[0013] The semiconductor device 200 of the embodiment is a pressure-contact type semiconductor device.
[0014] The semiconductor chip 100 of the embodiment is preferably used, for example, in the semiconductor device 200. However, the semiconductor chip 100 is also preferably used in semiconductor devices other than the semiconductor device 200.
[0015] The semiconductor device 200 includes a first electrode 110, a first buffer portion 130, a semiconductor chip 100, a second buffer portion 150, and a second electrode 160.
[0016] Here, an X direction, a Y direction perpendicular to the X direction, and a Z direction perpendicular to the X direction and the Y direction are defined. The X direction is an example of the first direction. The Y direction is an example of the second direction.

The first electrode 110 is a member having a columnar shape, for example. The first electrode 110 has a first surface 114 and a second surface 116 facing the first surface 114. For example, the first surface 114 and the second surface 116 are provided in a plane perpendicular to the Z axis.

For example, the semiconductor chip 100 is provided in the same number as the number of the convex portions 162 described later. The semiconductor chip 100 is, for example, an IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor). However, the semiconductor chip 100 is not limited to the IGBT, and may be a MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor) or a diode. For example, in a plane perpendicular to the Z axis or in a plane parallel to the second surface 116, the shape of the semiconductor chip 100 is rectangular.

The second buffer portion 150 contains a conductive metal such as Mo (molybdenum). For example, the shape and size of each second buffer portion 150 in the plane perpendicular to the Z-axis are the same as the shape and size of each semiconductor chip 100 in the plane perpendicular to the Z-axis.
[0024] In addition, in FIG. 1, the shape and size of the first buffer portion 130 in the plane perpendicular to the Z-axis are the same as the shape and size of the second surface 116 of the first electrode 110 in the plane perpendicular to the Z-axis. Also, the shape and size of the second buffer portion 150 in the plane perpendicular to the Z-axis are the same as the shape and size of the top surface 162a of the convex portion 162 in the plane perpendicular to the Z-axis. However, the shapes of the first buffer portion 130 and the second buffer portion 150 are not limited to this.
[0025] During the use of the semiconductor device 200, the first electrode 110 and the second electrode 160 are pressed against each other from the vertical direction. Note that the first electrode 110 and the second electrode 160 may be pressed against each other using an electrode block (not shown).

[0064] FIGS. 5 to 10 are schematic cross-sectional views showing the manufacturing process of the semiconductor chip of the embodiment.
[0065] First, a diffusion layer 4 containing, for example, a p-type impurity is formed on the semiconductor substrate 2 by, for example, ion implantation. Next, a photoresist P is appropriately formed on the upper surface 2a of the substrate (FIG. 5).
[0066] Next, using the photoresist P as a mask, grooves 88a, 88b, 88c, 88d, 88e, 88f and 88g are formed by, for example, RIE (Reactive Ion Etching) (FIG. 6).
[0067] Next, for example, by LPCVD (Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition), an oxide film 74 is formed in grooves 88a, 88b, 88c, 88d, 88e, 88f, and 88g. Next, on the oxide film 6, polysilicon 12b, 12e containing conductive type impurities, electrode 6a, and electrode 6c are formed by, for example, CVD (Fig. 7).
[0068] Next, for example, by photolithography and etching, holes penetrating the oxide film 74 and the interlayer film 72 are formed. Next, a contact plug 76 containing W is formed in such holes by, for example, CVD.
[0069] Next, for example, by sputtering, a first portion 92a of the emitter wiring 90a, a first portion 92c of the emitter wiring 90c, the gate wiring 80b, and the gate wiring 80e are formed. Next, a passivation film 70 is formed on the first portion 92a of the emitter wiring 90a, the first portion 92c of the emitter wiring 90c, the gate wiring 80b, and the gate wiring 80e by, for example, CVD (Fig. 8).
[0070] Next, for example, by photolithography and RIE, a part of the passivation film 70 is removed (Fig. 9).
[0071] Next, a first insulating film 30b and a second insulating film 30e are formed on the passivation film 70. Next, for example, by sputtering, a second portion 94a is formed on the first portion 92a of the emitter wiring 90a. Also, a second portion 94c is formed on the first portion 92c of the emitter wiring 90c. Thus, the semiconductor chip 100 of the embodiment is obtained.
[0072] Next, the operation and effect of the semiconductor chip of the embodiment will be described.
[0073] Fig. 10 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a semiconductor chip 1000 which is a comparative form of the embodiment. In the semiconductor chip 1000, the gate wiring 80b and the gate wiring 80e are provided on the upper surface 2a of the substrate.
[0074] Due to the self-heating of the semiconductor chip 1000, there was a risk that the emitter wirings 90a and 90c would extend in the X direction, break through the first insulating film 30b and the passivation film 70, and come into contact with the gate wiring 80b.
[0075] In particular, when the semiconductor chip 1000 is used in the semiconductor device 200 which is a pressure-contact type semiconductor device, the upper surfaces 98a of the emitter wiring 90a and the upper surfaces 98c of the emitter wiring 90c are pressure-contacted by the second buffer portion 150. Therefore, in particular, there was a risk that the emitter wiring 90a and the emitter wiring 90c would extend in the X direction.
[0076] Similarly, there was a risk that the emitter wiring 90a would extend in the Y direction and come into contact with the gate wiring 80e.
[0077] Therefore, the semiconductor chip 100 of the embodiment includes a semiconductor substrate 2 having a substrate upper surface 2a and having a region 10a and a region 10b in a plane parallel to the substrate upper surface 2a, an emitter wiring 90a provided on the substrate upper surface 2a of the region 10a, and a gate wiring 80b provided under the substrate upper surface 2a of the region 10b and having an upper surface 82b lower than a lower surface 99a.
[0078] Thereby, even if the emitter wiring 90a and the emitter wiring 90c extend in the X direction, it becomes difficult for contact with the gate wiring 80b to occur. Thus, it is possible to provide a highly reliable semiconductor chip and semiconductor device.
[0079] The semiconductor chip 100 of the embodiment further includes a first insulating film 30b provided on the gate wiring 80b and spaced apart from the emitter wiring 90a and the emitter wiring 90c.
[0080] Thereby, the emitter wiring 90a and the emitter wiring 90c that have extended in the X direction ride on the first insulating film 30b. Therefore, it becomes even more difficult for contact between the emitter wiring 90a and the emitter wiring 90c and the gate wiring 80b to occur. Thus, it is possible to provide an even more highly reliable semiconductor chip and semiconductor device.
[0081] In addition, since it is difficult for the emitter wiring 90 and the gate wiring 80 to come into contact with each other, the distance between the emitter wiring 90 and the gate wiring 80 can be shortened. Therefore, the active area of the semiconductor chip 100 can be made wider.
[0082] When an insulating film is provided on the side surface 96a and the upper surface 98a of the emitter wiring 90a, elongation in the X direction may be induced. By not providing an insulating film on the side surface 96a and the upper surface 98a of the emitter wiring 90a, this can be avoided.
[0083] According to the semiconductor chip and the semiconductor device of the embodiment, it is possible to provide a highly reliable semiconductor chip and semiconductor device.
[0084] Although some embodiments and examples of the present invention have been described, these embodiments and examples are presented as examples and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. These novel embodiments can be implemented in various other forms, and various omissions, replacements, and changes can be made without departing from the gist of the invention. These embodiments and their modifications are included in the scope and gist of the invention, and are included in the invention described in the claims and the equivalent scope thereof.
