Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of semiconductor technology, and in particular to a separated-gate trench MOSFET structure and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Power field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) are widely used in power systems requiring high efficiency due to their high input impedance, low switching power consumption, and high switching speed. The split-gate trench MOSFET (SGT MOS) is a trench-gate MOSFET (Trench MOS) with a split-gate structure connected to the source. By optimizing the electric field distribution in the drift region, the MOS device achieves both high breakdown voltage and low on-resistance.

[0003] Currently, by introducing a three-layer epitaxial structure and an electric field spike in the drift region of an SGT MOSFET, the device's breakdown voltage can be increased without increasing on-resistance. However, since the electric field spike introduced by the low-resistivity middle epitaxial layer in the three-layer epitaxial structure can also cause the outermost trench of the terminal structure to experience voltage breakdown due to the electric field strength exceeding the maximum breakdown field strength in the middle low-resistivity layer. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the thickness of the trench bottom oxide layer to reduce the excessive electric field strength and avoid a decrease in the maximum off-state voltage of the MOS device due to the low withstand voltage of the terminal structure.

[0004] However, a thicker trench bottom oxide layer not only increases the unit cell size of the SGT MOSFET device, but also requires a larger terminal structure size to withstand the lateral voltage at the chip edge due to the reduction of the electric field strength in the low-resistivity layer area in the middle of the terminal structure trench, resulting in a larger chip area or increased on-resistance.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0071] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0072] like Figure 12 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a split-gate trench MOSFET structure, comprising:

[0073] Substrate 1;

[0074] A first N-type epitaxial layer 2 and a second N-type epitaxial layer 3 sequentially deposited on a substrate;

[0075] A P-type doped region 41, formed on the second N-type epitaxial layer 3;

[0076] A third N-type epitaxial layer 5, the third N-type epitaxial layer being deposited on the second N-type epitaxial layer forming the P-type doping region;

[0077] A floating junction structure 42, which is composed of a P-type doped region 41, a first N-type epitaxial layer 2, a second N-type epitaxial layer 3 and a third N-type epitaxial layer 5;

[0078] A trench structure is formed on an N-type drift region formed by a first N-type epitaxial layer 2, a second N-type epitaxial layer 3, and a third N-type epitaxial layer 5. The trench structure includes a plurality of active region trenches 61 and a plurality of terminal region trenches 62. The centerline of each terminal region trench 62 coincides with the centerline of the corresponding floating junction structure 42, and the floating junction structure 42 surrounds the portion of the terminal region trench 62 located in the second N-type epitaxial layer 3. The space charge region formed by the P-type impurity doped region 41 in the floating junction structure 42 and the second N-type epitaxial layer 3 is configured to withstand high electric field strength.

[0079] A bottom oxide layer 7, an active region polycrystalline structure 8, and a terminal region polycrystalline structure 9 are sequentially formed in the active region trench 61 and the terminal region trench 62;

[0080] An intermediate oxide layer 10 is formed on the active area polycrystalline structure;

[0081] Gate polysilicon 12, formed on the active area trench;

[0082] A shielding oxide layer 13 is formed on the gate polysilicon;

[0083] A front metal electrode 16 is formed on the wafer in the N+ type source region;

[0084] The back metal electrode 17 is formed on the bottom surface of the substrate.

[0085] In the split-gate trench MOSFET structure of this embodiment, the floating junction structure is located in the second low-resistivity N-type epitaxial layer in the middle of the three-layer epitaxial structure. The geometric centerline of the trench etching pattern of the terminal structure is aligned with the geometric centerline of the P-type doped impurity region locally implanted in the second N-type epitaxial layer, so that the area in the middle of the terminal trench that originally contacted the middle low-resistivity epitaxial layer is surrounded by the P-type doped impurity region and has symmetrical dimensions on the left and right.

[0086] When the MOS device is in the off state and subjected to a high drain-source voltage, the space charge region formed by the P-type impurity-doped region and the second low-resistivity epitaxial layer is subjected to a high electric field strength, thereby preventing the oxide layer at the bottom of the terminal structure trench from being subjected to an excessively high electric field strength in the second low-resistivity epitaxial layer and causing breakdown. This enables the terminal structure trench of the MOS device to withstand a higher blocking voltage at the same oxide layer thickness, reducing the size of the MOS cell, thereby reducing the chip area or achieving a lower on-resistance at the same chip area.

[0087] At the same time, since the introduction of the P-type floating junction structure expands the electric field distribution of the space charge region between the terminal trenches, the voltage resistance of the MOS device can be met at a smaller terminal structure size, reducing the chip area occupied by the terminal structure, thereby reducing the chip area or achieving lower on-resistance at the same chip area.

[0088] Based on the same general inventive concept, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for preparing the split-gate trench MOSFET structure of the above embodiment, which mainly includes the following steps:

[0089] 101. Figure 1 As shown. An N+ silicon substrate 1 is selected, and a first N-type epitaxial layer 2 and a second N-type epitaxial layer 3 are sequentially deposited on the N+ silicon substrate 1, wherein the first N-type epitaxial layer has a higher resistivity and the second N-type epitaxial layer has a lower resistivity. The resistivity of the first N-type epitaxial layer 2 is greater than the resistivity of the second N-type epitaxial layer 3.

[0090] 102. Figure 2 On the second N-type epitaxial layer 3 with a relatively low resistivity, an implantation window is formed by photolithography and etching, and P-type dopants are implanted through the implantation window to form a P-type doped region 41 in the second epitaxial layer 3 .

[0091] 103. Figure 3 As shown. On the second N-type epitaxial layer 3 partially implanted with a P-type doped region, a third N-type epitaxial layer 5 with an intermediate resistivity value is continuously deposited. The P-type doped region 41 forms a floating junction structure 42 with the first N-type epitaxial layer 2, the second N-type epitaxial layer 3, and the third N-type epitaxial layer 5. The resistivity of the third N-type epitaxial layer is greater than that of the second N-type epitaxial layer.

[0092] By introducing a three-layer epitaxial layer structure with different resistivities and introducing an electric field spike in the drift region of the SGT MOS, the breakdown voltage of the device can be improved without increasing the on-resistance.

[0093] 104. Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the first N-type epitaxial layer 2, the second N-type epitaxial layer 3, and the third N-type epitaxial layer 5 serve as the N-type drift region. The N-type drift region is subjected to photolithography and etching processes to form a trench structure with a depth of 3mm-7mm and a width of 0.5mm-2.0mm. The trench structure includes multiple active area trenches 61 and multiple termination area trenches 62. The centerline of each termination area trench 62 coincides with the centerline of the corresponding floating junction structure 42 in the second N-type epitaxial layer 3, and the floating junction structure uniformly surrounds the portion of the termination area trench located in the second N-type epitaxial layer.

[0094] 105. Figure 5 A bottom oxide layer 7 with a thickness of 0.3 mm to 0.6 mm is formed in the active area trench 61 and the terminal area trench 62 by sequentially performing thermal growth and deposition processes, so that the floating junction structure 42 surrounds the bottom oxide layer 7 in the middle of the trench.

[0095] When the MOS device is in the off state and is subjected to a high drain-source voltage, the space charge region formed by the P-type floating junction structure 42 and the second low-resistivity epitaxial layer is subjected to a high electric field strength, which reduces the electric field strength borne by the bottom oxide layer 7 in the middle of the trench, thereby avoiding the breakdown of the bottom oxide layer of the terminal structure trench due to excessive electric field strength in the second low-resistivity epitaxial layer, so that the terminal structure trench of the MOS device can withstand a higher blocking voltage under the same oxide layer thickness.

[0096] 106. Figure 6 Polysilicon is deposited on the wafer surface where the bottom oxide layer 7 is formed to fill the trench structure, and the polysilicon in the trench structure is subjected to photolithography and etching processes to form an active area polycrystalline structure 8 and a terminal area polycrystalline structure 9 respectively.

[0097] 107. Figure 7 The trench structure is filled again with an oxide layer deposition process to remove excess oxide layer on the silicon surface, and the deposited oxide layer in the active area trench is photolithographically and etched to form an intermediate oxide layer 10 with a thickness of 0.3-0.6 mm on the active area polycrystalline structure 8.

[0098] 108. Figure 8As shown, a dry oxygen oxidation process is used to thermally grow an oxide layer on the sidewalls of the active area trench 61 to form a gate oxide layer structure 11 with a thickness of 0.04mm-0.09mm. Then, a polysilicon deposition process is used to fill the active area trench 61 to form a gate polycrystalline structure 12. A dry oxygen oxidation process is performed again to form a shield oxide layer 13 with a thickness of 0.05-0.1mm on top of the gate polycrystalline structure 12.

[0099] 109. Figure 9 As shown, a global P-base implant is performed on the silicon surface, with an implantation energy of 60KeV-150KeV and an implantation dose IMP1 of 0.6E13-1.5E13. After the ion implantation of the P-base region 14 is completed, the base region is annealed at a temperature of 1000°C-1150°C for 30-120 minutes.

[0100] Arsenic ions are implanted into the active region as an N+ source region. After the implantation of arsenic ions into the source region, annealing is performed at a temperature of 950-1000° C. for 90-120 minutes to form an N+ source region 15 .

[0101] 110. Figure 10 A dielectric oxide layer with a thickness of 1.0 mm to 1.5 mm is deposited on the wafer where the N+ type source region 15 is formed, and then a metal electrode contact hole is formed on the dielectric oxide layer by photolithography.

[0102] The BF2 injection process is carried out in the source electrode contact area through the metal electrode contact hole, and annealing is performed after the injection; the injection energy is 60-80KeV, the injection dose is 3E14-5E14, the annealing temperature is 900-1000℃, and the annealing time is 20-30min.

[0103] Then, an AlSiCu metal layer with a thickness of 4-6 μm is deposited on the upper surface of the wafer where the metal electrode contact hole is formed, and a front metal electrode 16 is formed by photolithography and etching processes.

[0104] 111. Figure 11 As shown. A passivation layer is deposited on the electrode structure, and a passivation structure 17 is formed by photolithography and etching processes; a Ti / Ni / Ag metal layer is evaporated on the lower surface of the silicon substrate 1 to form a back metal electrode 18, completing the preparation of the split-gate trench MOSFET structure, as shown. Figure 12 , which is a schematic diagram of the structure of the prepared split-gate trench MOSFET.
