Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of semiconductor device technology, specifically to a trench-gate silicon carbide MOSFET device and its fabrication method. Background Technology

[0002] Silicon carbide (SiC) is a representative of third-generation semiconductor materials, possessing characteristics such as a large bandgap, high critical avalanche breakdown field strength, high thermal conductivity, and strong radiation resistance, making it a promising candidate for high-voltage, high-power power electronic systems. MOSFETs are the most widely used gate-controlled device structure among SiC power devices. Because SiC MOSFETs operate on a unipolar transport mechanism, only one type of charge carrier (electrons or holes) conducts electricity, eliminating charge storage effects. Therefore, compared to bipolar devices, they exhibit lower switching losses and higher frequency characteristics. Furthermore, their low on-resistance and excellent high-temperature characteristics make SiC MOSFETs a highly competitive new generation of low-loss power devices.

[0003] Currently, commercially available silicon carbide MOSFETs mainly fall into two structural types: trench and planar. Trench-type silicon carbide MOSFETs, due to their higher channel density and channel mobility, exhibit lower conduction losses and represent an important development direction for silicon carbide MOSFETs. Compared to Si-based devices, silicon carbide MOSFETs not only have smaller chip areas and higher current densities, but also poorer forward current saturation characteristics. This results in a short-circuit peak current that is 6 times or more of the rated current, while that of Si IGBTs is only about 4 times. Therefore, the short-circuit withstand time of silicon carbide MOSFET devices is more than half that of Si IGBTs.

[0004] Furthermore, due to the high forward PN junction voltage drop of silicon carbide bulk diodes, silicon carbide MOSFETs will generate higher power consumption when reverse biased. Long-term use will also lead to their unique bipolar degradation problem, affecting the efficiency and reliability of power electronic systems. The current mainstream solution is to connect an external silicon carbide Schottky barrier diode (SBD) in parallel, but this method is subject to parasitic inductance and increases cost and size. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention proposes a trench-gate silicon carbide MOSFET device and its fabrication method. By introducing a source-stepped trench and a P-type shielding layer, a self-biased pMOS is formed together with the CSL region, P-base region, and P-type ohmic contact region. A freewheeling nMOS is formed together with the CSL region, P-base region, and N-type ohmic contact region. In reverse conduction, the source-trench freewheeling nMOS conducts, suppressing bipolar conduction of the body diode and improving the long-term reliability of the device. In short-circuit state, the pMOS is turned on, the P-type shielding layer is grounded, and the depletion region rapidly widens, forming a pinch-off with the depletion region of the P-type shielding region at the bottom of the trench gate, limiting the current path, reducing saturation current, and improving the device's short-circuit capability. In blocking state, the pMOS is turned on, the P-type shielding layer is grounded, effectively reducing the oxide layer electric field strength. In forward conduction, the pMOS is turned off, the P-type shielding layer floats, reducing the JFET resistance caused by grounding the P+ shielding layer, and optimizing the device's on-resistance and dynamic conduction loss.

[0066] To suppress bipolar conduction of the body diode in silicon carbide MOSFETs and reduce the on-state voltage drop in the third quadrant, the trench-type silicon carbide MOSFET of this invention introduces a source stepped trench and a P-type shielding layer, which together with the CSL region, P-base region and N-type ohmic contact region form a freewheeling nMOS. When reverse turn-on, the freewheeling nMOS has a lower turn-on voltage, suppressing body diode conduction, improving the bipolar degradation effect of silicon carbide devices, and effectively improving the long-term operational reliability of the device.

[0067] To improve the oxide layer reliability of silicon carbide MOSFET devices while ensuring forward conduction capability and low switching losses, the trench-type silicon carbide MOSFET of this invention introduces a source stepped trench and a P-type shielding layer, forming a self-biased pMOS with the CSL region, P-base region, and P-type ohmic contact region. In the forward conduction state, the P-type shielding layer is in a floating state, reducing the JFET resistance caused by grounding the P+ shielding layer, and optimizing the device's on-resistance and dynamic switching losses. In the blocking state, the pMOS is turned on, the P-type shielding layer is grounded, effectively reducing the oxide layer electric field strength and improving the device's oxide layer reliability.

[0068] To improve the short-circuit withstand time of silicon carbide MOSFETs, the trench-type silicon carbide MOSFET of the present invention introduces a self-biased pMOS and a P-type shielding region at the bottom of the trench gate. When the pMOS is turned on and the P-type shielding layer is grounded, the depletion region widens rapidly, forming a pinch-off with the depletion region of the P-type shielding region at the bottom of the trench gate, limiting the current path, reducing the saturation current, and effectively improving the short-circuit capability of the device.

The method for fabricating a trench-type silicon carbide MOSFET device according to any one of claims 1 to 7, characterized in that, Includes the following steps: Step 1: Clean the epitaxial wafer, and form a current spreading layer by epitaxy or N-type ion implantation on the N-type drift region; Step 2: Ion implantation to form a P-type base region; Step 3: Aluminum ion implantation to form the P+ ohmic contact region; Step 4: Inject nitrogen ions to form an N+ ohmic contact region and activate annealing; Step 6: Etch the gate trench and source trench, and etch again at the source trench location to form a secondary stepped source trench; Step 7: Aluminum ion implantation is performed at the bottom of the etched gate trench and the secondary step source trench to form a P+ shielding layer; Step 6: Dry oxygen oxidation to generate a gate oxide layer, followed by annealing and deposition of polysilicon in a nitrogen atmosphere; Step 7: Deposit interlayer dielectric and perform etching; Step 8: Etch source contact holes, deposit metal, and alloy; etch gate contact holes, deposit metal, and alloy; deposit metal on the back side and alloy.
