[0038] As introduced in the background technology, the prior art lacks MOSFET devices suitable for CSP packaging. To solve the above problem, the embodiments of the present application provide a MOSFET device and a method for manufacturing the MOSFET device.

[0039] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0040] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of a MOSFET device according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the MOSFET device includes:

[0041] A substrate 100, wherein the material of the substrate 100 includes silicon carbide;

[0042] The epitaxial layer 101 is located on the surface of the substrate 100;

[0043] A trench gate structure 102 is located in the epitaxial layer 101;

[0044] A source region 103, located in the epitaxial layer and on one side of the trench gate structure in a first direction D1, wherein the first direction D1 is perpendicular to the thickness direction of the substrate, and the doping type of the source region 103 is the same as the doping type of the epitaxial layer;

[0045] A drain region 104, located in the epitaxial layer and on the other side of the trench gate structure in the first direction D1, wherein the doping type of the drain region 104 is the same as the doping type of the epitaxial layer;

[0046] a doping region 105 located in the epitaxial layer and at least partially located on a side of the source region 103 away from the trench gate structure 102 in the first direction D1, wherein the doping type of the doping region 105 is different from the doping type of the epitaxial layer;

[0047] The metal layer 106 is located on the surface of the epitaxial layer away from the substrate. The metal layer 106 includes a source metal portion and a drain metal portion. There is a gap between the source metal portion and the drain metal portion. There is a gap between the orthographic projection of the metal layer 106 on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the trench gate structure on the substrate. The orthographic projection of the source metal portion on the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the source region 103 on the substrate. The orthographic projection of the drain metal portion on the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the drain region 104 on the substrate.

[0048] In practical applications, the epitaxial layer can be a single-layer structure or a multi-layer structure. The trench gate structure is actually a trench gate, which can reduce the on-resistance of the MOSFET device and reduce the area of ​​the chip. The specific positions of the source metal part and the drain metal part can be set arbitrarily, and can be set on the left or right side. The bottom surface of the metal layer is in direct contact with the top surface of the epitaxial layer.

[0049] Through this embodiment, a MOSFET device is provided, including a silicon carbide substrate, an epitaxial layer located on the surface of the substrate, a trench gate structure located in the epitaxial layer, a source region, a drain region and a doped region, and a metal layer located on one side of the epitaxial layer; the source region is located on one side of the trench gate structure in a first direction, and the doping type of the source region is the same as the doping type of the epitaxial layer; the drain region is located on the other side of the trench gate structure in the first direction, and the doping type of the drain region is the same as the doping type of the epitaxial layer; the doped region is at least partially located on the side of the source region away from the trench gate structure in the first direction, and the doping type of the doped region is different from the doping type of the epitaxial layer; the metal layer includes a source metal part and a drain metal part, there is a gap between the source metal part and the drain metal part, there is a gap between the orthographic projection of the metal layer on the substrate and the orthographic projection of the trench gate structure on the substrate, the orthographic projection of the source metal part on the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the source region on the substrate, and the orthographic projection of the drain metal part on the substrate at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the drain region on the substrate. On the one hand, by arranging the source metal part and the drain metal part on the surface of the same side of the MOSFET device, it can be ensured that the surface through-holes of the device are directly connected when CSP packaging is performed. On the other hand, by isolating the source metal part and the drain metal part through the trench gate structure, the current path length between the source and the drain can be increased, and the length of the voltage-resistant layer between the source and the drain can be increased in disguise, which can avoid the problem of increased device size caused by increased thickness of the voltage-resistant layer of the MOSFET device, and further meet the requirements of small size of CSP packaging. The problem of how MOSFET devices in the prior art are suitable for CSP packaging requirements is solved.

[0050] In a specific embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the MOSFET device further includes: a doping portion 107, which is located in the epitaxial layer 101 and is located on the surface of the trench gate structure 102 close to the substrate 100. The remaining source region 103, drain region 104, doping region 105 and metal layer 106 are located at the same position as the source region 103, drain region 104, doping region 105 and metal layer 106. Figure 1 By providing the above-mentioned doping part, the problem of easy breakdown of the bottom of the trench gate structure can be prevented, and the performance of the MOSFET device can be further improved.

[0051] In the prior art, since the oxidation rate of the bottom of the trench of the trench MOSFET device is much lower than the oxidation rate of the trench sidewall during the gate oxide preparation process, the gate oxide quality of the bottom of the trench is poor, the electric field concentration is prone to occur at the corner of the bottom of the trench, and the device breakdown characteristics are deteriorated. By providing a doping portion at the bottom of the trench gate structure, the doping concentration of the channel region can be increased, the electrical characteristics of the bottom of the trench can be improved, the current concentration at the bottom of the channel can be reduced, and the intensity of the electric field can be reduced, and the breakdown voltage of the channel can be increased, thereby reducing the breakdown risk.

[0052] In order to further improve the bidirectional conduction capability of the MOSFET device in the first direction, as Figure 3 As shown, the doping region 105 includes: a first sub-doping region 108, which is located on the side of the source region 103 away from the trench gate structure 102 in the first direction D1; a second sub-doping region 109, which is located on the side of the trench gate structure in the first direction D1, the first sub-doping region 108 and the second sub-doping region 109 are located on the same side of the trench gate structure, and in the second direction D2, the second sub-doping region 109 is located on the side of the first sub-doping region 108 close to the substrate, and the first sub-doping region 108 and the second sub-doping region 109 have the same doping type. The positions of the remaining drain region 104, the metal layer 106 and the doping portion 107 are arranged in the same manner as above. Figure 2 , I will not go into details here.

[0053] Specifically, the epitaxial layer wraps the bottom and the sidewall of one side of the trench gate structure, the second sub-doping region is formed on the side of the trench gate structure, and the first sub-doping region is formed on the surface of the second sub-doping region. In an N-channel MOSFET device, the P-type second sub-doping region can form a PN junction with the source metal part and the drain metal part, so that the current can flow bidirectionally between the source metal part and the drain metal part. Similarly, in a P-channel MOSFET device, the N-type second sub-doping region can form a PN junction with the source metal part and the drain metal part, further realizing the bidirectional conduction capability.

[0054] like Figure 3As shown, the length of the surface of the second sub-doping region 109 close to the substrate 100 from the predetermined surface is a first length L1, the length of the surface of the trench gate structure 102 close to the substrate 100 from the predetermined surface is a second length L2, the first length L1 is greater than the second length L2, the predetermined surface is the surface of the substrate 100 close to the epitaxial layer 101, the surface of the source region away from the substrate 100, the surface of the drain region 104 away from the substrate 100, the surface of the first sub-doping region 108 away from the substrate 100, and the surface of the trench gate structure 102 away from the substrate 100 are flush. The above arrangement can further reduce the size of the MOSFET device, thereby improving the integration of the device.

[0055] Specifically, L1 being greater than L2 indicates that the depth of the second sub-doping region is less than the depth of the trench. When the depth of the well region is small, the distance between the channel region and the source and drain increases, thereby reducing the leakage current, and also helping to reduce the size of the MOSFET device, thereby improving the integration. In addition, the upper surface of the trench gate is flush with the upper surface of the epitaxial layer, and the parasitic capacitance between the gate metal part and the drain metal part is reduced, especially in high-frequency applications, because lower parasitic capacitance can improve speed and performance. In addition, the flush surface can also ensure that the channel is formed more evenly around the trench gate, thereby providing better channel control.

[0056] like Figure 4 As shown, the MOSFET device further includes: a dielectric layer 110, which is located on the surface of the epitaxial layer 101 away from the substrate 100, and the dielectric layer 110 includes a plurality of dielectric parts, and there is a gap between two adjacent dielectric parts. The positions of the remaining source region 103, drain region 104, doped region 105, metal layer 106, doped part 107, first sub-doped region 108 and second sub-doped region 109 are arranged in the same manner as Figure 3 The above arrangement can further realize effective isolation of the source metal portion and the drain metal portion.

[0057] Specifically, the dielectric layer is used to isolate adjacent source metal parts and drain metal parts.

[0058] In some other embodiments, Figure 5As shown, the trench gate structure 102 includes: at least one conductive dielectric layer 112, located in the epitaxial layer 101; a gate oxide layer 113, located on both sides of the conductive dielectric layer 112 in a first direction D1, and located on a side of the conductive dielectric layer 112 close to the substrate 100 in a second direction D2. The first direction D1 is perpendicular to the thickness direction of the MOSFET device, and the second direction D2 is perpendicular to the first direction. The remaining source region 103, drain region 104, doped region 105, metal layer 106, doped portion 107, first sub-doped region 108, second sub-doped region 109 and dielectric layer 110 are connected to the substrate 100. Figure 4 The above-mentioned trench gate structure can further realize the transmission of gate signals.

[0059] Specifically, the conductive dielectric layer is used to transmit gate signals, and the material of the conductive dielectric layer can be polysilicon. Since polysilicon has good conductivity, it is very suitable as a conductive path for transmitting gate signals. In addition, compared with other possible gate materials (such as metal materials), polysilicon has a lower cost, which helps to reduce the production cost of MOSFET devices.

[0060] In other embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, there are a plurality of the conductive dielectric layers 112, and the plurality of the conductive dielectric layers 112 are arranged at intervals along the first direction D1. The remaining substrate 100, epitaxial layer 101, trench gate structure 102, source region 103, drain region 104, doped region 105, metal layer 106, doped portion 107, first sub-doped region 108, second sub-doped region 109 and dielectric layer 110 are connected to the substrate 100. Figure 5 The above split gate setting can further adjust the capacitance and dynamic characteristics of the MOSFET device.

[0061] In practical applications, of the two conductive dielectric layers, only the left conductive dielectric layer can be used as the actual gate, and the right conductive dielectric layer can be used as a dummy gate to connect the source signal or float to adjust the capacitance and dynamic characteristics of the MOSFET device. In addition, the number of the conductive dielectric layers is not limited to Figure 6 The number of the conductive medium layers may be two or more than two. The sizes of the intervals between the conductive medium layers may be the same or different.

[0062] like Figure 7As shown, the gate oxide layer 113 includes a first connection portion 114, a second connection portion 115 and a third connection portion 116 connected in sequence, wherein the width of the first connection portion 114 along the first direction D1 is a first width, the width of the second connection portion 115 along the second direction D2 is a second width, the width of the third connection portion 116 along the first direction D1 is a third width, the second width is greater than the first width, and the second width is greater than the third width. The remaining substrate 100, epitaxial layer 101, trench gate structure 102, source region 103, drain region 104, doping region 105, metal layer 106, doping portion 107, first sub-doping region 108, second sub-doping region 109 and dielectric layer 110 and Figure 5 By setting the width of the second connection portion to be greater than the width of the first connection portion, and the width of the second connection portion to be greater than the width of the third connection portion, the problem of easy breakdown of the bottom of the trench gate structure can be prevented, and the performance of the MOSFET device can be further improved.

[0063] In the prior art, since the oxidation rate of the bottom of the trench of the trench MOSFET device is much lower than the oxidation rate of the sidewall of the trench during the gate oxide preparation process, the gate oxide quality of the bottom of the trench is poor, and the electric field concentration is prone to occur at the corner of the bottom of the trench, and the device breakdown characteristics are deteriorated. By providing a thicker gate oxide layer at the bottom of the trench gate structure, the trench gate structure is protected, thereby reducing the risk of breakdown. In addition, the width of the first connecting portion may be the same as or different from the width of the third connecting portion.

[0072] Step S205, forming a trench gate structure 102 in the groove 121, obtaining Fig.10 (e) The structure shown;

[0073] Specifically, the above trench gate structure is actually a trench gate, and the trench gate structure can reduce the on-resistance of the MOSFET device and reduce the area of ​​the chip.

[0074] Step S206, forming a preliminary metal layer 122 on the surface of the trench gate structure 102 away from the substrate 100 and on the surface of the epitaxial layer 101 away from the substrate 100, to obtain Fig.10 (f) The structure shown in FIG. 1 is obtained by removing part of the above-mentioned preliminary metal layer 122, and the remaining above-mentioned preliminary metal layer 122 forms a metal layer 106, and the above-mentioned metal layer 106 includes a source metal portion and a drain metal portion with a gap, so as to obtain Figure 1 The structure shown.

[0075] Specifically, the specific positions of the source metal part and the drain metal part can be set arbitrarily, and can be set on the left side or the right side. The bottom surface of the metal layer is in direct contact with the top surface of the epitaxial layer.

[0076] In this embodiment, a method for manufacturing a MOSFET device is provided. First, a substrate is provided, wherein the material of the substrate includes silicon carbide; a first preliminary epitaxial layer is formed on a surface of one side of the substrate, and the first preliminary epitaxial layer is ion-implanted to obtain a preliminary doping region, and the remaining first preliminary epitaxial layer forms a second preliminary epitaxial layer, wherein the preliminary doping region is located on one side of the second preliminary epitaxial layer in a first direction, and is located on a side of the second preliminary epitaxial layer away from the substrate in a second direction; ion implantation is then performed on the preliminary doping region and the second preliminary epitaxial layer to form a third preliminary epitaxial layer; and then, a portion of the third preliminary epitaxial layer, the preliminary doping region, and the first preliminary epitaxial layer are sequentially removed. The second prepared epitaxial layer, the remaining third prepared epitaxial layer and the remaining prepared doped region form a source region, a drain region and a doped region, the remaining second prepared epitaxial layer forms an epitaxial layer with a groove, the doping type of the source region, the doping type of the drain region and the doping type of the first prepared epitaxial layer are the same, and the doping type of the prepared doped region is different from the doping type of the first prepared epitaxial layer; a trench gate structure is formed in the groove; finally, a prepared metal layer is formed on the surface of the trench gate structure away from the substrate and on the surface of the epitaxial layer away from the substrate, a part of the prepared metal layer is removed, and the remaining prepared metal layer forms a metal layer, and the metal layer includes a source metal part and a drain metal part with an interval. In the above method, on the one hand, by arranging the source metal part and the drain metal part on the surface of the same side of the MOSFET device, it can be ensured that the surface through hole of the device is directly connected when the CSP package is performed. On the other hand, by isolating the source metal part and the drain metal part through the trench gate structure, the current path length between the source and the drain can be increased, and the length of the voltage-resistant layer between the source and the drain can be increased in disguise, which can avoid the problem of increased device size caused by the increase in the thickness of the voltage-resistant layer of the MOSFET device, and further meet the demand for small size of CSP packaging. The problem of how to adapt MOSFET devices to the requirements of CSP packaging in the prior art is solved.

[0077] As an optional solution, after the above step S204 and before the step S205, the above method further includes: step S206, forming a doping portion 107 in the above groove 121, so as to obtain Fig.11 The remaining substrate 100, epitaxial layer 101, source region 103, drain region 104, and doped region 105 are arranged in the same position as Figure 1 The method can prevent the problem of easy breakdown of the bottom of the trench gate structure by setting the above-mentioned doping part, and further improve the performance of the MOSFET device.

[0078] In the prior art, since the oxidation rate of the bottom of the trench of the trench MOSFET device is much lower than the oxidation rate of the trench sidewall during the gate oxide preparation process, the gate oxide quality of the bottom of the trench is poor, the electric field concentration is prone to occur at the corner of the bottom of the trench, and the device breakdown characteristics are deteriorated. By providing a doping portion at the bottom of the trench gate structure, the doping concentration of the channel region can be increased, the electrical characteristics of the bottom of the trench can be improved, the current concentration at the bottom of the channel can be reduced, and the intensity of the electric field can be reduced, and the breakdown voltage of the channel can be increased, thereby reducing the breakdown risk.

[0079] In another embodiment, the above step S205 can also be implemented by the following steps: Step S2051, forming a gate oxide layer 113 on the exposed surface of the above groove 121, Fig.12 Step S2052, forming a conductive dielectric layer 112 on the exposed surface of the gate oxide layer 113, and obtaining Fig.13 The positions of the substrate 100, the epitaxial layer 101, the source region 103, the drain region 104, the first sub-doping region 108 and the second sub-doping region 109 are arranged in the same manner as Figure 1 This method can further realize the transmission of gate signals.

[0080] Specifically, the conductive dielectric layer is used to transmit gate signals, and the material of the conductive dielectric layer can be polysilicon. Since polysilicon has good conductivity, it is very suitable as a conductive path for transmitting gate signals. In addition, compared with other possible gate materials (such as metal materials), the cost of polysilicon is lower, which helps to reduce the production cost of MOSFET devices. In addition, the number of the conductive dielectric layer 112 can also be multiple, such as Fig.14 As shown, the sizes of the intervals between the multiple conductive medium layers 112 can be the same or different.

[0081] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the present application achieve the following technical effects:

On the one hand, by arranging the source metal part and the drain metal part on the surface of the same side of the MOSFET device, it can be ensured that the surface through-holes of the device are directly connected when CSP packaging is performed. On the other hand, by isolating the source metal part and the drain metal part through the trench gate structure, the current path length between the source and the drain can be increased, and the length of the voltage-resistant layer between the source and the drain can be increased in disguise, which can avoid the problem of increased device size caused by increased thickness of the voltage-resistant layer of the MOSFET device, and further meet the requirements of small size of CSP packaging.

In the above method, on the one hand, by arranging the source metal part and the drain metal part on the surface of the same side of the MOSFET device, it can be ensured that the surface through hole of the device is directly connected when the CSP package is performed. On the other hand, by isolating the source metal part and the drain metal part through the trench gate structure, the current path length between the source and the drain can be increased, and the length of the voltage-resistant layer between the source and the drain can be increased in disguise, which can avoid the problem of increased device size caused by the increase in the thickness of the voltage-resistant layer of the MOSFET device, and further meet the demand for small size of CSP packaging.
