[0084] To better understand the technical solutions of this application, the following will be described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the specification and specific embodiments.

[0085] In conventional technology, when power MOS devices are running at high power, their internal heat is difficult to dissipate quickly, causing the device temperature to rise significantly. This not only affects the performance of the device, but also threatens the reliability and service life of the equipment. In addition, the structure of traditional power MOS devices has limitations in terms of breakdown voltage, and the low breakdown voltage limits its application in high-voltage application scenarios. At the same time, due to the weak heat dissipation capacity of the device, when the device size is reduced to the micro-nano scale, the performance often degrades due to heat accumulation.

[0086] The embodiment of the present application provides a power MOS device, which can quickly conduct away the heat generated by the device when it is working by setting a first substrate layer and a second substrate layer made of a high thermal conductivity material in the JFET region of the power MOS device, significantly reducing the thermal stress caused by local overheating, thereby effectively reducing the operating temperature of the device. By optimizing thermal management, the long-term reliability of the device can be significantly improved, providing a strong guarantee for the performance stability under high-power operation.

[0087] The first embodiment of the present application provides a power MOS device, referring to Figure 1 ,include:

[0088] Drift layer 110 .

[0089] In one embodiment, the drift layer 110 is a key area in the power MOS device for withstanding high voltage, and is usually composed of a low-doped semiconductor material. The main function of the drift layer 110 is to withstand the high voltage at both ends of the device. By controlling the doping concentration and thickness of the drift layer 110, the breakdown voltage (BV) of the device can be adjusted. The drift layer 110 with a low doping concentration can increase the withstand voltage of the device, but at the same time increase the on-resistance. When the device is turned on, the drift layer 110 is one of the main channels for current to flow from the drain to the source. Its resistance characteristics directly affect the conduction loss of the device.

[0090] The first substrate layer 121 and the second substrate layer 122 are respectively disposed on two sides of the drift layer 110 , wherein the material of the first substrate layer 121 and / or the second substrate layer 122 is a high thermal conductive material.

[0091] In one embodiment, the substrate layer (including the first substrate layer 121 and the second substrate layer 122) is the basic structure of the device, usually composed of a highly doped semiconductor material (such as silicon), which provides physical support for the device, ensuring the stability of the device during manufacturing and use; at the same time, it can also provide good electrical isolation to prevent leakage and parasitic effects. In the embodiment of the present application, by arranging the substrate layer on both sides of the drift layer 110 of the main current channel and using a high thermal conductivity material, the heat generated during the operation of the device can be quickly exported, significantly reducing the thermal stress caused by local overheating, and effectively reducing the operating temperature of the device, realizing the optimization of device thermal management.

[0092] The drain layer 130 is disposed on the back surface of the drift layer 110.

[0093] In one embodiment, the drain layer 130 is the negative electrode region of the power MOS device, usually composed of a highly doped semiconductor material. Its main function is to collect the current transmitted from the drift layer 110 and lead it out to the external circuit. The drain layer 130 is usually connected to the drift layer 110 and jointly bears the high voltage across the device.

[0094] Optionally, the front and back mentioned in the embodiment of the present application are two opposite directions, used to indicate the physical direction of the device and the relative position of the functional layers.

[0095] Optionally, the front can be the side surface corresponding to the first direction of the MOS device, and the back can be the side surface opposite to the front, that is, the side surface far from the first direction.

[0096] Optionally, the front can also be the surface that is first processed during the manufacturing process of the device, and the back can be the surface opposite to the front.

[0097] The first channel layer 141 and the second channel layer 142 are respectively disposed on the front surfaces of the first substrate layer 121 and the second substrate layer 122.

[0098] In one embodiment, the channel layer (including the first channel layer 141 and the second channel layer 142) is the thin layer region for conducting current in the MOS device, usually located under the gate layer. In an N-channel MOS device, the channel layer is formed by a P-type semiconductor material to form an inversion layer (i.e., an N-type conductive channel) under the action of the gate voltage, thereby allowing current to flow from the source to the drain. In a P-channel MOS device, the channel layer is formed by an N-type semiconductor material to form an inversion layer (i.e., a P-type conductive channel) under the action of the gate voltage.

[0099] The P-type well 151 is disposed between the first channel layer 141 and the second channel layer 142. An N-type doping region 152 is formed inside the P-type well 151, and a P-type doping region 153 is formed inside the N-type doping region 152.

[0100] In one embodiment, in an N-channel MOS device, the P-type well 151 is used to isolate different device units and prevent parasitic effects. It provides a substrate for the N-type source and drain. Meanwhile, under the action of the gate voltage, an inversion layer, i.e., an N-type conductive channel, will be formed on the surface of the P-type well 151. And the highly doped N-type region formed inside the P-type well 151 through diffusion or ion implantation processes can form a PN junction with the P-type well 151. When the gate voltage is high enough, the inversion layer on the surface of the P-type well 151 will connect these N-type doped regions 152 to form a conductive channel. And the P-type doped region 153 formed inside the N-type doped region 152 can form a body diode junction with the N-type substrate. When the power MOS device bears a reverse voltage or the current needs to flow in the reverse direction, the body diode can conduct to play a freewheeling role and protect the power MOS device from damage by reverse voltage and current.

[0101] The gate structure 160 is disposed on the front surfaces of the first channel layer 141 and the second channel layer 142.

[0102] In one embodiment, the gate structure 160 is the core control part of the power MOS device and can control the on and off states of the device by applying a voltage. For example, when the gate voltage reaches the threshold voltage, a conductive channel will be formed on the semiconductor surface under the gate, allowing current to flow from the source to the drain. And the change of the gate voltage determines the switching speed and dynamic characteristics of the device.

[0103] Exemplarily, the gate structure 160 includes a first gate structure 160 (not shown in the drawings) and a second gate structure 160 (not shown in the drawings), and are respectively disposed on the front surfaces of the first channel layer 141 and the second channel layer 142.

[0104] The dielectric layer 170 is disposed on the front surface of the gate structure 160 and wraps the gate structure 160; the dielectric layer 170 is provided with a connection hole 171.

[0105] In one embodiment, the main function of the dielectric layer 170 is to isolate the gate structure 160, prevent current leakage, and ensure that the gate voltage can effectively regulate the formation of the channel. And a high-quality dielectric layer 170 can withstand high voltages and prevent breakdown, thereby improving the breakdown voltage capability of the device.

[0106] Optionally, the dielectric layer 170 is provided with a connection hole 171, and the N-type doped region 152 and the P-type doped region 153 are exposed through the connection hole 171.

[0107] Exemplarily, the dielectric layer 170 includes a first dielectric layer 170 (not shown in the drawings) and a second dielectric layer 170 (not shown in the drawings), and are respectively disposed on the front surfaces of the first gate structure 160 and the second gate structure 160, and respectively wrap the first gate structure 160 and the second gate structure 160.

[0108] The source layer 180 is disposed on the front surface of the dielectric layer 170 and contacts the N-type doped region 152 and the P-type doped region 153 through the via hole 171.

[0109] In one embodiment, the source layer 180 is the current outflow end of the power MOS device and is usually composed of a highly doped N-type or P-type semiconductor material. In an N-channel MOS device, the source serves as the electron injection end; in a P-channel MOS device, the source serves as the hole injection end.

[0110] In a feasible embodiment, the material of the first substrate layer 121 and / or the second substrate layer 122 includes: diamond. As an emerging semiconductor material, diamond exhibits significant advantages in terms of heat conduction and high breakdown field strength when used as a substrate material in MOS devices. First of all, diamond has an extremely high thermal conductivity. The thermal conductivity of single-crystal diamond is as high as 2400 W / (m·K) at room temperature, and the thermal conductivity of polycrystalline diamond is also close to 2000 W / (m·K). This property makes it an ideal heat dissipation substrate. In power devices, diamond can quickly conduct heat away from the active region, effectively reducing the device operating temperature, thereby improving the performance and reliability of the device. In addition, diamond has an extremely high breakdown field strength, reaching 10 MV / cm, which is 17 times that of gallium arsenide, 2 times that of gallium nitride, and 2.5 times that of silicon carbide. This high breakdown field strength property enables diamond to perform excellently in high-voltage and high-power application scenarios, significantly enhancing the voltage withstand capacity and power capacity of the device. At the same time, the wide bandgap (5.47 eV) and high carrier mobility (the electron mobility can reach 4500 cm 2 / V·s) of diamond further enhance its application potential in high-frequency and high-power semiconductor devices. At the same time, through the selection of high thermal conductivity materials and the setting of the position of the substrate structure, when the size of the MOS device is reduced to the micro-nano scale, it can still maintain good performance.

[0111] In a feasible embodiment, the power MOS device further includes: a gate dielectric 161 disposed between the gate structure 160 and the channel layer, wherein the channel layer includes a first channel layer 141 and / or a second channel layer 142. The most basic function of the gate dielectric 161 is to act as an insulating layer to isolate the gate from the channel layer. This insulating effect can prevent the gate current from directly flowing into the semiconductor substrate, thereby ensuring the voltage control characteristics of the device.

[0112] In a feasible embodiment, the thickness of the drift layer 110 is 10 to 15 μm; for example, the thickness of the drift layer 110 is 10 μm, 11 μm, 12 μm, 13 μm, 14 μm, 15 μm, etc.

[0113] In a feasible embodiment, the thicknesses of the first channel layer 141 and the second channel layer 142 are 3 to 7 μm; for example, 3 μm, 4 μm, 5 μm, 6 μm, 7 μm, etc.

[0114] In a feasible embodiment, the thickness of the gate structure 160 is 0.1 to 0.5 μm; for example, the thickness of the gate structure 160 is 0.1 μm, 0.2 μm, 0.3 μm, 0.4 μm, 0.5 μm, etc.

[0115] In a feasible embodiment, the thickness of the dielectric layer 170 is 0.4 to 0.8 μm; for example, the thickness of the dielectric layer 170 is 0.4 μm, 0.5 μm, 0.6 μm, 0.7 μm, 0.8 μm, etc.

[0116] In a feasible embodiment, the thickness of the source layer 180 is 1 to 3 μm; for example, the thickness of the source layer 180 is 1 μm, 1.5 μm, 2 μm, 2.5 μm, 3 μm, etc.
