[0037] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific examples, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.
[0038] Figure 1 This is a flow chart of a method for preparing a three-dimensional Ga2O3 heterojunction superjunction diode provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figures 2 to 12 Schematic diagram of the preparation process of the three-dimensional Ga2O3 heterojunction superjunction diode provided by the embodiment of the present invention. Figures 1 to 12 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for preparing a three-dimensional Ga2O3 heterojunction superjunction diode, comprising:
[0039] S1. Provide an n+ type SiC substrate 1, and sequentially grow a p+ type NiO epitaxial layer 2 and an alkaline earth doped silicon oxide layer 3 on the surface of the n+ type SiC substrate 1;
[0040] S2, after opening windows in the alkaline earth doped silicon oxide layer 3 to form a plurality of spaced windows 4, the remaining alkaline earth doped silicon oxide layer 3 is reflowed by a rapid thermal annealing process to form a hemispherical mask 5;
[0041] S3. Etching the p+-type NiO epitaxial layer 2 using a dry etching process and a hemispherical mask 5 to form a plurality of hemispherical structures 6 arranged at intervals; wherein the hemispherical structure 6 with the largest diameter is located in the transition region of the device, and the two sides of the transition region are the source region and the terminal region of the device respectively;
[0042] S4. Epitaxially grow an n+ type Ga2O3 epitaxial layer 7 on the upper surface of the device, and perform ion implantation on multiple sub-regions of the n+ type Ga2O3 epitaxial layer 7 to form an n+ type electron transport layer 8; in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the n+ type SiC substrate 1, the orthographic projection of the sub-region is located between the orthographic projections of two adjacent hemispherical structures 6 in the source region, or between the orthographic projection of the hemispherical structure 6 in the source region and the orthographic projection of the hemispherical structure 6 in the transition region;
[0043] S5, opening a source electrode region window in the n+ type Ga2O3 epitaxial layer 7 located on the surface of the hemispherical structure 6 in the source region of the device, growing a field oxide passivation layer 9 on the upper surface of the device, and forming an ohmic contact on the lower surface of the n+ type SiC substrate 1;
[0044] S6. Remove the field oxide passivation layer 9 in the source region to open a window in the source electrode region, form a Schottky contact and a front electrode 10 on the upper surface of the device source region, and form a back electrode 11 on the lower surface of the n+ type SiC substrate 1.
[0045] It should be understood that existing two-dimensional superjunction structures can be decomposed into a superposition of electric field vectors in both the lateral and longitudinal directions. Excessive extension of the electric field in either direction will cause device avalanche breakdown. The superjunction diode prepared by the above-described method in the present invention is a three-dimensional structure, which can achieve better PN junction depletion and high vertical electric field controllability. Compared with two-dimensional structures, it has a slower electric field extension capability, thus achieving better voltage-resistance balance and lower resistance under the same voltage level conditions. Furthermore, because the heat dissipation performance of power devices can also affect device reliability, the present invention uses an n+-type SiC substrate during the preparation process. SiC, a material with high thermal conductivity, facilitates heat dissipation, further improving the performance of the three-dimensional Ga2O3 heterojunction superjunction diode.
[0046] Optionally, in this embodiment, the thickness of the n+ type SiC substrate 1 is 350 μm, and the doping concentration is 5×10 18 cm -3 The thickness of the p+ type NiO epitaxial layer 2 is 6 to 20 μm, and the doping concentration is 2×10 16 ~6×10 16 cm -3 The thickness of the alkaline earth doped silicon oxide layer 3 is 6 to 20 μm.
[0047] like Figures 3-5As shown, in step S2, after opening windows in the alkaline earth doped silicon oxide layer 3 to form a plurality of spaced windows 4, the remaining alkaline earth doped silicon oxide layer 3 is reflowed by a rapid thermal annealing process to form a hemispherical mask 5, including:
[0048] S201, using photolithography and etching processes to open windows in the alkaline earth-doped silicon oxide layer 3 to form a plurality of windows 4 arranged at intervals; wherein, in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the n+ type SiC substrate 1, the orthographic projection of the window 4 is a square, and the side length of the square is 6 to 20 μm;
[0049] S202 , under the conditions of an annealing temperature of 900-1000° C. and a time of 120-180 seconds, use a rapid thermal annealing process to reflow the remaining alkaline earth doped silicon oxide layer 3 to form a hemispherical mask 5 .
[0050] Specifically, first, the alkaline earth doped silicon oxide layer 3 is opened by photolithography and etching process, and the formed multiple windows 4 are arranged at intervals. Figure 4 Under the viewing angle shown, the vertical projection of each window 4 is a square. Figure 4 Here, only six windows 4 are used as an example. In practice, this application does not limit the number or shape of windows 4. Next, a rapid thermal annealing process is performed at a temperature of 900-1000°C for 120-180 seconds. During this process, the alkaline earth-doped silicon oxide layer 3 remaining after etching in step S201, i.e., the alkaline earth-doped silicon oxide layer 3 between two adjacent windows 4, reflows to form a hemispherical mask 5.
[0051] Furthermore, in step S3 , when the p + -type NiO epitaxial layer 2 is etched using the dry etching process and the hemispherical mask 5 , the etching selectivity is 1.
[0052] Still Figure 4 For example, it is worth noting that Figure 4 The six windows 4 divide the remaining alkaline earth doped silicon oxide layer 3 into five parts. The alkaline earth doped silicon oxide layer 3 in each part is reflowed to form a hemispherical mask 5. Among them, the hemispherical mask 5 formed by the reflow of the alkaline earth doped silicon oxide layer 3 in the middle part has the largest width in the horizontal direction. Therefore, when the etching selectivity is 1, five hemispherical structures 6 (such as Figure 6 As shown), similarly, the hemispherical structure 6 in the middle is the largest and is located in the transition region of the device, with the source region and the terminal region being on its left and right sides.
[0053] In addition, it should be noted that if more windows 4 are etched in step S2, more hemispherical structures 6 will be formed accordingly. At this time, the hemispherical structure 6 located in the middle position is still the largest in size. It is located in the transition zone, and the left and right sides are the source region and terminal region of the device respectively.
[0054] See Figure 7 In step S4, an n+ type Ga2O3 epitaxial layer 7 is epitaxially grown on the upper surface of the device. The n+ type Ga2O3 epitaxial layer 7 covers the surface of the above-mentioned multiple hemispherical structures 6 and is wavy. The thickness of the layer is 4 to 28 μm and the doping concentration is 2×10 16 ~6×10 16 cm -3 By designing the thickness and doping concentration of the p+ type NiO epitaxial layer 2 and the n+ type Ga2O3 epitaxial layer 7, the two can be kept in a charge balance state to avoid premature breakdown of the device.
[0055] The n+ type Ga2O3 epitaxial layer 7 includes multiple sub-regions. Specifically, the sub-regions are located in the n+ type Ga2O3 epitaxial layer 7 between two adjacent hemispherical structures 6 in the source region, and in the n+ type Ga2O3 epitaxial layer 7 between two hemispherical structures 6 at the junction of the source region and the transition region. By using the ion implantation process to implant into each sub-region, an n+ type electron transport layer 8 can be formed with a concentration of 1×10 18 ~5×10 18 cm -3 , and finally high temperature ion implantation activation is performed.
[0056] Furthermore, in step S5, a dry etching process is used to open a window in the source electrode region of the n+ type Ga2O3 epitaxial layer 7 on the surface of the hemispherical structure 6 in the source region of the device, followed by sacrificial oxidation, and a field oxygen passivation layer 9 is grown on the upper surface of the device using a PECVD process.
[0057] The step of forming an ohmic contact on the lower surface of the n+ type SiC substrate 1 includes:
[0058] S501, using electron beam evaporation process to deposit Ni metal with a thickness of 75 to 100 nm on the lower surface of the n+ type SiC substrate 1;
[0059] S502 , forming an ohmic contact on the lower surface of the n + -type SiC substrate 1 by using a rapid thermal annealing process under the conditions of an annealing temperature of 950-1050° C. and an annealing time of 120-300 s.
[0060] like Figures 10-11 As shown, in step S6, the field oxide passivation layer 9 in the source region is removed to open a window in the source region electrode region, and a Schottky contact is formed on the upper surface of the device source region and a front electrode 10 is formed, including:
[0061] S601, using photolithography and wet etching processes to remove the field oxide passivation layer 9 in the source region to open a window in the source electrode region;
[0062] S602, depositing Schottky metal Ti or Ni on the upper surface of the device by electron beam evaporation or magnetron sputtering process;
[0063] S603, forming a Schottky pattern by using a photolithography process, and forming a Schottky contact by performing a rapid thermal annealing process at an annealing temperature of 400-600° C. and an annealing time of 5-10 minutes;
[0064] S604 , using electron beam evaporation or magnetron sputtering technology to deposit Al on the upper surface of the device, and using photolithography and wet etching technology to form a front electrode 10 on the upper surface of the source region of the device.
[0065] Alternatively, as Figure 12 As shown, before the step of forming the back electrode 11 on the lower surface of the n+ type SiC substrate 1, the following steps are further included:
[0066] A polyimide PI passivation layer 12 is formed on the upper surface of the field oxide passivation layer 9 in the transition region and the terminal region, with a thickness of 6 mm.
[0067] The step of forming a back electrode 11 on the lower surface of the n+ type SiC substrate 1 includes:
[0068] Using an electron beam evaporation process, Ti / Ni / Ag with a thickness of 200 nm / 200 nm / 1000 nm is deposited on the lower surface of the n + -type SiC substrate 1 to form a back electrode 11 .
[0069] On the other hand, Figure 12 As shown, the present invention also provides a three-dimensional Ga2O3 heterojunction super junction diode, which is prepared using the above-mentioned preparation method of the three-dimensional Ga2O3 heterojunction super junction diode.
[0070] It can be seen from the above embodiments that the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0071] This invention provides a three-dimensional Ga2O3 heterojunction superjunction diode and its fabrication method. The resulting superjunction diode has a three-dimensional structure and exhibits a slower electric field extension than existing two-dimensional structures. This results in a better voltage-resistance balance and lower resistance at the same voltage level. Furthermore, the invention utilizes an n+-type SiC substrate during the fabrication process. SiC, with its high thermal conductivity, facilitates heat dissipation, further enhancing the performance of the three-dimensional Ga2O3 heterojunction diode.
