Description
Technical Field

[0002] As the fastest-growing power semiconductor device, the insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) has been widely used in rail transit, smart grid and other fields due to its easy gate drive and high current density. It is known as the "CPU" of power converters. Load short circuit is an occasional electrical fault of IGBT in application. In order to avoid damage to the device caused by short circuit fault, IGBT is required to withstand the short circuit stress impact within the response time of the protection circuit. The short circuit capability of the device has become an important indicator for measuring the reliability of IGBT application. Due to the application environment, high-voltage IGBT has stricter requirements on short circuit withstand. In order to leave response time for the external protection circuit, the IGBT device is turned off in the case of short circuit. Generally, the short circuit withstand time of the device itself is required to be no less than 10us. In the case of short circuit, the two ends of the IGBT bear a large voltage so that the output current reaches saturation. The current at this time is called short-circuit saturation current. The larger the saturation current, the shorter the short circuit time.
[0003] In order to pursue a lower saturation voltage drop, the current trench gate IGBT technology has made the trench size smaller and smaller, and the channel density larger and larger, which will increase the saturation current of the device, thereby greatly reducing the short-circuit resistance of the device. In order to improve the short-circuit resistance of the device, the existing technology periodically injects N-type impurities between the trenches of the conventional carrier storage trench gate IGBT to form an N+ region, which increases the channel length and the channel resistance R CH This method can improve the short-circuit resistance of the device, but it will also cause the on-state voltage drop V CESAT The lightly doped N-type ballast resistor of the prior art solution is mainly proposed for the planar gate IGBT device, and does not provide the layout unit of the N-type ballast resistor, the corresponding vertical device structure diagram and the manufacturing process.

A deep groove 110 is formed by etching the N-substrate 100 corresponding to the groove region 1. Generally, the depth of the deep groove 110 is 4 to 6 microns. The second direction is along the thickness of the IGBT device.
[0044] The first doping region and the second doping region are alternately arranged on the N-substrate 100 on opposite sides of the deep groove 110.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 2 The first doped region includes a P-well region 400, a first N-well region 220 and an N+ well region 210 formed in sequence on an N-substrate 100. A P+ well region 230 is disposed inside the first doped region.

The position of the P+ well region 230 corresponds to the contact hole region 4. The N+ well region 210 is formed by injecting arsenic ions into the first N-well region 220 and pushing the junction at a high temperature. The concentration of the arsenic ions injected into the N+ well region 210 is 10 19 ~10 20 cm -3 The junction depth of the N+ well region 210 on the first N-well region 220 is 0.2-0.25 microns.

The first N-well region 220 and the second N-well region 310 have the same composition and formation conditions. The first N-well region 220 in the first doping region and the second doping region are completely identical. The phosphorus ion concentrations injected into the first N-well region 220 and the second N-well region 310 are both 10 17 ~10 18 cm -3 .
[0047] Polysilicon material is deposited inside the deep trench 110 to form gate polysilicon 500 , and polysilicon material is also deposited on the second doped region to form a polysilicon layer 600 . The polysilicon layer 600 covers the deep trench 110 and the second doped region, and the polysilicon layer 600 is connected to the gate polysilicon 500 .
[0048] A gate oxide layer 700 is formed between the trench wall and the bottom of the deep trench 110 and the gate polysilicon 500 , and a gate oxide layer 700 is also formed between the polysilicon layer 600 and the second doped region. The thickness of the gate oxide layer 700 is 800Å-1200Å.
[0049] In another embodiment of the present application, a method for preparing the built-in ballast resistor of the above-mentioned IGBT device is disclosed, comprising the following steps:
[0050] Step S1, providing an N-substrate 100, using a mask plate to perform photolithography on the N-substrate 100 to form a patterned first mask layer, the first mask layer is photolithographically formed with a groove area 1, and the N-substrate 100 is etched corresponding to the groove area 1 to form at least two deep grooves 110 on the N-substrate 100, and the depth of the deep groove 110 is 4 to 6 microns, see Figure 5 .
[0051] Step S2, forming a silicon dioxide gate oxide layer 700 on the groove wall and groove bottom of the deep groove 110 and the top surface of the N-substrate 100 by thermal growth, the thickness of the gate oxide layer 700 is 800Å~1200Å, see Figure 6 The gate oxide layer 700 in this embodiment is formed by a conventional thermal growth method, and this embodiment does not specifically limit it as long as the gate oxide layer can be formed at a corresponding position.
[0052] Step S3, boron ion implantation is performed on the N-substrate 100 at two opposite sides of the deep trench 110, and the implantation concentration of the boron ions is 10 13 ~10 14 cm -2 , and push the junction at 900-1000 degrees Celsius for 50-60 minutes, preferably at 950 degrees Celsius for 55 minutes, to form a P-well region 400 on the N-substrate 100 on opposite sides of the deep trench 110. The junction depth of the P-well region 400 on the N-substrate 100 is 2.5-3.5 microns, see Figure 7 .
[0053] Step S4, depositing polysilicon material on the gate oxide layer 700, forming gate polysilicon 500 in the deep trench 110, and forming a polysilicon layer 600 outside the deep trench. Using a mask plate to perform photolithography on the polysilicon layer to form a patterned second mask layer, along the first direction, the second mask layer is photolithographically formed with a plurality of N+ type source regions 2 and polysilicon regions 3 that are alternately distributed, and etching the polysilicon layer corresponding to the N+ type source region to the gate oxide layer. After etching, the gate polysilicon 500 and the polysilicon layer 600 are still connected. See Figure 8 The polysilicon layer 600 can block the subsequent N+ (arsenic) injection. The polysilicon in the deep trench 110 acts as a gate electrode. The polysilicon layer 600 is connected to the polysilicon in the deep trench 100 to achieve equipotential. In this way, when the gate is pressurized, the other side of the gate oxide layer 700 will be inverted or the electrons will be gathered into N. When the device is turned on at room temperature, the internal resistance will not increase too much. At high temperature, R N- The ballast resistor has a positive temperature coefficient to achieve the ballast effect. In addition, the width of the polysilicon region can be adjusted to adjust R N- The size of the ballast resistor.
[0054] Step S5, phosphorus ion implantation is performed on the P-well region 400, with an implantation concentration of 1017 ~10 18 cm -3 , and push the junction at 900-1000℃ for 50-70min, preferably at 950℃ for 60min, to form an N-well region on the P-well region 400, with a junction depth of 0.35-0.45 microns. The N-well region corresponding to the polysilicon region at this time is the first N-well region 220 and the second N-well region 230 of the second doping region. Then, arsenic is implanted on the N-well region corresponding to the N+ type source region 2, with an implant concentration of 10 19 ~10 20 cm -3 , and anneal at 900-1000℃ for 20-40min, preferably at 950℃ for 30min, to form an N+ well region 210 on the N-well region corresponding to the N+ source region, with a junction depth of 0.2-0.25um. At this time, the N-well region in the N+ source region is the first N-well region of the first doping region. Please refer to Fig. 9 .
[0055] In the IGBT device of the present application, along the first direction, the top of the first N-well region between each two adjacent deep trenches 110 is provided with an N+ well region 210 and a second N-well region 310 that are alternately distributed at intervals, and the N+ well region 210 and the second N-well region 310 that are alternately distributed at intervals correspond to the N+ type source region 2 and the polysilicon region 3, respectively. The polysilicon layer connected to the polysilicon gate blocks the injection of N+ (arsenic), and through the difference in diffusion coefficients of phosphorus and arsenic, only an N-ballast resistor region is formed under the polysilicon layer, and the length of the N-region is indirectly increased in the polysilicon region, thereby realizing the ballast resistor R N- The polysilicon layer is connected to the polysilicon gate in the deep trench to achieve equipotential. When the gate is pressurized, the other side of the gate oxide layer will be inverted or the electrons will be gathered into N. When the IGBT device is turned on at room temperature, the internal resistance will not increase too much. At high temperatures, the ballast resistor R N- The positive temperature coefficient can achieve ballast effect.
[0056] The purpose of selecting the ballast resistor as N-type lightly doped in this application is that at room temperature, the impurities in the single crystal silicon are completely ionized. When the temperature rises, due to the lattice vibration scattering, especially the dominant phonon scattering, the mobility decreases with the increase of temperature, so that the resistivity increases with the increase of temperature, and the temperature coefficient is positive at this time. If the ballast resistor is heavily doped with N-type, the temperature coefficient may be negative, or the positive temperature coefficient is small, and the ballast effect is poor.
[0057] In another embodiment of the present application, an IGBT device is disclosed, which includes the built-in ballast resistor described above, and also includes a collector metal layer 810, a P+ substrate 820, an emitter metal layer 830 and an ILD dielectric layer 840, one side of the P+ substrate 820 is connected to the N- substrate 100, and the other side opposite to the collector metal layer 810. One side of the ILD dielectric layer 840 faces the emitter metal layer 830, and the other side opposite to the first doping region and the second doping region.
[0058] The IGBT device sequentially deposits an ILD dielectric layer on the first doping region, the second doping region and the groove region of the built-in ballast resistor to form an ILD dielectric layer, etches contact holes (Si groove depth 0.5um), injects contact holes into the P+ well region, deposits metal, etches metal to form an emitter metal layer, and then thins the back surface on the other side of the N- substrate, injects phosphorus and boron into the back surface to form a P+ substrate, and metalizes to form a collector metal. The above steps of ILD dielectric layer deposition, contact hole etching, injection of contact hole P+ well region, metal deposition, metal etching, back surface thinning, back surface phosphorus and boron injection are the same as the corresponding steps of the existing trench gate IGBT device, and will not be repeated in this application.
