semiconductor regions 112A are disposed on the dielectric layer 114A. The dielectric layer 114A can block current between the base layer 115A, the Type-1 doped semiconductor regions 111A, and the Type-2 doped semiconductor regions 112A. For example, the dielectric layer 114A may be formed from a single dielectric material layer or multiple dielectric material layers. The dielectric material may include, for example, one or more oxide layers, silicon oxide (SiO2), etc. x ) layer, silicon nitride (SiN) x The material layer may be a layer with a high dielectric constant (such as hafnium oxide (HfO2), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), titanium dioxide (TiO2), zirconium hafnium oxide (HfZrO), tantalum trioxide (Ta2O3), silicon hafnium oxide (HfSiO4), zirconium dioxide (ZrO2), silicon zirconium oxide (ZrSiO2), etc.) or a combination thereof.

The first-type doped semiconductor regions 111A and the second-type doped semiconductor regions 112A may be formed on the nucleation layer. In some embodiments, a buffer layer may be disposed on the first-type doped semiconductor regions 111A and the second-type doped semiconductor regions 112A. A nitride semiconductor layer 103A may be formed on the buffer layer.

[0052] The materials of these first-type doped semiconductor regions 111A and second-type doped semiconductor regions 112A include gallium nitride (GaN). In some embodiments, these first-type doped semiconductor regions 111A and second-type doped semiconductor regions 112A may comprise nitrides or group III-V compounds, such as gallium nitride (GaN), gallium arsenide (GaAs), indium nitride (InN), aluminum nitride (AlN), indium gallium nitride (InGaN), aluminum gallium nitride (AlGaN), aluminum indium gallium nitride (InAlGaN), or combinations thereof.

[0053] The material of the nitride semiconductor layer 103A may include gallium nitride. The material of the nitride semiconductor layer 104A may include aluminum gallium nitride. The band gap of the nitride semiconductor layer 104A is larger than that of the nitride semiconductor layer 103A, thus allowing the formation of two-dimensional electron gas regions 126A and 136A. In some embodiments, these nitride semiconductor layers 103A and 104A may, for example, include nitrides or group III-V compounds, such as gallium nitride (GaN), aluminum nitride (AlN), indium nitride (InN), and aluminum indium gallium nitride (In). x Al y Ga (1-x-y) N, where x+y≤1), aluminum gallium nitride (Al) y Ga (1-y) N, where y≤1), wherein the band gap of the nitride semiconductor layer 104A is greater than that of the nitride semiconductor layer 103A, thereby forming a two-dimensional electron gas. Alternatively, other devices can also use other binary, ternary, or quaternary group III-V semiconductor compound materials with band gap differences to form heterojunctions and two-dimensional electron gas regions respectively.

[0054] Semiconductor device 100A also includes a passivation layer 180A and multiple connection pads 161A, 162A, 163A, 171A, 172A, and 173A. Connection pads 161A and 162A pass through the passivation layer 180 in region 101A and are electrically connected to source / drain electrodes 121A and 122A, respectively. Connection pad 163A passes through the passivation layer 180 in region 101A and is electrically connected to gate electrode 120A. Connection pads 171A and 172A pass through the passivation layer 180 in region 102A and are electrically connected to source / drain electrodes 131A and 132A, respectively. Connection pad 173A passes through the passivation layer 180 in region 102A and is electrically connected to gate electrode 133A.

[0055] For protection purposes, passivation layer 180A covers source / drain electrodes 121A, 122A, 131A, 132A and gate electrodes 123A, 133A. The material of passivation layer 180A may include, for example, silicon nitride (SiN). x ), silicon dioxide (SiO)x The passivation layer 180A comprises silicon oxynitride (SiON), silicon carbide (SiC), silicon boron nitride (SiBN), silicon boron carbonitride (SiCBN), oxides, nitrides, or combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the passivation layer 180A is a multilayer structure, such as a composite dielectric layer of aluminum oxide / silicon nitride (Al2O3 / SiN), aluminum oxide / silicon oxide (Al2O3 / SiO2), aluminum nitride / silicon nitride (AlN / SiN), aluminum nitride / silicon oxide (AlN / SiO2), or combinations thereof, but this disclosure is not limited thereto.

[0056] Semiconductor device 100A includes a first-type doped gate layer 124A and a first-type doped gate layer 134A. The first-type doped gate layer 124A is disposed between a gate electrode 123A and a nitride semiconductor layer 104A. The first-type doped gate layer 134A is disposed between a gate electrode 133A and a nitride semiconductor layer 104A. For example, these first-type doped gate layers 124A and 134A are doped with a P-type dopant. Therefore, gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor 120A and gallium nitride high electron mobility transistor 130A can operate in a normally off state, generally referred to as enhancement-mode. P-type dopant may include, for example, beryllium (Be), magnesium (Mg), zinc (Zn), and cadmium (Cd), but this disclosure is not limited to these.

[0057] In some embodiments, the first-type doped gate layers 124A and 134A may be omitted from the semiconductor device. Therefore, the semiconductor devices in these embodiments can operate in a normally-on state, generally referred to as depletion-mode. Alternatively, one device may be configured with a doped layer and operate as an enhancement-mode device, while the other operates as a depletion-mode device.

[0058] Reference Figure 3 Semiconductor device 100A includes connection pads 191A and 192A. Connection pad 191A passes through passivation layer 180A and is electrically connected to inner connector 140A.

In the description of some embodiments, a component provided “above” or “on top of” another component may include a situation where the preceding component is directly on the following component (e.g., in physical contact with the following component), and a situation where one or more intervening components are located between the preceding and following components.

The drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale. Due to manufacturing processes and tolerances, the processes presented in this disclosure may differ from actual apparatus. Other embodiments of this disclosure may not be specifically described. The specification and drawings should be considered illustrative rather than restrictive. Modifications may be made to adapt particular circumstances, materials, compositions, methods, or processes to the purpose, spirit, and scope of this disclosure. All such modifications will fall within the scope of the appended claims. Although the methods disclosed herein are described by performing specific operations in a specific order, it should be understood that these operations can be combined, subdivided, or reordered to form equivalent methods without departing from the teachings of this disclosure.
