[0042] This application provides a power device. Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional schematic diagram of a power device provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a power device provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 3 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of another power device provided in an embodiment of this application, with reference to... Figures 1-3 Power devices include: The semiconductor body 10, configured for a first conductivity type, includes a first surface 101 and a second surface 102 disposed opposite to each other. The semiconductor body also includes a well region 15, a first region 11, and a second region 12. The first surface 101 has a gate trench 16. The first region 11 is configured for the first conductivity type and is located on the first surface 101. The well region 15 is configured for the second conductivity type and is located on the side of the first region 11 away from the first surface 101. The second region 12 is configured for the second conductivity type and extends from the bottom of the gate trench 16 to the gate. The sidewall of the trench 16 covers a portion of the sidewall of the gate trench 16; the second region 12 includes an inclined portion 1, which is disposed at the corner of the gate trench 16. The inclined portion 1 is inclined relative to the sidewall of the gate trench 16, and the inclined portion 1 includes a first end adjacent to the first surface 101 and a second end adjacent to the second surface 102. Along the first direction X, the second end is further away from the sidewall of the gate trench 16 than the first end; wherein, along the first direction X, the well region 15 is disposed on one or both sides of the gate trench 16, and the first conductivity type and the second conductivity type are different.

[0043] Gate 20 is located within gate trench 16.

[0044] Source electrode 30 is located on the first surface 101 and is connected to the first region 11.

[0045] Drain 40 is located on the second surface 102.

[0046] The power device can be a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) device. One of the first conductivity type and the second conductivity type is N-type and the other is P-type. If the device is an N-type device, the first conductivity type is N-type, the second conductivity type is P-type, the well region 15 can be a P-type well region, the first region 11 can be an N+ source region, the second region 12 can be a P-region, and the third region 13 can be an N-region. If the device is a P-type device, the first conductivity type is P-type, and the second conductivity type is N-type. The semiconductor body 10 can be made of silicon carbide (SiC), and the power device in this embodiment can be a SiC MOSFET device. The gate 20 can be made of polysilicon, and the source 30 and drain 40 can be made of metal materials; for example, the metal material includes aluminum. The first direction X is the width direction of the gate trench 16.

[0047] Specifically, the inclined portion 1 is inclined relative to the sidewall of the gate trench 16, and along the first direction X, the second end is further away from the sidewall of the gate trench 16 than the first end, so that the inclined portion 1 can cover more of the sidewall of the gate trench 16. When the voltage difference between the source 30 and the gate 20 meets the conduction condition, a conductive channel is formed in the area where the well region 15 contacts the gate trench 16, and the device is forward-conducting. When the voltage difference between the source 30 and the gate 20 does not meet the conduction condition, the device is reverse-blocked. The second region 12 extends from the bottom of the gate trench 16 to the sidewall of the gate trench 16. The second region 12 can suppress the high electric field at the bottom and corner of the gate trench 16, avoid local breakdown of the gate insulating layer, and improve the breakdown voltage of the device.

[0048] The semiconductor body of this application embodiment includes a well region 15, a first region 11, and a second region 12. A gate trench 16 is provided on the first surface 101. The second region 12 is configured with a second conductivity type. The second region 12 extends from the bottom of the gate trench 16 to the sidewall of the gate trench 16. The second region 12 includes an inclined portion 1, which is disposed at the corner of the gate trench 16. The inclined portion 1 is inclined relative to the sidewall of the gate trench 16. Along the first direction X, the second end is further away from the sidewall of the gate trench 16 than the first end, so that the second region 12 can cover more of the sidewall of the gate trench 16. When the device is reverse blocked, the second region 12 can suppress the high electric field at the bottom and corner of the gate trench 16, avoid local breakdown of the gate insulating layer, improve the breakdown voltage of the device, and improve the reliability of the device.

[0049] Based on the above embodiments, optionally, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The semiconductor body 10 also includes a third region 13, which is configured with a first conductivity type; the third region 13 is disposed within the second region 12, and / or disposed within the region enclosed by the second region 12 and the gate trench 16.

[0050] Specifically, the second region 12 and the third region 13 completely cover the bottom and corners of the gate trench 16. The third region 13 is used for carrier interaction with the second region 12, such as receiving holes from the second region 12 or providing holes to the second region 12, to maintain the stability and reliability of the device. For example, when the potential of the drain 40 is higher than the potential of the source 30, the holes in the second region 12 and the electrons in the third region 13 form electron-hole pairs, thereby suppressing hole accumulation and avoiding excessive local electric field; when the potential of the source 30 is higher than the potential of the drain 40, the electrons in the third region 13 are separated through electron-hole pairs, sending the holes back to the second region 12, thereby maintaining the charge balance of the second region 12, preventing charge drift or potential shift, and thus maintaining the stability and reliability of the device.

[0051] refer to Figure 3 Based on the above embodiments, optionally, the second region 12 includes a first main body 02 and a connecting part 17. The first main body 02 extends from the bottom of the gate trench 16 to the sidewall of the gate trench 16, covering part of the sidewall of the gate trench 16. The connecting part 17 extends from the first surface 101 to the sidewall of the gate trench 16 and is connected to the first main body 02.

[0052] Specifically, the connection portion 17 can be a P-region. When the semiconductor body 10 includes the connection portion 17, the connection portion 17 extends through the sidewall of the gate trench 16 to the first surface 101 and is connected to the source 30. The first body portion 02 covers the bottom and corners of the gate trench 16. When the device is reverse blocked, the potential of the source 30 is zero, and the first body portion 02 is connected to the source 30 through the connection portion 17. The potentials of the connection portion 17 and the first body portion 02 are zero (grounded), avoiding complex manufacturing processes and the instability of the device caused by the ungrounded second region 12. At the same time, it protects the gate insulating layer at the corners and bottom of the gate trench 16, preventing premature breakdown of the device due to strong electric fields, improving the reliability of the device, and maintaining the stability and reliability of the device.

[0053] Each gate trench 16 may have a connection portion 17 on one or two sidewalls, and one or more connection portions 17 may be provided on the same sidewall. For example, a gate trench 16 may have only one connection portion 17 on one sidewall to avoid the connection portion 17 covering too large an area of ​​the gate trench 16, which would affect the channel on-resistance.

[0054] Figure 4 This is a top view schematic diagram of a semiconductor device provided in an embodiment of this application. Optionally, based on the above embodiments, refer to... Figures 2-4 The second region 12 includes a second main body 03 and a connecting portion 17. The second main body 03 extends from the bottom of the gate trench 16 to the sidewall of the gate trench 16, covering part of the sidewall of the gate trench 16. The connecting portion 17 extends from the first surface 101 to the sidewall of the gate trench 16 and is connected to the second main body 03. The semiconductor body 10 also includes a third region 13, which is configured with a first conductivity type; the third region 13 is disposed within the second main body portion 03, and / or disposed within the area enclosed by the second main body portion 03 and the gate trench 16.

[0055] Specifically, in the semiconductor device of this embodiment, the second region 12 includes a connection portion 17, and the semiconductor body 10 includes a third region 13. A cross-section is taken at different positions of the gate trench 16 along the length direction (second direction Y) of the gate trench 16, and the cross-section is perpendicular to the length direction of the gate trench 16. Figure 2 The sectional view corresponding to section line AA is shown. Figure 3The sectional view corresponding to section line BB is shown.

[0056] The semiconductor body 10 includes a third region 13, which has a different conductivity type than the second region 12. The third region is disposed within the second main body portion 03, and / or within the area enclosed by the second main body portion 03 and the gate trench 16. The third region 13 can recombine and separate electron-hole pairs with the second region 12, which can suppress hole accumulation, avoid excessive local electric field, and maintain the stability and reliability of the device. The second region 12 includes a connection portion 17, which is connected to the source 30. When the device is reverse blocked, the potential of the source 30 is zero, and the potential of the second region 12 is zero (grounded), which can better maintain the stability and reliability of the device.

[0057] Based on the above embodiments, optionally, refer to Figures 1-4 Along the second direction Y, the third region 13 and the connecting part 17 are arranged alternately; wherein, the second direction Y is perpendicular to the first direction X and the third direction Z, and the third direction X is the direction from the first surface 101 to the second surface 102.

[0058] This configuration can better suppress hole accumulation, avoid excessive local electric field, and maintain the stability and reliability of the device.

[0059] Based on the above embodiments, optionally, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 When the semiconductor body includes the third region 13, the second region 12 includes the first sub-region 121 and the second sub-region 122 that are interconnected, and the third region 13 includes the third sub-region 131 and the fourth sub-region 132. The first sub-region 121 is located at the corner of the gate trench 16, and the second sub-region 122 is located at the bottom of the gate trench 16; the first sub-region 121 is an inclined portion 1; The third sub-region 131 is located within the area enclosed by the first sub-region 121 and the trench corner of the gate trench 16; the fourth sub-region 132 is located within the second sub-region 122.

[0060] Specifically, the first sub-region 121 and the third sub-region 131 cover the corners of the gate trench 16. For example, the first sub-region 121 and the third sub-region 131 are in contact with the insulating layer 50 within the gate trench 16. Covering the corners of the gate trench 16 with the first sub-region 121 and the third sub-region 131 can better suppress the high electric field at the corners of the gate trench 16. The second sub-region 122 is disposed at the bottom of the gate trench 16, covering the bottom region of the adjacent gate trench 16. For example, the second sub-region 122 is in contact with the insulating layer 50 within the gate trench 16, and the second sub-region 122 can better suppress the high electric field at the bottom of the gate trench 16. By setting the third sub-region 131 and the fourth sub-region 132 in the first sub-region 121 and the second sub-region 122 respectively, the third region 13 can better interact with the second region 12 for charge carriers, thereby better maintaining the stability and reliability of the device.

[0061] Based on the above embodiments, optionally, the angle A between the line connecting the geometric centers of the first sub-region 121 and the third sub-region 131 and the sidewall of the gate trench 16 is greater than 0, and along the first direction X, the geometric center of the first sub-region 121 is farther away from the gate trench 16 than the geometric center of the third sub-region 131.

[0062] Specifically, the first sub-region 121 and the third sub-region 131 are inclined relative to the sidewall of the gate trench 16. Along the first direction X, the end of the first sub-region 121 adjacent to the second surface 102 is inclined away from the gate trench 16. The first sub-region 121 and the third sub-region 131 can be formed using a halo implantation process.

Removing the intermediate layer 73 can form a second sub-layer 72 with a suitable coverage area, which is a simple process.

Figure 21 and Figure 22The fourth sublayer 74 includes an opening 741 that exposes a portion of the sidewall of the gate trench 16, i.e., a predetermined region of exposed sidewalls. This predetermined region extends from the first surface of the semiconductor structure layer to the bottom of the gate trench 16. Ion implantation of the exposed sidewalls forms a first predetermined sub-region 123, and ion implantation of the exposed sidewalls forms a connection portion 17 connected to the first predetermined sub-region 123. By including the opening 741 in the fourth sublayer 74, the first predetermined sub-region 123 and the connection portion 17 can be formed simultaneously in a single implantation process, reducing process steps.
