[0058] 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.

[0059] 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.

[0060] In SGT / Trench MOS products, due to the presence of the trench, a seam will inevitably form below the top of the trench during polysilicon formation. This seam will be magnified during polysilicon etching, making it impossible to make the shield gate into a flat surface, thus affecting device performance.

[0061] In order to solve this problem, in the existing technical means, when filling polysilicon, in order to adapt to the non-flat surface of the shielding gate and ensure the filling effect of polysilicon, the trench angle of the device is usually controlled to be less than 89 degrees (that is, the angle of the top of the gate made on the top of the shielding gate is less than 89°), which results in the thickness of the bottom polysilicon shielding gate being smaller in the non-right-angle trench filling, which reduces the charge coupling ability of the device. Therefore, in the case of lateral two-dimensional charge-coupled devices, in order to avoid gaps, the width of the gate trench is usually made larger, so that the device size will be further increased while ensuring the distance between the two adjacent shielding gates. In traditional SGT / Trench MOS products, the SGT size is between 0.8-1.2um.

[0062] As can be seen, the technical problems existing in the prior art are: the shield gate surface is uneven, with a severe V-shaped morphology; and to accommodate the gap in the shield gate, the device trench angle (i.e., the angle of the gate tip after the shield gate is formed in the gate trench) is reduced from 90° to below 89°, making it impossible to form a right-angled trench. The shield gate width is increased, thus causing problems in reducing the feature size of the device. Furthermore, the conventional process method, when depositing the inter-gate oxide layer, has a large depth-to-width ratio in the cavity portion at the top of the gate trench, resulting in poor quality of the inter-gate oxide layer and greater process difficulty.

[0063] In view of this, the inventors of the present application form the epitaxial layer in steps. First, a first epitaxial layer and a shallower trench are formed to fill the shielding gate and the inter-gate oxide layer; secondly, a second epitaxial layer and a top trench are formed to fill the gate; since the gate trench is formed in steps, the shielding gate and the inter-gate oxide layer are formed in the shallower trench; not only can a shielding gate with a flat surface be formed, but also the technical effect of ensuring that the device has better electrical properties is achieved; and finally a surface flatness angle is formed at the top of the gate, so that the trench angle can be 90°, avoiding the production of a wider shielding gate. Compared with the existing technology, the feature size is reduced, so that the device size can be further reduced when the distance between the gate trenches is constant; further, because the device greatly reduces the aspect ratio of IPO filling, the IPO filling process becomes particularly simple, thereby solving the problem of IPO filling process.

[0064] 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.

[0065] Please refer to Figures 1-10 According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method for preparing an SGT mosfet device is provided. The flow chart of the method for preparing an SGT mosfet device is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

Figure 2 As shown;

[0068] S13: forming an inter-gate oxide layer, a second epitaxial layer 106, a second field oxide layer 108 and a gate 109; wherein the second epitaxial layer 106 is formed on the top of the first epitaxial layer 102; the inter-gate oxide layer is formed in the cavity; the gate 109 is formed on the top of the inter-gate oxide layer; the second field oxide layer 108 is formed between the gate 109 and the second epitaxial layer 106, as shown in FIG. Figure 8As shown;

[0069] S14: forming an interlayer dielectric layer 112, a body ion implantation region 110, a source ion implantation region 111, and a contact hole; wherein the body ion implantation region 110 and the source ion implantation region 111 are sequentially formed in the second epitaxial layer 106 around the gate 109 in a direction away from the first epitaxial layer 102; the interlayer dielectric layer 112 is formed on the surface of the gate 109 and the source ion implantation region 111; the contact hole penetrates the interlayer dielectric layer 112, the body ion implantation region 110, and a portion of the source ion implantation region 111, and the device after the interlayer dielectric layer 112 is formed is as follows: Figure 9 As shown, the device after forming the contact hole is as follows Figure 10 shown.

[0070] After step S14, the process further includes forming a passivation layer 113; the passivation layer 113 covers the interlayer dielectric layer 112 and the source ion implantation region 111. Figure 10 shown.

[0071] The technical solution provided by the present invention forms an epitaxial layer in steps, specifically including the following steps: a first step: forming a first epitaxial layer and a first gate trench, wherein the first gate trench is used to fill a shielding gate, wherein the portion of the cavity at the top of the first gate trench not filled by the shielding gate is used to fill an intergate oxide layer; a second step: forming a second epitaxial layer and a second gate trench, wherein the second gate trench is used to fill a gate; because the gate trenches are formed in steps, it can be seen that the shielding gate, the intergate oxide layer, and the gate are all formed in relatively shallow trenches; thus, a shielding gate, an intergate oxide layer, and a gate with a flat top and no gaps can be formed. Compared with the prior art, there is no need to increase the width of the shielding gate to balance the gaps at the top. Therefore, while ensuring the distance between the gate trenches, the characteristic size of the SGT MOSFET device can be further reduced, thereby achieving a reduction in the size of the SGT MOSFET device. Therefore, the technical solution provided by the present invention solves the problem of how to reduce the characteristic size of the SGT MOSFET device.

[0072] Furthermore, since the inter-gate oxide layer does not shield the partial cavity of the gate at the top of the first gate trench, the aspect ratio of the inter-gate oxide layer filling is greatly reduced compared with the existing technology, so the process of filling the inter-gate oxide layer becomes particularly simple. Therefore, the technical solution provided by the present invention also solves the problem of the inter-gate oxide layer filling process.
