[0009] The embodiments for carrying out the invention are described below.

[0010] [Description of the embodiments of the present disclosure] First, embodiments of the present disclosure will be listed and described. In the following description, identical or corresponding elements will be given the same reference numerals, and the same description will not be repeated. In the following description, an XYZ Cartesian coordinate system will be used, but this coordinate system is defined for the purpose of explanation and does not limit the orientation of the semiconductor device. The XY plane view will be referred to as a planar view, and the +Z direction from an arbitrary point will sometimes be referred to as upward, upper side, or top, and the -Z direction will sometimes be referred to as downward, lower side, or bottom.

[0011] [1] A semiconductor device according to one embodiment of the present disclosure includes a semiconductor substrate having a first main surface, a gate insulating film provided on the first main surface, a gate electrode provided on the gate insulating film, an interlayer insulating film covering the gate electrode and having a contact hole formed therein, a first electrode provided on the interlayer insulating film, a passivation film covering the first electrode and having an opening formed therein, and a plating film provided on the first electrode within the opening, wherein the interlayer insulating film includes a first insulating film and a second insulating film provided on the first insulating film, the first insulating film being a non-doped silicate glass film, and the second insulating film having a smaller diffusion coefficient of mobile ions than the first insulating film, and the semiconductor device has a first region covering at least an edge of the opening in a plan view perpendicular to the first main surface, and the interlayer insulating film in the first region does not have the contact hole.

[0012] In this case, mobile ions diffusing through the first electrode in the first region toward the gate electrode are captured by the second insulating film, which reduces the diffusion of mobile ions from the first electrode into the gate insulating film compared to when there is a contact hole in the interlayer insulating film in the first region, thereby reducing the fluctuation in threshold voltage.

[0013] [2] In [1], the second insulating film may contain at least one of phosphosilicate glass, boron phosphosilicate glass, and silicon nitride. Phosphosilicate glass, boron phosphosilicate glass, and silicon nitride have high performance in capturing mobile ions. Therefore, it is easy to reduce the diffusion of mobile ions into the gate insulating film.

[0014] [3] In [1] or [2], the plating film may have a corroded portion along the edge of the opening, and the first region may cover at least the entire corroded portion in a plan view perpendicular to the first main surface. In this case, it is easy to reduce diffusion of mobile ions into the gate insulating film.

[0015] [4] In [3], the edge of the opening may extend along a first axis parallel to the first major surface. The width of the first region along a second axis parallel to the first major surface and perpendicular to the first axis may be W1. The width of the corroded portion along the second axis parallel to the first major surface may be W2. The thickness of the first electrode may be T1. The relationship W2 + T1 × 2 ≦ W1 ≦ W2 + T1 × 10 may be satisfied. Mobile ions contained in the corroded portion diffuse along the second axis over a distance at least equal to the thickness of the first electrode. When W2 + T1 × 2 ≦ W1, mobile ions diffusing along the second axis can also be captured by the second insulating film, which makes it easier to reduce the diffusion of mobile ions into the gate insulating film. When W1 ≦ W2 + T1 × 10, the on-resistance is less likely to increase.

[0016] [5] In [4], a width along the second axis from the edge of the opening to an end of the first region within the opening may be 100 μm or less, in which case the on-resistance is less likely to increase.

[0017] [6] In any of [1] to [5], the semiconductor substrate may be a silicon carbide substrate, which makes it easier to obtain excellent breakdown voltage.

The bottom surface 4 is located in the drift region 11. For example, the bottom surface 4 is parallel to the first main surface 1 and the second main surface 2. The side surfaces 3 are inclined with respect to a plane including the bottom surface 4.

[0026] The contact region 18 contains p-type impurities such as aluminum and has p-type conductivity. The contact region 18 penetrates the source region 13 and the body region 12 and is in contact with the drift region 11. The contact region 18 includes the first main surface 1. In a plan view perpendicular to the first main surface 1, the contact region 18 is located between the gate trenches 5 adjacent along the X-axis. The contact regions 18 and the source regions 13 may be alternately provided along the Y-axis between two gate trenches 5 adjacent along the X-axis. The contact regions 18 may be provided intermittently along the Y-axis between two gate trenches 5 adjacent along the X-axis.

The gate insulating film 81 may be in contact with the source region 13 at the first main surface 1.

[0029] The gate electrode 82 is provided on the gate insulating film 81. The gate electrode 82 is formed of, for example, polysilicon (poly-Si) containing conductive impurities. The gate electrode 82 is disposed inside the gate trench 5. The gate electrode 82 faces the side surface 3 and the bottom surface 4. A portion of the gate electrode 82 may face the first main surface 1. The gate electrode 82 extends along the Y-axis. In a plan view perpendicular to the first main surface 1, the gate electrode 82 may overlap multiple gate trenches 5.

[0030] The interlayer insulating film 83 covers the gate electrode 82. The interlayer insulating film 83 is in contact with the gate electrode 82 and the gate insulating film 81. The interlayer insulating film 83 electrically insulates the gate electrode 82 and the source electrode 60 from each other. A part of the interlayer insulating film 83 may be provided inside the gate trench 5. The upper surface of the interlayer insulating film 83 may be flat. The upper surface of the interlayer insulating film 83 may be a curved surface whose curvature changes continuously. The upper surface of the interlayer insulating film 83 may be a curved surface that is convex in the +Z direction above the gate trench 5.

[0031] The interlayer insulating film 83 has a first insulating film 84 and a second insulating film 85. The interlayer insulating film 83 has a laminated structure in which the second insulating film 85 is laminated on the first insulating film 84. The first insulating film 84 is, for example, a non-doped silicate glass (NSG) film. The second insulating film 85 is a film in which the diffusion coefficient of mobile ions is smaller than that of the first insulating film 84. The mobile ions are, for example, metal ions. The metal ions are sodium ions (Na + ), potassium ions (K + ), calcium ions (Ca + ), lithium ion (Li + The metal ion may be a cation such as chloride ion (Cl - The second insulating film 85 may be an anion such as phosphate silicate glass (PSG), boron phosphate silicate glass (BPSG), or silicon nitride.

[0032] Contact holes 90 are formed in the interlayer insulating film 83 and the gate insulating film 81 at regular intervals along the X-axis. The contact holes 90 are arranged such that the gate trench 5 is located between adjacent contact holes 90 along the X-axis. The contact holes 90 extend along the Y-axis. Through the contact holes 90, the source region 13 and the contact region 18 are exposed from the interlayer insulating film 83 and the gate insulating film 81.

[0033] The source electrode 60 is in contact with the first main surface 1. The source electrode 60 has a contact electrode 61 and a source wiring 62.

The contact electrode 61 is formed of a material containing, for example, nickel silicide (NiSi). The contact electrode 61 may be formed of a material containing, for example, titanium (Ti), aluminum, and silicon. The contact electrode 61 is in ohmic contact with the source region 13 and the contact region 18. The source wiring 62 covers the upper surface and side surfaces of the interlayer insulating film 83 and the upper surface of the contact electrode 61. The source wiring 62 is in contact with the interlayer insulating film 83 and the contact electrode 61. The source wiring 62 is formed of a material containing, for example, aluminum.

[0034] The semiconductor device 100 has a gate runner 63. The gate runner 63 is formed simultaneously with the source electrode 60 and is made of the same material as the source electrode 60. The gate runner 63 is electrically connected to the gate electrode 82.

[0035] The semiconductor device 100 has a passivation film 87. The passivation film 87 covers the upper surface of the source electrode 60. An opening 121 is formed in the passivation film 87, exposing a portion of the source electrode 60. The opening 121 has a first edge 121A extending along the X-axis and a second edge 121B extending along the Y-axis. The opening 121 is formed between two gate runners 63 adjacent to each other along the Y-axis. A source plating film 86 is formed in the opening 121. An opening 122 is formed in the passivation film 87, exposing a portion of the gate pad 65 connected to the gate runner 63. A gate plating film is formed in the opening 122. An opening 123 may be formed in the passivation film 87, in addition to the openings 121 and 122.

[0036] Corrosion portions 89 may occur in the plating film 86 along the edges of the openings 121. The corrosion portions 89 occur, for example, inside the openings 121. The corrosion portions 89 contact the source electrode 60 and the plating film 86. The corrosion portions 89 occur when plating solution accumulates near the inner walls of the openings 121 during the formation of the plating film 86, corroding the source electrode 60 and the plating film 86. The corrosion portions 89 contain metal ions in the plating solution. The metal ions include, for example, sodium ions, potassium ions, calcium ions, lithium ions, and chloride ions.

[0037] 1, the semiconductor device 100 has a first region 101. In a plan view, the first region 101 covers a first edge 121A and a second edge 121B of the opening 121. The first region 101 may have an annular shape in a plan view. As shown in FIG. 4, in a cross-sectional view perpendicular to the Y axis, the first region 101 may include a position X1 directly below the second edge 121B of the opening 121.

[0038] 4 to 6, the interlayer insulating film 83 in the first region 101 does not have a contact hole 90. The upper surface of the contact region 18 in the first region 101 is covered with the interlayer insulating film 83.

[0039] 4 and 7 , outside the first region 101, a contact hole 90 is located between two gate trenches 5 adjacent to each other along the X-axis. The upper surface of the contact region 18 outside the first region 101 is not covered with the interlayer insulating film 83. The upper surface of the contact region 18 outside the first region 101 is in contact with the source electrode 60.

[0040] The first region 101 may cover at least the entire corroded portion 89 in a plan view. As shown in FIG. 4, in a cross-sectional view perpendicular to the Y axis, the width W1 of the first region 101 may be equal to or greater than the width W2 of the corroded portion 89. When the thickness of the source electrode 60 is T1, the relationship W2 + T1 × 2 ≦ W1 ≦ W2 + T1 × 10 may be satisfied. The thickness T1 of the source electrode 60 is the length along the Z axis from the top surface of the interlayer insulating film 83 to the top surface of the source electrode 60. The width W3 along the X axis from the second edge 121B of the opening 121 to the end of the first region 101 within the opening 121 may be 100 μm or less.

[0041] The drain electrode 70 is in contact with the second main surface 2. The drain electrode 70 is in contact with the silicon carbide single crystal substrate 50 at the second main surface 2. The drain electrode 70 is electrically connected to the drift region 11. The drain electrode 70 is formed of a material containing nickel silicide, for example. The drain electrode 70 may be formed of a material containing titanium, aluminum, and silicon. The drain electrode 70 is in ohmic contact with the silicon carbide single crystal substrate 50.

[0042] In the present disclosure, the width W1, the width W2, the width W3 and the thickness T1 can be measured using, for example, a scanning electron microscope (SEM).

[0043] Next, a description will be given of a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device 100. Figures 8 to 10 are cross-sectional views showing a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment.

[0044] First, as shown in Fig. 8, a silicon carbide single crystal substrate 50 is prepared. Next, a silicon carbide epitaxial layer 40 is formed on the silicon carbide single crystal substrate 50. For example, the silicon carbide single crystal substrate 50 contains n-type impurities such as nitrogen and has n-type conductivity. For example, the silicon carbide epitaxial layer 40 can be formed by epitaxial growth with the addition of n-type impurities such as nitrogen.

[0045] 9, ions are implanted into the silicon carbide epitaxial layer 40 to form the body region 12, the source region 13, and the contact region 18. The remaining portion of the silicon carbide epitaxial layer 40 becomes the drift region 11.

[0046] 10, a plurality of gate trenches 5 are formed. Next, a gate insulating film 81, a gate electrode 82, and an interlayer insulating film 83 are formed. Next, contact holes 90 are formed in the interlayer insulating film 83 and gate insulating film 81 outside the first region 101. No contact holes 90 are formed in the interlayer insulating film 83 and gate insulating film 81 inside the first region 101.

[0047] Next, the source electrode 60, the gate pad 65, the drain electrode 70, the passivation film 87, and the plating film 86 are formed (see FIGS. 3 and 4).

[0048] In this manner, the semiconductor device 100 can be manufactured.

[0049] As described above, in the semiconductor device 100, there is no contact hole 90 in the interlayer insulating film 83 in the first region 101. In this case, mobile ions that diffuse through the source electrode 60 in the first region 101 toward the gate electrode 82 are captured by the second insulating film 85. Therefore, compared to when there is a contact hole 90 in the interlayer insulating film 83 in the first region 101, the diffusion of mobile ions from the source electrode 60 into the gate insulating film 81 is reduced. This makes it possible to reduce fluctuations in the threshold voltage.

[0050] More specifically, in the semiconductor device 100, the upper surface of the contact region 18 is covered with an interlayer insulating film 83 including a second insulating film 85. The second insulating film 85 has a smaller diffusion coefficient of mobile ions than the first insulating film 84, and therefore easily captures mobile ions. Therefore, when a voltage is applied to the gate electrode 82, mobile ions that diffuse from the corroded portion 89 through the source electrode 60 toward the gate electrode 82 (see dashed arrow F1 in FIG. 4) are captured by the second insulating film 85. As a result, the diffusion of mobile ions into the gate insulating film 81 is reduced, and fluctuations in the threshold voltage can be reduced.

[0051] In contrast, when the interlayer insulating film 83 in the first region 101 has a contact hole 90, the side surfaces of the first insulating film 84 are not covered with the second insulating film 85. Therefore, mobile ions easily enter the first insulating film 84 from the side surfaces of the first insulating film 84 that are not covered with the second insulating film 85 and diffuse into the gate insulating film 81. That is, when the interlayer insulating film 83 in the first region 101 has a contact hole 90, the barrier performance against mobile ions is reduced. When the interlayer insulating film 83 in the first region 101 has a contact hole 90, the second insulating film 85 may be provided to cover the side surfaces of the first insulating film 84, but this complicates the manufacturing process and increases manufacturing costs. When the second insulating film 85 is provided to cover the side surfaces of the first insulating film 84, it is difficult to narrow the pitch between adjacent unit cells along the X-axis.

[0052] The second insulating film 85 may contain at least one of phosphosilicate glass, boron phosphosilicate glass, and silicon nitride. Phosphosilicate glass, boron phosphosilicate glass, and silicon nitride have high performance in capturing mobile ions, and therefore, the diffusion of mobile ions into the gate insulating film 81 can be easily reduced.

[0053] The first region 101 may cover at least the entire corroded portion 89 in plan view. In this case, the diffusion of mobile ions into the gate insulating film 81 is easily reduced.

[0054] If the width of the first region 101 along the X-axis is W1, the width of the corroded portion 89 along the X-axis is W2, and the thickness of the source electrode 60 is T1, the relationship W2 + T1 × 2 ≦ W1 ≦ W2 + T1 × 10 may be satisfied. Mobile ions contained in the corroded portion 89 diffuse along the X-axis over a length at least equal to the thickness T1 of the source electrode 60. If W2 + T1 × 2 ≦ W1, the mobile ions diffusing along the X-axis can also be captured by the second insulating film 85, making it easier to reduce the diffusion of mobile ions into the gate insulating film 81. If W1 ≦ W2 + T1 × 10, the on-resistance is less likely to increase.

[0055] A width W3 along the X axis from second edge 121B of opening 121 to the end of first region 101 within opening 121 may be 100 μm or less. In this case, the on-resistance is less likely to increase.

[0056] Although the embodiments have been described in detail above, the present disclosure is not limited to the specific embodiments, and various modifications and changes are possible within the scope of the claims. [Explanation of symbols]
