[0071] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0072] The terms "first," "second," "third," "fourth," and the like (if any) in the description and claims of the present invention and in the accompanying drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a particular order or precedence. It should be understood that the terms used in this manner are interchangeable where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having," as well as any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, e.g., a process, method, system, product, or apparatus comprising a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not explicitly listed or that are inherent to these processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0073] Traditional SiC Trench MOSFET device manufacturing methods include:

[0074] 1. Provide a substrate;

[0075] 2. Forming a buffer layer, an epitaxial layer, and an oxide layer on the substrate in sequence; sequentially implanting body ions and source ions into the surface layer of the epitaxial layer, so that a body ion implantation layer and a source ion implantation layer are sequentially formed in the surface layer of the epitaxial layer; and sequentially forming a p-type ion implantation layer and a p+-type ion implantation layer in the body ion implantation layer, the source ion implantation layer, and the epitaxial layer at the edges;

[0076] 3. Etching the body ion implantation layer, source ion implantation layer and epitaxial layer to form a gate trench;

[0077] 4. Implanting p-type ions at the bottom of the gate trench to form a bottom protective layer, or depositing a gate oxide material at the bottom to form a bottom gate oxide layer; wherein the thickness of the bottom gate oxide layer is 10-200 nm;

[0078] 5. Form a gate oxide layer, a gate electrode, an interlayer dielectric layer, an adhesive layer and a metal layer.

[0079] In traditional SiC Trench MOSFET device manufacturing methods, the bottom gate oxide layer is formed after the gate trench is formed. Due to the deep gate trench, the thickness of the gate oxide material deposited in the deep gate trench is limited. Therefore, the bottom gate oxide layer formed by traditional technical means is limited in thickness and cannot achieve the purpose of protecting the weaker bottom of the device.

[0080] In view of this, the inventors of the present application formed epitaxial layers in steps. First, a first epitaxial layer was formed on a buffer layer, a groove was formed in the first epitaxial layer, and a gate oxide material was deposited in the groove to form a bottom gate oxide layer. Then, a second epitaxial layer and other structural layers were grown. Since the groove depth is small, a thicker bottom gate oxide layer can be formed in the first epitaxial layer. The thickness of the formed bottom gate oxide layer can reach 200-500nm.

[0081] It can be seen that the technical solution provided by this application can solve the technical problem that the thickness of the bottom gate oxide cannot meet the requirements of device performance, and thus solves the problem of low device breakdown voltage caused by the bottom gate oxide thickness not meeting the requirements in traditional technical means, thereby achieving protection of the device.

[0082] The following specific embodiments are used to describe the technical solution of the present invention in detail. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described in detail in some embodiments.

[0083] Please refer to Figures 1-9 ,in, Figure 1 The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a SiC Trench MOSFET device, comprising:

[0084] S11: providing a substrate 101;

[0085] S12: forming a buffer layer 102, a first epitaxial layer 103, and a first gate oxide layer 104 in sequence on the substrate 101; wherein the first epitaxial layer 103 includes a groove; and the first gate oxide layer 104 is formed in the groove;

[0086] S13: forming a second epitaxial layer 117, a body ion implantation layer 105, a source ion implantation layer 106, a p-type ion implantation layer 109, a p+ type ion implantation layer 108, a second gate oxide layer 111, a gate trench, a gate 112, an interlayer dielectric layer 113, a contact hole 115 and a metal layer 116; wherein the second epitaxial layer 117 is formed on the first epitaxial layer 103; the body ion implantation layer 105 and the source ion implantation layer 106 are sequentially formed on the surface of the second epitaxial layer 117; A gate trench is formed at the top of the first gate oxide layer 104 and penetrates the second epitaxial layer 117, the body ion implantation layer 105 and the source ion implantation layer 106; the second gate oxide layer 111 is formed on the sidewalls of the gate trench and the surface of the first gate oxide layer 104; the gate 112 is formed in the gate trench; the p-type ion implantation layer 109 is formed in a portion of the second epitaxial layer 117 and a portion of the body ion implantation layer 105 on both sides of the first gate oxide layer 104; the p+ type ion implantation layer 108 is formed at the top of the p-type ion implantation layer 109 and penetrates the source ion implantation layer 106; the interlayer dielectric layer 113 is formed at the top of the gate 112 and spans the gate 112; the metal layer 116 is formed in the contact hole 115 and surrounds the interlayer dielectric layer 113; Figure 9 As shown;

[0087] The thickness of the formed first gate oxide layer 104 is 200-500 nm. The first oxide layer 107 with a thickness within the range of 200-500 nm can withstand a higher gate voltage and protect the bottom of the gate trench.

[0088] The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a SiC Trench MOSFET device, wherein a first epitaxial layer 103 and a second epitaxial layer 117 are sequentially formed by step-by-step epitaxy, and a first gate oxide layer 104 is simultaneously formed, and then other structural layers are formed. The first gate oxide layer 104 is formed in a groove in the surface layer of the first epitaxial layer 103. The process of forming the first gate oxide layer 104 by step-by-step epitaxy specifically includes: first, forming the first epitaxial layer 103 on the buffer layer 102, wherein the surface layer of the first epitaxial layer 103 includes a groove, and depositing a gate oxide material in the groove to form the first gate oxide layer 104; second, growing the second epitaxial layer 117 and other structural layers; wherein, due to the small depth of the groove, a first gate oxide layer 104 with a large thickness (200-500nm) can be formed in the first epitaxial layer 103.

[0089] It can be seen that the technical solution provided in the present application solves the technical problem that the thickness of the first gate oxide layer 104 formed cannot meet the device performance requirements through step-by-step epitaxy, and further solves the problem of low device breakdown voltage caused by the bottom gate oxide thickness not meeting the requirements, thereby achieving the technical effect of effectively protecting the relatively weak trench bottom of the SiC Trench MOSFET device.

[0090] In one embodiment, in step S13, after forming the contact hole 115 in the interlayer dielectric layer 113, the step further includes:

[0091] An adhesive layer 114 is formed; the adhesive layer 114 surrounds the interlayer dielectric layer 113 and covers the bottom of the contact hole 115 ; and the metal layer 116 is formed on the adhesive layer 114 .

[0092] In one embodiment, step S12, sequentially forming a buffer layer 102, a first epitaxial layer 103, and a first gate oxide layer 104 on the substrate 101, specifically includes:

[0093] S121: forming the buffer layer 102 and the first epitaxial layer 103 in sequence on the substrate 101;

[0094] S122: depositing a first hard mask on the first epitaxial layer 103; S123: forming a patterned first hard mask, and etching the first epitaxial layer 103 using the patterned first hard mask as a mask to form the groove in the first epitaxial layer 103;

[0095] S124: depositing a gate oxide material in the groove and on the surface of the first epitaxial layer 103; specifically, depositing the gate oxide material by thermal oxidation or depositing an oxide layer, or by a combination of thermal oxidation and depositing an oxide layer;

[0096] S125: etching away the gate oxide material on the surface of the first epitaxial layer 103 to form the first gate oxide layer 104 in the groove. Figure 2 shown.

[0097] Since the gate material in the center of the groove is lower than the edge of the groove after the gate material is filled in the groove and before the gate material is etched, the gate oxide material in the groove is rounded under isotropic etching, forming a bottom arc. Figure 3 As shown;

[0098] After the gate oxide material in the groove is rounded, the surface of the formed first gate oxide layer 104 is arc-shaped; compared with the horizontal surface of the first oxide layer 107, the arc-shaped surface of the first oxide layer 107 makes the bottom electric field of the device more gentle, which is beneficial to increase the breakdown voltage of the device and improve the reliability of the device;

[0099] The technical solution provided by the present invention forms the first oxide layer by depositing gate oxide material. Compared with the prior art method of forming the bottom gate oxide by injecting ions, the method of depositing gate oxide material to form the first oxide layer is more controllable and has fewer device defects. Furthermore, the first oxide layer can better improve the ability of the trench bottom to resist electric field concentration, thereby improving the breakdown voltage and reliability of the device.

[0116] In a specific embodiment, the material of the first epitaxial layer and the second epitaxial layer is SIC. When the material of the first epitaxial layer and the second epitaxial layer is SIC, carbon may be deposited on the surfaces of the first epitaxial layer and the second epitaxial layer at high temperature, thereby causing defects. Therefore, to prevent carbon deposition on the surfaces of the first epitaxial layer and the second epitaxial layer, the steps before S1341 include: depositing a carbon film, performing ion activation, and removing the carbon film; S1342: depositing a gate material on the surface of the gate oxide material 110; the gate material covers the surface of the gate oxide material 110 and fills the gate trench;
