Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electronic components technology, and in particular to a high-voltage, high-current SiC MOSFET chip and its fabrication process. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy industry, the performance requirements of core components in power electronic systems are constantly increasing. Traditional silicon-based power devices, due to their narrow bandgap, low breakdown electric field, and other defects such as high on-resistance, poor high-temperature resistance, and low energy conversion efficiency, are difficult to meet the application requirements of high-voltage and high-current scenarios. For example, in the field of DC charging piles, the system conversion efficiency caused by silicon-based IGBTs is usually below 95%, and their large size and high heat dissipation costs limit the miniaturization and high efficiency development of charging piles.

[0003] Silicon carbide (SiC), as a third-generation wide-bandgap semiconductor material, possesses advantages such as a large bandgap, high breakdown electric field, and high thermal conductivity. MOSFET devices based on SiC exhibit significant advantages in high-voltage, high-current, and high-temperature applications, making them a core alternative to silicon-based devices. Currently, 1200V-class SiC MOSFETs are gradually being applied in DC charging piles, SVG, and other fields. However, existing technologies still face the following key challenges:

[0004] Uneven electric field distribution and insufficient breakdown reliability: Existing SiC MOSFETs often employ uniform doping or single-gradient doping designs for their buffer layers. This leads to the electric field concentrating at the interfaces between the substrate and the buffer layer, and between the buffer layer and the drift region, during device operation. Excessively high local electric field peaks can easily trigger early breakdown, reducing the device's breakdown voltage reliability. For example, the peak electric field of a traditional single-buffer layer structure can reach over 1.8 MV / cm, far exceeding the material's safety threshold, resulting in a large breakdown voltage fluctuation range.

[0005] The challenge of balancing specific on-resistance and gate oxide reliability: To reduce specific on-resistance, existing technologies often increase the doping concentration of the current spreading layer or reduce the thickness of the drift region. However, high doping concentration leads to an enhanced electric field near the gate oxide, exacerbating the generation of gate oxide interface states. Meanwhile, traditional gate oxides often use a single SiO2 material, whose density of states at the SiC interface is as high as 1×10⁻⁶. 12 ~5×10 12 cm -2 eV -1 This results in low channel migration rates (typically below 100cm). 2 It has a low density ( / V·s) and is prone to gate oxide breakdown under high pressure or high temperature, resulting in poor reliability.

[0006] Weak surge protection: In applications such as DC charging piles, surge currents are generated when the system starts up or stops or the load changes suddenly. The current spread layer design of existing SiC MOSFETs is unreasonable, which causes the current to concentrate near the source bonding line, resulting in a sudden increase in local temperature and easy failures such as source metal melting and gate-source short circuit. In addition, the lack of an effective high-temperature protection structure on the device surface further exacerbates the risk of failure under surge impact.

[0007] Low thermal management efficiency: SiC MOSFETs generate a large amount of Joule heat when operating at high current. Existing heat sinks are mostly made of copper or aluminum, with a thermal conductivity of only 380-420 W·m. -1 ·K -1 Low heat dissipation efficiency leads to excessively high junction temperatures, which not only reduces device performance but also shortens its lifespan. Although diamond has extremely high thermal conductivity, the interfacial bonding between diamond and metal electrodes is poor, resulting in high thermal resistance and hindering practical applications.

[0008] Poor consistency of fabrication process: The existing annealing process after ion implantation lacks real-time monitoring methods, and the activation rate of doped ions fluctuates greatly, resulting in large dispersion of device parameters; at the same time, the deposition process of the gate dielectric layer (such as CVD) is difficult to precisely control the thickness and uniformity, which further reduces the yield of the device. Summary of the Invention

[0009] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is how to provide a high-voltage, high-current SiC MOSFET chip with excellent electrical performance, high reliability, efficient thermal management and good consistency, and its fabrication process.

[0010] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a high-voltage, high-current SiC MOSFET chip, the chip comprising a substrate layer at the bottom layer, a double-gradient multi-buffer layer formed on the upper surface of the substrate layer, and an N-type multi-buffer layer formed on the upper surface of the double-gradient multi-buffer layer. - Drift region, the N - A gradient-doped current-spreading layer with protrusions is formed on the upper surface of the drift region. Cell regions are formed on both sides of the protrusions in the gradient-doped current-spreading layer, comprising two symmetrically distributed cell units. Each cell unit includes a P... + The base region, the P + A P is formed on the base region + Region and an N + In the source region, the gate structure is located on the upper surface of the boss, and the gate is connected to two N-type nodes. + The source region is connected, with the source located on both sides of the gate and connected to the N-terminal on one side. + Source region and P +The region is connected, and the gate is not connected to the source; the drain is located on the lower surface of the substrate, and the composite heat sink is attached to the bottom of the drain; the high-temperature barrier layer covers the drained portion between the source and the gate.

[0011] The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are as follows: 1) Excellent electrical performance: device breakdown voltage ≥1250V, rated current ≥125A, conduction resistance ≤14mΩ, switching loss reduced by 30-40%, meeting the needs of high voltage and high current scenarios such as DC charging piles and SVG;

[0013] 3) High-efficiency thermal management: Composite heat sink thermal conductivity ≥600W·m -1 ·K -1 The junction temperature of the device is ≤120℃ under rated current, and the heat dissipation efficiency is improved by more than 50%.

[0014] 4) Good fabrication consistency: Through in-situ monitored annealing, precise ALD deposition and other processes, the device parameter dispersion is ≤3%, and the yield is improved to over 90%;

[0015] 5) Controllable cost: It adopts mature CVD, ALD and other process equipment, without the need for special customized equipment, and reduces the total life cycle cost of the device by improving yield and reliability. Attached Figure Description

[0056] S72, Backside thinning and drain electrode preparation: The sample is flipped over and the backside of the substrate is thinned to a thickness of 100-150 μm using a diamond grinding wheel. Then, Ti layer, Ni layer and Ag layer are deposited sequentially. The deposition process is the same as that of the source electrode. The alloying temperature is 350-400℃ and the time is 20-30 min to form the drain electrode.

[0057] S8, Preparation and bonding of nitrided graphene / diamond composite heat sink:

[0058] S81, diamond substrate preparation: diamond sheets with a thickness of 50-100 μm were prepared by high temperature and high pressure method, and the surface was polished to a roughness of ≤0.2 nm;

[0059] S82, Graphene Nitride Transition Layer Growth: Graphene nitride was grown on the surface of a diamond substrate using plasma-enhanced CVD at a growth temperature of 800–900℃, a pressure of 10–20 Pa, a CH4 flow rate of 5–10 sccm and an N2 flow rate of 20–30 sccm, a radio frequency power of 200–300 W, and a growth time of 30–40 min, forming a graphene nitride transition layer with a thickness of 5–10 nm.

[0060] S83, Preparation of metal particle filling layer: Mix copper or silver particles with polyimide binder, coat the mixture onto the surface of nitrided graphene transition layer with a coating thickness of 20-50 μm, and cure at 200-250℃ for 1-2 h to obtain nitrided graphene / diamond composite heat sink.

[0061] S84, Heat sink bonding: Coat the drain surface with thermally conductive silver paste, bond the metal particle filling layer of the nitrided graphene / diamond composite heat sink with the thermally conductive silver paste, and cure under pressure of 5-10 MPa at 150-200℃ for 30-60 minutes to complete the heat sink bonding.

[0062] S9, High-Temperature Barrier Layer Coating: Tungsten particles, nano-Al2O3 particles, and polyetheretherketone powder are mixed in a specific ratio, and N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) solvent is added. The mixture is stirred to form a uniform slurry, which is then coated onto the exposed surfaces of the front electrode and gate structure using a spin-coating method. The coating speed is 3000–5000 rpm, and the coating time is 30–60 s. The slurry is then cured at 300–350℃ for 2–3 h to form a high-temperature barrier layer with a thickness of 1–3 μm, resulting in a high-voltage, high-current SiC MOSFET chip. The solid content of the high-temperature barrier layer slurry is 40–60 wt%, and the viscosity is 500–1000 cP to ensure coating uniformity.

[0063] In this application, a multi-step CVD method is used for the dual-gradient multi-buffer layer. By precisely controlling the initial flow rate and flow rate increase rate of NH3 gas in each step, buffer sublayers with different concentration gradient coefficients are grown. For example, when growing the first buffer sublayer, the NH3 flow rate increases linearly from 5 sccm to 10 sccm, and when growing the second buffer sublayer, the NH3 flow rate increases linearly from 10 sccm to 20 sccm, ensuring the gradient coefficient of each layer is differentiated. Simultaneously, a graphite support stage (coated with SiC) is used to prevent substrate adhesion and improve the uniformity of the buffer layers.

[0064] The gradient doped current extension layer employs stepwise N-ion implantation at three energies of 10keV, 20keV, and 30keV to form an exponentially decaying concentration distribution. During annealing, the activation rate of N-ions (characteristic peak at 796 cm⁻¹) is monitored in real time using Raman spectroscopy. -1 (Regarding the intensity change), annealing is stopped when the activation rate is ≥95% to avoid crystal damage caused by over-annealing. This process reduces the fluctuation range of ion activation rate from ±5% to ±2%, significantly reducing the dispersion of device parameters.

[0065] The stacked gate dielectric is deposited using the ALD method, consisting of Al2O3, SiO2, and HfO2 layers. The growth rate of each layer is monitored in real-time using a QCM to ensure thickness deviation is ≤5%. For example, during Al2O3 layer deposition, the pulse duration of TMA and H2O is controlled at 0.1–0.2 s, and the purge time is 5–10 s to avoid precursor residue. During SiO2 layer deposition, TEOS and O2 are used as precursors, with an RF power of 100–150 W to improve film density.

[0066] The composite heat sink is fabricated using a diamond base layer prepared by a high-temperature, high-pressure method, followed by CVD growth of a graphene nitride transition layer, and then coating with a metal particle filler layer. Thermally conductive silver paste is used for bonding, and the mixture is cured at 150–200℃ and 5–10 MPa pressure to ensure good interfacial contact and reduce the interfacial thermal resistance to 5 × 10⁻⁶. -5 m 2 • Below K / W.

[0067] In the high-temperature resistant barrier layer, tungsten particles, nano-Al2O3 and polyetheretherketone are mixed in a certain proportion to prepare a slurry with a solid content of 40-60 wt% and a viscosity of 500-1000 cP. A spin-coating speed of 3000-5000 rpm is used to ensure uniform coating. The curing process is carried out by raising the temperature in stages (100℃ / 1h→200℃ / 1h→300℃ / 1h) to avoid the generation of bubbles and improve the density of the barrier layer.
