Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power semiconductor devices, and in particular to an N-type lateral device and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] High-voltage power devices are core components of power electronic systems and are widely used in industrial motor drives, new energy generation, electric vehicles, aerospace, smart grids and other fields. As power electronic technology develops towards high efficiency, integration and high frequency, higher requirements are placed on the performance of power devices: on the one hand, they need to withstand hundreds of volts of high-voltage blocking capability, and on the other hand, they need to achieve low-loss high-current transmission when turned on. However, traditional high-voltage lateral devices (such as lateral double-diffused metal oxide semiconductor devices LDMOS, lateral insulated gate bipolar transistors LIGBT, etc.) face severe challenges in the coordinated optimization of high voltage and high current density, which has become a key bottleneck restricting the improvement of system efficiency. Traditional LDMOS devices share high voltage through the resistance of the lateral drift region, but their on-resistance increases exponentially with the square of the breakdown voltage. Therefore, how to reduce the on-resistance of the device while meeting the breakdown voltage required by the system has always been an eternal pursuit. In addition, although LIGBT devices reduce the on-voltage drop through conductivity modulation, their slow turn-off speed and large tail current limit the increase in switching frequency, and the device structure is complex and reliability issues are prominent. In recent years, lateral devices based on SiC and GaN wide bandgap semiconductors have attracted much attention due to their excellent breakdown field strength and electron mobility, but their high-voltage capabilities are limited by material defects and surface trap effects, and the thermal effect is significant under high current density, resulting in dynamic resistance degradation. In addition, although SiC lateral devices have high-temperature stability, they are limited by heteroepitaxial growth technology and high-cost processes, making it difficult to achieve large-area uniform manufacturing, making it difficult to prepare large-scale power integrated circuits.
