[0122] The embodiments of the present application are described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. The terms used in the implementation methods of the present application are only used to explain the specific embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. It is known to those skilled in the art that with the development of technology and the emergence of new scenarios, the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application are also applicable to similar technical problems.
[0123] Ultra-wide bandgap semiconductor materials with band gaps wider than those of silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) include gallium oxide (Ga2O3), diamond, and aluminum nitride (AlN). These wide- and ultra-wide-bandgap semiconductor materials have attracted widespread attention within the industry due to their exceptional properties. Compared to traditional silicon materials, these materials offer advantages in physical properties such as band gap width, critical breakdown electric field strength, and electron saturation drift velocity. Power devices fabricated from these materials, such as diodes and transistors, exhibit superior electrical properties, enabling them to meet the high-power, high-voltage, high-frequency, and high-temperature requirements that silicon-based devices cannot meet. These materials represent a path to surpassing Moore's Law, and are therefore widely used in new energy sectors (photovoltaics, energy storage, charging stations, electric vehicles, etc.), driving the "new energy revolution."
[0124] Wide- and ultra-wide-bandgap semiconductors, with their superior optical and electrical properties, are considered an exciting and challenging new research area. The wide bandgap enables device applications in many harsh environments. For example, in geothermal energy production and oil and gas extraction, higher drilling speeds and lower failure rates can be achieved. High-temperature operation allows electronic sensors in aluminum and steel mills, as well as coal- and gas-fired power plants, to operate at higher temperatures, thereby improving the energy efficiency of these industrial processes.
[0125] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0126] It should be noted that the directional words appearing in the present invention are based on the relative position relationship shown in the drawings and cannot be used as an absolute limitation to the present application.
[0127] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic cross-sectional view and top view of a MOSFET device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 a is the corresponding cross-sectional diagram, Figure 1 b is the corresponding top view; Figure 2 , Figure 2 A schematic cross-sectional view and top view of another MOSFET device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 a is the corresponding cross-sectional diagram, Figure 2 b is the corresponding top view; Figure 3 , Figure 3 A schematic cross-sectional view and top view of another MOSFET device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 a is the corresponding cross-sectional diagram, Figure 3 b is the corresponding top view; Figure 4 , Figure 4 A schematic cross-sectional view and top view of another MOSFET device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 a is the corresponding cross-sectional diagram, Figure 4 b is a corresponding top view. The MOSFET device provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes: a substrate 11.
[0128] An N-type voltage-resistant layer 12 is located on one side of the substrate 11 ; and a drain 13 is located on a side of the substrate 11 away from the N-type voltage-resistant layer 12 .
[0129] A P-type well region 14, a source region and a trench gate are arranged on the surface of the N-type voltage-resistant layer 12 on the side away from the substrate 11; the trench gate includes a trench and a gate 15 located in the trench, and a gate dielectric layer 16 is provided between the gate 15 and the trench.
[0130] The source region includes an N-type source region 17 and a P-type source region 18 ; the N-type source region 17 is located on the side of the P-type well region 14 away from the substrate 11 , and the P-type source region 18 is located on both sides of the trench, which runs through the N-type source region 17 and the P-type well region 14 .
[0131] A source electrode 19 is in contact with the N-type source region 17 and the P-type source region 14 .
[0132] A P-type buried layer 20 is located in the N-type voltage-resistant layer 12 and between the bottom of the trench and the substrate 11 ; the P-type buried layer 20 is electrically connected to the source, and a gap exists between the P-type buried layer 20 and the bottom of the trench.
[0133] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the P-type source region 18 is located on both sides of the trench, and the implantation depth of the P-type source region 18 is relatively deep, which can shield a portion of the potential from the drain 13; on this basis, a P-type buried layer 20 is provided in the N-type voltage-resistant layer 12 between the bottom of the trench and the substrate 11. The P-type buried layer 20 is electrically connected to the source, solving the problem of insufficient protection of the P-type source region 18 against the electric field at the bottom of the trench, improving the protection effect of the electric field at the bottom of the trench, and achieving effective protection of the gate dielectric layer under high drain voltage. Figure 5 , Figure 5 An embodiment of the present invention provides a Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the current path of the MOSFET device. Since there is a gap between the P-type buried layer 20 and the bottom of the channel, the current can also flow between the bottom of the trench and the P-type buried layer 20. There is no problem of the design of the P-type buried layer 20 hindering the flow of current, thereby comprehensively improving the working performance of the MOSFET device.
[0134] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, reference Figure 6 , Figure 6 A schematic cross-sectional view and top view of another MOSFET device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 6 a is the corresponding cross-sectional diagram, Figure 6 b is the corresponding top view; Figure 7 , Figure 7 A schematic cross-sectional view and top view of another MOSFET device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 7 a is the corresponding cross-sectional diagram, Figure 7 b is the corresponding top view; Figure 8 , Figure 8 A schematic cross-sectional view and top view of another MOSFET device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 8 a is the corresponding cross-sectional diagram, Figure 8 b is a corresponding top view. The width of the P-type buried layer 20 is equal to the width of the trench; or, the width of the P-type buried layer 20 is smaller than the width of the trench; or, the width of the P-type buried layer 20 is larger than the width of the trench.
[0135] In a direction parallel to the plane where the substrate 11 is located, there is a gap between the geometric center of the P-type buried layer 20 and the geometric center of the bottom of the trench.
[0136] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, the width of the P-type buried layer 20 is smaller than the width of the trench, that is, L1 < L2; Figure 7 As shown in FIG, the width of the P-type buried layer 20 is greater than the width of the trench, that is, L3>L4. Figure 8As shown, there is a gap between the geometric center of the P-type buried layer 20 and the geometric center of the bottom of the trench in a direction parallel to the plane of the substrate 11. It can be understood that the geometric center of the P-type buried layer 20 is offset to the right by a distance relative to the geometric center of the bottom of the trench.
[0137] That is, in the embodiments of the present invention, the positional and dimensional relationship between the P-type buried layer 20 and the trench can be freely varied, which indirectly reflects the structural diversity of the MOSFET device in the technical solution of this application. Specifically, the P-type buried layer 20 can be equal to, wider than, or narrower than the width of the trench, and this is not limited in the embodiments of the present invention. Furthermore, the relative position of the P-type buried layer 20 and the trench can be varied, for example, offset to the left or right.
[0138] Based on the structure in which the width of the P-type buried layer 20 is greater than the width of the trench, the MOSFET device can have better gate oxide reliability; based on the structure in which the width of the P-type buried layer 20 is less than the width of the trench, the MOSFET device can have better conduction performance; based on the structure in which the P-type buried layer 20 can be offset left and right relative to the trench position, the MOSFET device structure can have greater process tolerance and simplify the process difficulty.
[0139] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 As shown, the MOSFET device further includes: a P-type ground layer 22 .
[0140] The P-type ground layer 22 contacts the P-type buried layer 20 and the P-type source region 18 respectively.
[0141] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, the electrical connection between the P-type buried layer 20 and the P-type source region 18 can be achieved by providing a P-type ground layer 22 in contact with both, thereby improving the stability of the electrical connection between the P-type buried layer 20 and the P-type source region 18. In some structural solutions, the MOSFET device may not need to provide a P-type ground layer 22, and it is sufficient to ensure that the P-type buried layer 20 and the P-type source region 18 are electrically connected. The specific electrical connection method can be determined according to actual conditions.
[0142] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4-Figure 8As shown, the MOSFET device further includes an N-type current diffusion region 21 located between the P-type well region 14 and the P-type buried layer 20. The N-type current diffusion region 21 has the same doping type as the N-type voltage-withstanding layer 12, and the doping concentration of the N-type current diffusion region 21 is greater than or equal to the doping concentration of the N-type voltage-withstanding layer 12.
[0143] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, when the doping concentration of the N-type current diffusion region 21 is equal to the doping concentration of the N-type voltage-withstanding layer 12, the N-type current diffusion region 21 plays the same role as the N-type voltage-withstanding layer 12. When the doping concentration of the N-type current diffusion region 21 is greater than the doping concentration of the N-type voltage-withstanding layer 12, the relatively high doping of the N-type current diffusion region 21 can reduce the width of the depletion region, thereby increasing the current conduction path and enhancing the conduction capability of the MOSFET device.
[0144] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, reference Figure 9 , Figure 9 The cross-sectional view of a MOSFET device provided by an embodiment of the present invention is as follows: the N-type current diffusion region 21 at least partially wraps the P-type buried layer 20 .
[0145] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, when the doping concentration of the N-type current diffusion region 21 is greater than the doping concentration of the N-type voltage-resistant layer 12, the design of the N-type current diffusion region 21 at least partially wrapping the P-type buried layer 20 can further enhance the conduction capability of the MOSFET device. Figure 9 As shown, the N-type current diffusion region 21 completely wraps the P-type buried layer 20 for illustration.

[0180] Based on the above embodiment of the present invention, another embodiment of the present invention further provides a method for manufacturing a MOSFET device, referring to Figure 66 , Figure 66 A schematic flow chart of a method for manufacturing a MOSFET device according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method for manufacturing a MOSFET device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes:
[0181] S101: Provide a substrate 11.
[0182] S102 : forming an N-type voltage-resistant layer 12 on one side of the substrate 11 .
[0183] S103 : forming a P-type well region 14 , a source region and a P-type buried layer 20 in the N-type voltage-resistant layer 12 .
[0184] S104: forming a trench gate; the trench gate includes a trench and a gate 15 located in the trench, with a gate dielectric layer 16 between the gate 15 and the trench; the source region includes an N-type source region 17 and a P-type source region 18; the N-type source region 17 is located on the side of the P-type well region 14 away from the substrate 11, and the P-type source region 18 is located on both sides of the trench, and the trench passes through the N-type source region 17 and the P-type well region 14; the P-type buried layer 20 is located between the bottom of the trench and the substrate 11; and there is a gap between the P-type buried layer 20 and the bottom of the channel.
[0185] S105: forming a source 19 and a drain 13; the drain 13 is located on the side of the substrate 11 away from the N-type voltage-resistant layer 12, the source 19 contacts the N-type source region 17 and the P-type source region 18, and the P-type buried layer 20 is electrically connected to the source.
[0186] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present invention, functional film layers such as the P-type buried layer 20 are formed first, and then the trench gate is formed, so that the width of the trench and the width of the P-type buried layer 20 are decoupled from each other. This can not only further reduce the width of the trench and the cell size of the MOSFET device to improve the conduction performance of the MOSFET device, but also make the MOSFET device have better process compatibility.
[0187] For example, assuming the trench width is 1 μm, if ion implantation is performed in the trench, the width of the implanted P-type buried layer 20 cannot exceed 1 μm. However, if the implantation is performed on a flat surface before trench etching, the trench width does not need to be considered. The trench width does not affect the width of the P-type buried layer 20. In other words, the width of the P-type buried layer 20 and the trench width are not coupled to each other and can be freely designed.
[0188] Conversely, if a MOSFET device design requires a P-type buried layer 20 with a width of at least 2 μm, then if a trench is formed first and then the P-type buried layer 20 is formed, the trench width must be at least 2 μm. However, using the fabrication method of this technical solution, the trench width can be reduced to only 1 μm, thus reducing the size of the MOSFET device cell based on the width of this technical solution by at least 1 μm. This allows more MOSFET device cells (or more conduction units) to fit on a chip of the same area, resulting in better conduction performance.
