Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of semiconductor integrated circuit manufacturing, and in particular to an insulated gate field effect transistor (IGBT) device; the present application also relates to a manufacturing method of the IGBT device. BACKGROUND
[0002] IGBT is a bipolar device, and because of its current amplification feature, IGBT achieves excellent on-state voltage drop in the medium and high voltage field; and because of its voltage control feature, the driving circuit of IGBT is easier to realize than another bipolar device BJT.
[0003] N-doped drift region.
[0004] P+ doped collector region is located at the back of the drift region, and usually, there is also an N-doped buffer layer between the drift region and the collector region.
[0005] There is an N-doped carrier storage layer with a higher doping concentration than the drift region on the top of the drift region.
[0006] A P-doped body region (Pbody) is formed on the top of the carrier storage layer.
[0007] A trench gate passes through the body region, and the trench gate includes a gate oxide layer formed on the inner side surface of the gate trench and a gate conductive material layer such as a polysilicon gate filled in the gate trench.
[0008] There is an N+ doped emitter region formed on the surface of the body region, and the emitter region is self-aligned with the side surface of the trench gate.
[0009] There is also a P+ doped body lead-out region formed on the surface of the body region.
[0010] There is an emitter composed of a front metal layer formed on the front surface of the emitter region and the body lead-out region. There is a gate composed of a front metal layer formed on the front surface of the polysilicon gate.
[0011] There is a collector composed of a back metal layer formed on the back surface of the collector region.
[0012] In the application topology of IGBT, the device often works in a high voltage and large current state at the same time, which is called short circuit. Taking a 1200V 100A IGBT as an example, when it is in a short circuit state, the voltage between the collector and the emitter is about 600V-800V, and the collector current is much higher than 100A, which can reach thousands of amperes. The voltage of the collector is much higher than that of the emitter, and at this time the IGBT works in the saturation region.
[0013] In saturation state, the MOS channel of IGBT is pinched off, the carrier drift velocity in the pinched-off region reaches saturation, which results in saturation of the channel electron current, and then the current flowing through the IGBT also reaches saturation. Therefore, in saturation state, as long as the voltage difference between the gate and the emitter is unchanged, the saturation current will not change obviously when the collector voltage rises or falls. Therefore, the voltage and current borne by the IGBT in short-circuit process are the bus voltage and the saturation current in the corresponding state, respectively.
[0014] In short-circuit state, high voltage and large current cause the IGBT to generate great power, which can cause the device to heat up sharply and burn out in a very short time. Therefore, the short-circuit capability of the IGBT is usually defined as a certain maintenance time or maintenance power during which the device can work normally in short-circuit state, for example, the short-circuit time can be required to be greater than 10 us, and the IGBT can still work normally after the 10 us short-circuit state ends.
[0015] The method for improving the short-circuit capability of the IGBT is mainly to reduce the short-circuit power of the IGBT. In the case that the bus voltage of the IGBT is unchanged, this means reducing the saturation current. A common method for reducing the saturation current is to control the channel density of the IGBT, but this method has the disadvantage of affecting the on-state voltage drop of the IGBT. SUMMARY
[0016] The technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide an IGBT device capable of reducing the saturation current of the device and thereby improving the short-circuit capability of the device, while not changing the channel density of the device, so as not to affect the on-state voltage drop of the device.

[0059] The structure of the body region is specially set in the present application, and the body region is formed by the superposition of the body region injection zones formed by two or more times of body region injection. The threshold voltage setting structure and the short circuit capability improving structure are formed at the same time by the superposition of the body region injection zones. The threshold voltage setting structure is formed by making the total implant dose of each time of body region injection meet the requirement of threshold voltage. On this basis, the superposition of each time of body region injection zone can increase the body region junction depth and the conductive channel length. The increase of the conductive channel length can reduce the saturation current to improve the short circuit capability of the device, so as to realize the short circuit capability improving structure. Therefore, the present application can reduce the saturation current of the device, and further reduce the heat power in the short circuit process, so as to increase the short circuit time and improve the short circuit capability of the device.
[0060] Meanwhile, since the application only needs to set the process structure of the body region to reduce the saturation current, and does not need to reduce the saturation current by reducing the channel density, the setting of the channel density is not limited by the reduction of the saturation current, so that the channel density can adapt to the requirement of improving the on-voltage drop of the device, and the application can also not change the channel density of the device, thereby not affecting the on-voltage drop of the device, and finally improving the comprehensive performance of the device and expanding the application range.

[0083] The emitter region 107 and the body lead-out region 108 are connected with the emitter composed of the front metal layer 109.
[0084] The gate conductive material layer 106 is connected with the gate composed of the front metal layer 109. Figure 1 In the cross-sectional structure, only the front metal layer 109 corresponding to the emitter is shown, and the front metal layer 109 corresponding to the gate is not shown.

[0090] The embodiment of the present application specially sets the structure of the body region 103, and the body region 103 is formed by the superposition of body region injection regions formed by two or more times of body region injection. The superposition of the body region injection regions is used to form the threshold voltage setting structure and the short circuit capability improving structure. The threshold voltage setting structure is formed by making the sum of the injection dose of each time of body region injection meet the threshold voltage requirement. On this basis, the superposition of each time of body region injection region can increase the junction depth of the body region 103 and the conductive channel length. The increased conductive channel length can be used to reduce the saturation current to improve the short circuit capability of the device, thereby realizing the short circuit capability improving structure. Therefore, the embodiment of the present application can reduce the saturation current of the device, and further reduce the heat power in the short circuit process, thereby increasing the short circuit time and improving the short circuit capability of the device.
[0091] Meanwhile, since the embodiment of the present application only needs to set the process structure of the body region 103 to reduce the saturation current, and does not need to reduce the saturation current by reducing the channel density, the setting of the channel density is not limited by the reduction of the saturation current, so that the channel density can adapt to the requirement of improving the on-voltage drop of the device. Therefore, the embodiment of the present application can also not change the channel density of the device, thereby not affecting the on-voltage drop of the device, and finally improving the comprehensive performance of the device and expanding the application range.
[0092] As shown in Figure 2 , it is a flow chart of the manufacturing method of the IGBT device of the embodiment of the present application. The structure of the formed IGBT device is shown in Figure 1 ; the manufacturing method of the IGBT device of the embodiment of the present application includes the following steps:
[0093] Step one, providing a semiconductor substrate, forming a drift region 101 composed of a first conductive type lightly doped region on the surface of the semiconductor substrate.
[0094] The method of the embodiment of the present application further comprises a first conductive type doped carrier storage layer 102 formed on the top of the drift region 101 and at the bottom of the body region 103 after the formation of the drift region 101 and before the formation of the body region 103, wherein the doping concentration of the carrier storage layer 102 is greater than the doping concentration of the drift region 101.
[0095] Step two, forming a body region 103 of the second conductive type on the surface of the drift region 101, comprising the following steps:
[0096] Step 21, setting the total injection dose of the body region 103 according to the threshold voltage requirement value satisfied by the threshold voltage of the IGBT device.
[0097] Step 22, splitting the total injection dose into a plurality of single injection doses.

[0123] Setting a plurality of implant dose sums and corresponding single implant doses for each implant dose sum; and taking one implant dose sum and corresponding single implant doses as a group of implant conditions.
[0124] The injection energy in each group of injection conditions is set, and the body region with the same sequence number in each group of injection conditions is injected with the same corresponding injection energy.
[0125] Simulation is performed to obtain simulation values of the saturation current, threshold voltage and on-state voltage drop of the IGBT device corresponding to each group of injection conditions. The simulation values are shown in Table 1 described later.
[0126] According to the simulation values of the saturation current, threshold voltage and on-state voltage drop of the IGBT device, the injection dose sum of at least one group of injection conditions and the corresponding single injection dose of each time are selected as the injection dose sum and the single injection dose of each time used in step 2.

[0128] The embodiment method of the present application forms the Pbody (body region 103) by performing multiple injections, increases the length of the channel (conductive channel) and the threshold voltage, and reduces the saturation current of the IGBT.
[0129] As shown in Table 1 below, the structure of a 1200V 100A pitch 3μm IGBT is simulated and analyzed, and the effects of different Pbody process conditions on the parameters such as the saturation current, threshold voltage and on-state voltage drop of the device are compared.
[0130] Table 1
[0131]
[0132] In Table 1, the numbers 1 to 6 represent the numbers of the six groups of injection conditions. The Pbody1 injection condition table shows the injection conditions of the first body region injection, the Pbody2 injection condition table shows the injection conditions of the second body region injection, and the body region 103 corresponds to two times of body region injection. The injection energy and injection dose given in the injection conditions of the two times of body region injection are, for example, in the Pbody1 injection condition of number 1, 80keV represents the injection energy, and 2.7e13 cm -2 represents the injection dose; the Pbody2 injection condition is 0, which means that the second body region injection is not performed, which means that the injection condition corresponding to number 1 is the injection condition corresponding to the existing method, which is used for comparison with the subsequent five injection conditions in order to select the injection conditions required by the embodiment method of the present application. In numbers 2 to 5, the injection energy of the first body region injection is 80keV, and the injection energy of the second body region injection is 150keV, and the injection energy of the second time is larger.
[0133] Comparing the injection conditions of No. 1 and No. 2, we can see that the total injection dose of the two body injections of No. 2 is 3.0e13 cm -2 , which is greater than 2.7e13 cm of No. 1 -2 Finally, the threshold voltage corresponding to number 2 will increase, for example, to 7.0V, but the saturation current will decrease, for example, to 674A.
[0134] like Figure 3 2 is a saturation current curve 201 formed under various injection conditions in the simulation steps of the method for manufacturing an IGBT device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Curve 201 is obtained based on the saturation current corresponding to numbers 1 to 6 in Table 1.
[0135] The simulation results in Table 1 compare the effects of single or double injections (different injection energies for the two Pbody injections, with the second injection energy being greater than the first) and the Pbody dose on different static parameters. -2 and 150KeV / 1.5e13cm -2 ) and an increase in the Pbody dose, compared to a single Pbody implant, the saturation current is reduced by over 26%, the threshold voltage (Vth) increases by no more than 8%, and the on-state voltage drop (Vcesat) increases by no more than 2.5%. If the Pbody dose or number of implants continues to increase, the product's threshold voltage and on-state voltage drop will continue to increase. Therefore, simulation results can be used to select suitable or optimal implant conditions for the body region 103.
[0136] In the method of the embodiment of the present invention, Pbody injection can be performed 2 to 3 times, and the total Pbody dose is greater than the Pbody dose when only one injection is performed, and is approximately 1.2 to 1.5 times that of a single injection. The injection energy of each of the multiple Pbody injections is different, and the second injection energy is approximately 1.5 to 2 times the first injection energy; the third injection energy is approximately 2.5 to 3.5 times the first injection energy. The Vth range needs to be controlled during multiple Pbody injections, and the Vth should be controlled within a reasonable application range. For 650V / 1200V IGBTs, the Vth should be controlled below 8.0V.
[0137] Finally, by adopting the method of the embodiment of the present invention, the saturation current of the IGBT can be controlled, thereby reducing the heat power generated by the IGBT during the short-circuit process, and increasing the short-circuit time and short-circuit capacity.
[0138] The application is described in detail above with specific examples, but these do not constitute a limitation on the application. Those skilled in the art can make many modifications and improvements without departing from the principles of the application, and these should be considered as within the scope of the application.
