Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of semiconductor technology, and in particular relates to a super junction semiconductor device and a manufacturing method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Power MOS (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor) devices are widely used in power systems due to their superior characteristics (unipolarity + gate voltage control + negative temperature coefficient, etc.). Energy loss needs to be controlled during power processing, and the conduction loss requires a lower on-resistance of power MOS devices. As high-power systems have higher requirements for breakdown voltage, the specific on-resistance (R ON,SP ) and breakdown voltage (BV) have a contradictory relationship R ON,SP ∝ BV 2.4-2.6 , that is, the specific on-resistance increases exponentially with the increase of breakdown voltage. Traditional power MOS has a "silicon limit". Super junction power MOS devices use a new voltage-resistant layer structure and use alternating P-type and N-type semiconductor regions to form a charge compensation structure to break through the so-called silicon limit problem in the field of ordinary power MOS devices in the industry, and then achieve a higher breakdown voltage and lower specific on-resistance in the drift region of the N-type semiconductor region with a higher doping concentration.
[0003] Conventional superjunction MOS devices consist of a cell region, a transition region, and a terminal region. As mentioned in the literature (Z. Fan, Z.Chu, J. Luo, G. Cao, and S. Liao, “Study of Reliability in SuperjunctionPower VDMOSFE”), the transition region and the terminal region are more susceptible to the interface positive charge from the surface field oxide layer (the surface positive charge comes from the back-end process and packaging process), and the device withstand voltage characteristics are easily affected by the charge imbalance, which is manifested as the avalanche breakdown point occurring in advance in the transition region and the terminal region, and the surface electric field of the device in the transition region and the terminal region will increase due to the charge imbalance effect, which will lead to walk-out phenomenon and reliability problems. In addition, the reference (K.Takahashi, H. Kuribayashi, T. Kawashima, S. Wakimoto, K. Mochizuki and H.Nakazawa, "20 mΩ∙cm 2660V Super Junction MOSFETs Fabricated by Deep TrenchEtching and Epitaxial Growth7") mentioned that the field oxide layer in the transition region and the terminal region is generally formed by thermal oxidation, which is easy to form an accumulation effect of surface doping concentration during the thermal oxidation process, which will further aggravate the charge imbalance problem in the transition region and the terminal region. Under high voltage and high current applications, it is more beneficial for the application of the device if the breakdown occurs in a large area of active area, while small current devices are more inclined to breakdown in a larger area of non-active area.
[0004] In order to solve this problem, some solutions are proposed in patent CN117012831A (invention name: a power semiconductor device) and literature (R. Wang, M. Qiao, Y. Wang, Z. Li and B. Zhang, "Novel High-Tolerance Termination With Resistive Field Plate for 600 V SuperJunction Vertical Double-Diffused MOSFET"). However, these solutions have problems such as complex process, difficult processing, and leakage of drain series resistance, which will affect the actual manufacturing and application of superjunction semiconductor devices.
[0005] As mentioned in the literature (Tian Bo, Cheng Xu, Kang Baowei, "The Origin and Development of Superjunction Theory and Its Impact on the Design of High-Voltage MOSFET Devices"), conventional superjunction semiconductor devices still have a disadvantage: the body diode has high reverse hardness. This body diode plays a freewheeling role when working in anti-parallel. The transverse alternating P-type and N-type semiconductor PN structure of the superjunction device will cause the minority carriers stored in the body diode in the forward conduction state to be quickly extracted, which results in poor reverse recovery and other characteristics: higher current peak, greater electromagnetic interference and greater power consumption. Summary of the invention
[0006] In view of the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a super junction semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the same. On the one hand, the present invention is based on a high current application device. In order to transfer the breakdown position to the inside of the cell, the cell region, transition region and terminal region structure of the device are designed so that the longitudinal withstand voltage buffer layer height of the transition region and the terminal region is higher than that of the cell region, so as to improve the breakdown characteristics (obtain a stable avalanche breakdown point), and the high device E ASCharacteristics and reliability. If a small current is used, the same principle can be used with the opposite design direction to achieve the transfer of the breakdown point position. On the other hand, because there is an extra epitaxial layer under the longitudinal voltage-resistant buffer layer of the cell area of the present invention, this epitaxial layer acts as a "semi" super junction structure, which can effectively improve the reverse recovery characteristics of the body diode and further improve the safe working area of the device.
