Description

[0002] At present, SiC power MOSFET, as an important SiC power device, is widely used in power electronic systems due to its advantages such as simple gate drive circuit, high operating frequency, high power density and high conversion efficiency.

[0003] For example, 4H-SiC MOSFET has made remarkable progress in research at home and abroad. For example, CN109616523A discloses a 4H-SiC MOSFET power device and its manufacturing method, which includes: source, SiO2 interlayer dielectric, gate, gate oxide layer, P+ contact region, N+ source region, P well, additionally injected P-type region, N-type epitaxial layer, N- epitaxial layer, buffer layer, N+ substrate and drain.

[0004] However, 4H-SiC MOSFET devices still need further adjustments in terms of SiO2 / SiC interface quality, gate voltage stability, high-reliability terminal structure design, more reliable ohmic contact preparation process and higher parameter device design requirements.

[0240] The epitaxial structure for MOSFET obtained in the above embodiment is subjected to performance testing, and the threshold voltage is tested according to GB / T29332-2012;

[0241] The channel mobility is tested according to the following process: the epitaxial structure is assembled into a power device, and the process includes: after the bare chip is cleaned, the alignment mark is made, and then three ion implantation processes are made, which are ion implantation of P-well, N+ and P+ regions, wherein the P-well and P+ regions are P-type doped, using Al ion implantation, and the maximum ion implantation energy is 350keV and 90keV respectively; the N+ region is N-type implanted, using N ion implantation, and the maximum implantation energy is 80keV. All ion implantations are carried out at 500℃. After the ion implantation is completed, a carbon film (thickness of 50nm) is sputtered on the surface, and then ion implantation activation annealing is carried out at a temperature of 1650℃ for 30min. After removing the carbon film, the gate oxide layer is grown, and at a temperature of 1250℃, NO annealing is first carried out on the surface of the sample for 1h, then oxidation is carried out in dry oxygen, and finally annealing is carried out in NO for 1h. The thickness of the final gate oxide layer is 60nm through CV testing. Next, a layer of Al metal is deposited, and then a gate pattern is formed through a photolithography etching process. The metal used for the drain ohmic contact is Ni (200nm), and the drain ohmic contact is formed by rapid thermal annealing at 1000℃ / 3min. The metal used for the source ohmic contact is Ti / Al / N (50nm / 100nm / 43nm), and the source ohmic contact is formed by rapid thermal annealing at 900℃ / 5min. The next step is to deposit a layer of interlayer dielectric, etch a through hole, and form the source and gate pads by depositing a thick layer of Al (4μm). Finally, a layer of PI glue was passivated to complete the device fabrication. The key structural parameters are as follows: (1) JFET region width WJFET = 1.8 μm, (2) channel length Wch = 0.5 μm, (3) overlap area between Polysilicon and N+ source region W = 0.5 μm, (4) spacing between Polysilicon and source electrode W = 0.8 μm, (5) length of N+ source region covered by source electrode W = 0.5 μm, (6) length of P+ ohmic contact region W = 1.0 μm. The obtained device was tested for channel mobility using MCV530L from semilab. The results are shown in Table 1.
