Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of semiconductor devices, and relates to a SiC MOSFET device integrated with a double self-bias MOS. BACKGROUND
[0002] Since entering the 21st century, with the vigorous development of emerging fields such as new energy, electric vehicles and smart grids, the demand for high-performance power electronic components has surged, especially for power devices that can withstand extreme conditions, have high-voltage resistance, radiation resistance and support high-frequency and low-power operation. Silicon carbide (SiC) materials have shown excellent capabilities due to their unique physical properties, including a wide bandgap, high critical breakdown field strength and high electron mobility, which can balance the characteristics of "high voltage resistance", "low on-resistance" and "high frequency response".
[0003] In recent years, trench SiC MOSFETs have received widespread attention in the industry because they achieve a compact cell design and effectively weaken the junction field effect transistor (JFET) effect. In particular, trench SiC MOSFETs with excellent gate oxide layer stability have been successfully developed and applied in practice. However, such MOSFETs still face key challenges, namely the high forward voltage drop (typically about 2-3 V) and bidirectional performance degradation caused by parasitic body diodes, which not only increases energy loss but also can affect the overall reliability of the device.
[0004] To overcome the above problems, researchers often use external anti-parallel Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) to alleviate the problem, but this solution leads to an increase in module volume and the generation of additional capacitance. Therefore, integrating a freewheeling diode into the chip has become the mainstream research direction, such as built-in SBDs, heterojunction diodes or channel diodes. However, these solutions have their own shortcomings, such as the large reverse leakage current of built-in SBDs at high temperatures, and the difficulty of popularizing the application of built-in heterojunction diodes due to complex interface state problems.
[0005] Currently, in traditional design schemes, the P-type shielding layer is mostly directly connected to the source, which increases the on-resistance of the JFET region when turned on. The ideal state is to keep the P-type shielding layer suspended in the on mode and reliably grounded in the off state, so as to fully exert the performance of the device. If this idea is realized, it will greatly improve the technical indicators of SiC MOSFETs, enabling SiC MOSFETs to have higher efficiency and lower energy consumption. SUMMARY
[0006] Therefore, the SiC MOSFET device integrated with double self-bias MOS aims to provide a SiC MOSFET device integrated with double self-bias MOS, which integrates self-bias PMOS and NMOS on the source groove side of the double groove SiC MOSFET device, realizes P-type shielding layer floating in the on state and clamping in the off state through the self-bias PMOS, realizes reverse conduction in the third quadrant through the self-bias NMOS, and the P-type shielding layer is in a floating state, so that the body diode is not conductive, and only the self-bias NMOS realizes the freewheeling function, so as to completely eliminate the bipolar degradation effect.
[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the application provides the following technical scheme.
[0008] The SiC MOSFET device integrated with double self-bias MOS comprises an N+ substrate region, an N-drift region located on the surface of the N+ substrate region, a main MOS located on the surface of the N-drift region, a first double self-bias MOS and a second double self-bias MOS located on the surface of the N-drift region and distributed on both sides of the main MOS, a source metal contact region located at the top of the device, and a drain metal contact region located at the bottom of the device.
[0009] The first double self-bias MOS and the second double self-bias MOS are the same in structure and are symmetrically distributed, and the double self-bias MOS comprises a self-bias PMOS and a self-bias NMOS.
[0010] Further, the main MOS comprises a first polysilicon region, a first N+ source region and a first insulating dielectric layer. The first polysilicon region is located above the N-drift region and is completely wrapped by the first insulating dielectric layer; the first N+ source region is distributed on both sides of the first polysilicon region and is separated from the first polysilicon region by the first insulating dielectric layer.
[0011] Further, the first double self-bias MOS and the second double self-bias MOS each comprise a P-well region, a P+ region, a second polysilicon region, a second insulating dielectric layer, a P-base region, a second N+ source region and a P+ drain region. The P-well region is located on the surface of the N-drift region; the P+ region is located above the right side of the P-well region; the second polysilicon region is located above the P-well region and the P+ region and is separated from the second N+ source region, the P-base region, the N-drift region, the P-well region and the P+ region by the second insulating dielectric layer; the P-base region is located on the surface of the N-drift region and is adjacent to the first insulating dielectric layer on the left side and adjacent to the first N+ source region on the top side; the second N+ source region is located above the right side of the P-base region; and the P+ drain region is located on the upper surface of the P-base region and is adjacent to the first N+ source region.
[0012] The P-well region is used as the source of the self-biased PMOS, the second N+ source region is used as the source of the self-biased NMOS, the P+ drain region is used as the drain of the self-biased PMOS, and the second polysilicon region is used as the gate of the self-biased PMOS and the self-biased NMOS.
[0013] The P+ drain region, the second N+ source region and the second polysilicon region are in contact with the source metal contact region, so that the P+ drain region and the second N+ source region are in equipotential connection with the second polysilicon region, thereby short-circuiting the drain and the gate of the self-biased PMOS and short-circuiting the source and the gate of the self-biased NMOS. In addition, the drain of the self-biased NMOS is connected to the drain of the main MOS, and both are connected to the drain metal contact region.
[0014] Further, in the lateral direction of the device, the P-well region protrudes from the second insulating medium layer by a portion, and the protruding portion is used to enhance the conduction capability of the self-biased PMOS.
[0015] The SiC MOSFET device with integrated double self-biased MOSs has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1) By short-circuiting the drain and the gate of the self-biased PMOS, when the potential of the drain of the self-biased PMOS rises, the potential of the P-well region also continuously rises until the self-biased PMOS is turned on. Thus, when the device is in the forward conduction state, the drain voltage is not large enough, the potential of the P-well region is not large enough, the self-biased PMOS is turned off, and the P-type shielding layer (i.e. the P-well region) is in a floating state. In the blocking state, the drain voltage continuously rises, the potential of the P-well region continuously rises, the self-biased PMOS is turned on, and the P-well region is in a clamping state, which can better protect the gate oxide layer than the floating P-well.
[0017] 2) By short-circuiting the source and the gate of the self-biased NMOS, in the third quadrant, the potential of the source of the self-biased NMOS rises, and the self-biased NMOS is turned on. In addition, in the third quadrant, the self-biased PMOS is in an off state, and the body diode cannot be turned on, so the reverse current function can only be realized by the self-biased NMOS, thereby completely eliminating the bipolar degradation effect.
[0018] Compared with the conventional double-trench SiC MOSFET device, the SiC MOSFET device with integrated double self-bias MOS has reduced on-resistance, completely shields the bipolar degradation effect, and has no impact on the breakdown voltage; compared with the completely floating device, the SiC MOSFET device with integrated double self-bias MOS can better protect the gate oxide layer of the device, and the dynamic characteristics of the device are improved.

The N+ source region 10 of the right self-biased NMOS is located on the upper right of the right P-base region 7 and the lower surface of the source metal contact region 9, with the right side being the insulating medium layer region 6 of the right source auxiliary gate, a thickness of 0.2 μm, a width of 0.15 μm, SiC doped with N-type impurity nitrogen (N), and a doping concentration of 1 x 1018 cm-3. 19 cm -3 The P+ drain region 11 of the right self-biased PMOS is located on the upper surface of the right P-base region 7 and the lower surface of the source metal contact region 9, with the left side being the N+ source region 12 of the right main MOS, a thickness of 0.2 μm, a width of 0.25 μm, SiC doped with P-type impurity aluminum (AL), and a doping concentration of 1 x 1018 cm-3. 19 cm -3 .

[0047] As Figure 2 shown, it is an equivalent circuit diagram of the device described in the embodiment. As Figure 2 can be seen, the new device proposed in the embodiment actually integrates double self-bias MOS in the metal on both sides of the traditional double-trench device, and each side of the double self-bias MOS includes a self-bias PMOS and a self-bias NMOS. The drain and the gate of the self-bias PMOS are short-circuited, and the source is the potential of the P-well, thereby realizing automatic switching of the device floating and clamping. The source and the gate of the self-bias NMOS are short-circuited, and the drain is the drain of the main MOS, thereby realizing the freewheeling function in the third quadrant and completely eliminating the bipolar degradation effect.
[0048] Figure 3 As shown in the figure, it is a comparison diagram of the conduction characteristics of the traditional double-trench device, the new device, the new device (floating) and the new device (grounded). As Figure 3 can be seen, the conduction characteristics of the new device (floating) are the best, followed by the new device, and the traditional double-trench device and the new device (grounded) both ground the P-well, so the JFET is large and the conduction characteristics are poor. This proves that the new device optimizes the conduction performance of the traditional double-trench device. Among them, the new device (floating) is based on the new device proposed in the embodiment, and the voltage applied on the polysilicon region of the source auxiliary gate on the left and right sides of the device is removed; the new device (grounded) is based on the new device proposed in the embodiment, and the P+ region on the left and right sides of the device is connected to the source metal contact region 9.
[0049] Figure 4 As shown in the figure, it is a comparison diagram of the total current density under the conduction of the traditional double-trench device, the new device, the new device (floating) and the new device (grounded). As Figure 4It can be seen that the new device (floating) has the widest current conduction path, while the traditional double-groove device and the new device (grounded) have the narrowest current conduction paths. The current conduction path of the new device falls in between, which also confirms... Figure 3 The conduction curve results.
[0050] Figure 5 The diagram illustrates the P-well potential changes of a traditional double-trench device, a novel device, a novel device (floating), and a novel device (grounded) under conduction conditions. It can be seen that the P-well potential of the traditional double-trench device and the novel device (grounded) remains around -1.4V, while the potential of the novel device (floating) shows a continuous upward trend, finally slowing down around 11V. This is because the rising P-well potential causes PNP punch-through, allowing holes to flow into the source, thus slowing the potential increase. The novel device achieves floating and clamping through a self-biased PMOS, resulting in a lower clamping voltage and more effective protection of the gate oxide layer. At V... ds <V on At 13.86V, the self-biased PMOS is turned off, and the P-well is in a floating state. At V... ds >V on At 13.86V, the self-biased PMOS is turned on, and the P-well is in a clamped state.
[0051] Figure 6 The image shows the PMOS integrated within the novel device under conduction conditions, which is influenced by V. ds The increase in [a certain value] indicates the on / off state. From [the following]... Figure 6 It can be seen that when V gs =15V, V ds =5V, the self-biased PMOS is turned off, when V gs =15V, V ds At 15V, the self-biased PMOS is turned on.
[0052] Figure 7 The diagram shows a comparison of the breakdown characteristic curves of a traditional double-trench device, a novel device, a novel device (floating), and a novel device (grounded). From... Figure 7 It can be seen that the new device (floating) has the highest breakdown voltage, the new device (grounded) has the lowest, the traditional double trench device is close to the new device, but overall the breakdown voltages of the four devices are not much different.
[0053] Figure 8 The diagram shows the traditional double-groove device compared to the novel device, the novel device (floating), and the novel device (grounded) at V. dsA comparison of the gate oxide electric field strength of the devices under an 800V blocking condition. It can be seen that the gate oxide electric field strength of the novel device (floating) is 3.13MV / cm, exceeding its safe electric field strength, which is detrimental to the long-term use of the device. The remaining three devices all have a field strength less than 3MV / cm, effectively protecting the gate oxide layer. This indicates that the novel device, through self-biased PMOS clamping, reduces the P-well potential, providing better protection for the gate oxide layer compared to a completely floating device.
[0054] Figure 9 The diagram illustrates the potential changes of the P-well under blocking conditions for a traditional double-trench device, a novel device, a novel device (floating), and a novel device (grounded). From... Figure 9 It can be seen that the P-well potential of both the traditional dual-trench device and the new device (grounded) remains around -1.4V. The potential of the new device (floating) shows a continuous upward trend, eventually reaching around 20V, which is not conducive to protecting the gate oxide layer of the device. The final potential of the new device is clamped at around 1.2V, which is more conducive to protecting the gate oxide layer of the device and ensuring the long-term reliability of the device.
[0055] Figure 10 The image shows the PMOS integrated within the novel device under blocking conditions, which varies with V. ds The increase of V indicates the on / off state. It can be seen that when V... gs =0V, V ds =5V, the self-biased PMOS is turned off, when V gs =0V, V ds When the voltage is 15V, the self-biased PMOS turns on to achieve the clamping function.
[0056] Figure 11 The image shows a comparison of the total current density and hole current density curves when the traditional double-trench device and the novel device are in the third quadrant. From... Figure 11 It can be seen that the new device relies entirely on electronic conductivity to achieve freewheeling, even if V sd The voltage reached 4V, exceeding the turn-on voltage of the SiC diode, and the hole current of the device was almost zero, indicating that the novel device provided in this embodiment completely eliminates the bipolar degradation effect. This is because in the third quadrant, the self-biased PMOS is in the off state, the P-well is floating, and freewheeling is impossible. In contrast, traditional double-trench devices rely on the body diode for conduction, and their conduction mode is bipolar, which can lead to the bipolar degradation effect, which is detrimental to the long-term reliability of the device.
[0057] Figure 12 The image shows a comparison of the total current density when the traditional dual-trench device and the novel device are in the third quadrant. It can be seen that the total current path of the novel device is only the self-biased NMOS channel (such as...).Figure 12 As shown in a), traditional dual-groove devices rely on a body diode for conduction, and their total current density permeates the entire device (as shown in a diagram). Figure 12 (as shown in b).
[0058] Figure 13 The image shows a comparison of hole density in the third quadrant when the traditional double-groove device and the novel device are in operation. It can be seen that the hole current density in the novel device is almost zero (e.g., ...). Figure 13 As shown in a), the hole current density of traditional dual-trench devices permeates the entire device (as shown in a). Figure 13 (as shown in b).
[0059] Figure 14 The figure shows the NMOS integrated within the novel device in the third quadrant, which varies with V. sd The increase of V indicates the on / off state. It can be seen that when V... gs =-5V, V ds When V = 0.5V, the self-biased M = NMOS is turned off, and when V gs =-5V, V ds At 2V, the self-biased NMOS turns on, enabling reverse freewheeling. The turn-on voltage of the self-biased NMOS is much lower than the forward voltage of the SiC diode, which can completely eliminate the bipolar degradation effect.
[0060] Figure 15 The diagram shows a comparison of the gate charge characteristic curves of a traditional double-groove device, a novel device, a novel device (floating), and a novel device (grounded). From... Figure 15 It can be seen that the Q of the novel device (floating) gd and Q g The largest value is found in the device with the worst dynamic characteristics. The remaining three devices are similar, with little difference between them.
[0061] Figure 16 The image shows a comparison of the capacitance characteristic curves of a traditional double-groove device, a new device, a new device (floating), and a new device (grounded). From... Figure 16 It can be seen that the C of the novel device (floating) rss Maximum, new device (grounded) and traditional double trench device C rss The minimum value is found in the novel device, while the intermediate value indicates that the switching speed of the novel device also falls between floating and grounded. The C value of the novel device (floating) is... oss The smallest, the remaining three devices are not significantly different. The C of the novel device (floating) iss The smallest, and the remaining three devices are not much different.
[0062] In summary, the application provides a SiC MOSFET device integrated with double self-bias MOS. The device realizes self-bias PMOS off, P-well region floating and reduced on-resistance of the device by integrated self-bias PMOS when forward conducting; realizes self-bias PMOS on and P-well region clamping when blocking, which effectively protects the gate oxide layer of the device compared with the completely floating device; realizes freewheeling function in the third quadrant by integrated self-bias NMOS, and under this condition, P-well is in floating state and body diode cannot be turned on, which completely avoids the bipolar degradation effect. The SiC MOSFET device provided by the application has the following advantages compared with the conventional double-trench SiC MOSFET: the specific on-resistance is reduced by 2% when I ds = 200A; the reverse on-state voltage drop V ds is reduced by 24.15% when I cut-in = -100A; compared with the device with completely floating P-well, the gate oxide layer electric field is reduced by 28.4% and the gate charge Q gd is reduced by 20.81% under the blocking condition, and the gate charge Q g is reduced by 3.1%, and the transfer capacitance C rss is reduced by 74.08% when 200V.
