具体实施方式
本申请的实施方案涉及具有超级结和肖特基二极管的功率半导体器件。肖特基二极管集成在功率器件的单位单元中,使得肖特基二极管不会占据比功率器件的单位单元更多的面积。肖特基二极管还在超级结柱与功率器件的源极/发射极之间提供良好的电流路径,以最小化在高电流雪崩下的动态切换问题和重大失效。肖特基二极管还可以被提供有足够的屏蔽,例如,与肖特基接触区(或肖特基界面)相邻的高掺杂区,以减少在反向偏压下的电流泄漏。在一个实施方案中,功率器件被配置为具有低外延电阻率并处理高击穿电压,例如,大于300电压、或大于500电压、或大于700电压。

图1示出了根据本公开的一个实施方案的功率半导体器件100。在本实施方案中,功率器件100是具有超级结结构(或柱)的功率金属氧化物半导体场效应晶体管(MOSFET)器件。在其它实施方案中,功率器件100可以是其它功率器件,诸如绝缘栅双极晶体管(IGBT)器件。如果功率器件100是IGBT,那么它将具有附加的P+衬底或层,如本领域的技术人员将理解。
功率器件100包括半导体衬底102,例如硅衬底。外延层104(或外延层)设在衬底102的第一侧上,并且第一电极106设在衬底102的第二侧上或上方。在一个实施方案中,外延层104具有N型导电性。第二电极108设在外延层104上方。多个栅极结构110设在外延层104上方并靠近第二电极108。当栅极结构110导通时,外延层104为第一电极106和第二电极108提供电流路径。在本实施方案中,功率器件100是功率MOSFET,并且第一电极106和第二电极108分别是漏极电极和源极电极。在另一个实施方案中,功率器件可以是IGBT,并且第一电极106和第二电极108可以分别是集电极电极和发射极电极。
栅极结构110中的每个包括栅极电极112、栅极氧化物114和栅极间隔件116。在外延层中,在栅极结构110之间设有多个阱118。阱118的深度可取决于功率器件100的特性。在一个实施方案中,阱的深度范围在约1微米至约2微米之间,或可以至多5微米。在一个实施方案中,阱118具有P导电性并与外延层104形成体二极管。P阱118的掺杂剂浓度为约1.2×1016个原子/cm3至8.0×1017个原子/cm3。多个N+区120设在P阱118内并靠近栅极电极112。在一个实施方案中,N+区120是源极区。
多个柱122(或超级结结构)设置在外延层104中。每个柱与P阱118间隔开,以限定根据实施方式的1微米至5微米或2微米至3微米的间隙123。该竖直间隙123限定肖特基二极管区,并且其大小可以根据实施方式而变化。在一个实施方案中,柱122具有P型导电性,并且具有约1016个原子/cm3的掺杂剂浓度。在一个实施方案中,柱122具有至少20微米或至少25微米的竖直尺寸。在另一个实施方案中,根据实施方式,柱122可以具有约30微米至约60微米的竖直尺寸。例如,对于600V至650V器件,在实施方式中,柱具有的竖直尺寸为约45微米至50微米。
在一个实施方案中,在由P阱和柱限定的间隙123中设有多个N+增强区124。N+增强区124提供用于减小体二极管的正向电压降并减小在反向偏压下的电流泄漏。在一个实施方案中,N+增强区124以交替图案提供,如图1B所示,其示出了N+增强区124和P阱118的顶视图。在另一个实施方案中,间隙123可以仅存在于存在对应的N+增强区124的地方,而在其它地方不存在,如图1C所示。在该实施方案中,P阱118和P柱122在不存在N+增强区124的区中重叠。在又一个实施方案中,未提供N+增强区124。
多个沟槽126从外延层104的上表面延伸并进入P柱122的上部部分。沟槽126延伸穿过N+源极区120并部分地延伸到P阱118中,使得沟槽的基部或底部位于P柱122中。在一个实施方案中,沟槽126向P柱中延伸约1微米至约8微米。
多个欧姆接触区128设在沟槽126的基部下方。在一个实施方案中,通过向P柱122的上部部分提供附加的P型杂质(例如硼)来形成欧姆接触区128。在一个实施方案中,欧姆接触区128具有比P柱122的掺杂剂浓度显著更高的掺杂剂浓度。例如,P柱具有约1016个原子/cm3的掺杂剂浓度,并且欧姆接触区128具有约1019个原子/cm3的掺杂剂浓度,它的量值是P柱122的掺杂剂浓度的3倍。
肖特基接触层130设在沟槽126的表面上方。肖特基接触层130包括上部部分130a、侧部部分130b和底部部分(或基部)130c。肖特基接触层130的上部部分130a延伸超过沟槽并邻接栅极结构110的侧面。肖特基接触层130的侧部部分130b接触由P阱118和P柱122限定的间隙123,从而限定肖特基接触(肖特基界面)。这些肖特基接触限定肖特基二极管,其中阳极连接到(或对应于)源极电极108,而阴极连接到(或对应于)漏极电极106。肖特基二极管减小功率器件100的正向电压(VF)和反向恢复时间。由于肖特基接触形成在P阱118与P柱122之间,因此肖特基二极管集成到功率器件100的单位单元中。因此,肖特基二极管不占据比功率器件100的单位单元更多的面积。
另外,肖特基接触层130的底部部分130c与欧姆接触区128形成欧姆接触。欧姆接触造成柱122与第二电极108(例如,源极电极)之间的良好的电流路径,这减小了在高电流雪崩条件下的动态切换问题和重大失效的可能性。
形成肖特基二极管的肖特基接触层130可以包括金属材料,例如钼(Mo)、铂(Pt)、钒(V)、钛(Ti)、钯(Pd)等。在另一个实施方案中,肖特基接触层130是硅化物材料,诸如硅化铂或硅化钯。
如上所述,具有肖特基二极管的功率器件100具有某些优点。图2示出了随源极-漏极电压VSD而变的流过两个功率器件的电流的波形:“SJ MOS”表示常规的超级结MOSFET器件,而“具有肖特基二极管的SJ”表示功率器件100。在实验中,已经发现,具有肖特基二极管(或功率器件100)的SJ的源极-漏极电压VSD低于常规的超级结MOSFET的源极-漏极电压VSD,尤其是在低于15A的电流电平下如此。例如,虽然常规的超级结MOSFET在1A处具有0.68V的源极-漏极电压VSD,但是功率器件100的源极-漏极电压VSD在1A处为0.46V,它比常规的超级结MOSFET低约30%。据信,肖特基二极管减小功率器件100的源极-漏极电压VSD,因为肖特基二极管具有比PN二极管更低的正向电压。
类似地,虽然常规的超级结MOSFET在5A处具有0.74V的源极-漏极电压VSD,但是具有竖直肖特基二极管(或功率器件100)的超级结MOSFET在5A处为0.66V,这比常规的超级结MOSFET器件低约11%。功率器件100具有比常规的MOSFET更低的源极-漏极电压VSD,因为功率器件100中的肖特基二极管具有比常规的超级结MOSFET中的PN结二极管更低的正向电压降(例如,0.2V至0.5V对比0.7V)。因此,具有肖特基二极管的功率器件100具有比常规的超级结MOSFET更小的体二极管导通损耗,从而在包括逆变器和DC-DC功率转换的应用中提高功率效率。
图3示出了常规的超级结MOSFET器件中的PN结二极管和超级结MOSFET器件(例如,功率器件100)中的竖直肖特基二极管的体二极管反向恢复电流的波形。竖直肖特基二极管的反向恢复电流显著小于常规的超级结MOSFET器件中的PN结二极管的反向恢复电流。例如,当仅竖直肖特基二极管导通时,功率器件100的竖直肖特基二极管的反向恢复电流在漏极电流值小于6A时可以低至零。因为反向恢复电流在具有感应负载的桥式电路中的MOSFET开关中引起额外损耗,所以当在这种桥式电路中使用具有竖直肖特基二极管的功率器件100时,功率器件100的导通损耗将比常规的超级结MOSFET开关少。另外,可以减少桥式电路中的栅极-源极电压振荡并防止MOSFET发生故障。
图4A至图4S示出了根据本公开的一个实施方案的形成半导体功率器件200的方法的各方面。
在图4A中,在半导体衬底202上方形成半导体层204。可以通过外延生长方法形成层204。在一个实施方案中,衬底202是硅,并且每个外延生长步骤形成具有约2.5微米至3.2微米的外延层。在其它实施方案中,衬底202可以是其它半导体材料,诸如IV族半导体衬底、III-V族化合物半导体衬底或II-VI族氧化物半导体衬底。例如,IV族半导体衬底可以包括硅衬底、锗衬底或硅锗衬底。
衬底202可以包括外延层。在一个实施方案中,衬底202可以是N+掺杂层,其中功率器件是MOSFET。在另一个实施方案中,衬底202可以是P+层,其中功率器件是IGBT。向层204中注入N型杂质(图4B),以将层204转换成N型导电性。可以执行退火以促进杂质扩散。在一个实施方案中,层204可以形成有N型杂质,使得可以跳过注入步骤。
在层204上方形成半导体层206(图4C)。向层206中注入N型杂质,以得到具有两个N层的结构。接着,在层206上方形成图案化光致抗蚀剂207(图4D),以暴露层206的选定部分。将P型杂质(或离子)选择性地注入到层206的暴露部分中。层206的这些暴露部分将用于形成柱(参见图1A中的标号122)。P型杂质具有足够的浓度以将暴露部分转换成多个P区208。去除光致抗蚀剂207(图4E)。重复上述步骤(例如,13次至20次)以获得具有多个柱208'的层206'(图4F)。层206'包括多个外延层。在一个实施方案中,柱208'从顶部到基部的总深度(或竖直尺寸)大于20微米,例如,在约30微米至60微米的范围内。可以在将离子注入每个外延层之后执行退火工艺以促进掺杂剂扩散。
接着,在整个结构上方形成半导体层210并使其掺杂有N杂质(图4G)。根据实施方式,层210可以是单个外延层或多个外延层。层210形成为具有2微米至4微米的深度。层210具有足够的深度以形成间隙,在该间隙上随后形成肖特基接触。层210掺杂有N型杂质。形成图案化光致抗蚀剂212以暴露层210的部分。
在一个实施方案中,执行附加的N掺杂以在层210的选定部分处提供更高的N型浓度,从而形成多个N+增强区214(图4H)。N+增强区214对应于图1中的N+增强区124。N+增强区214中的掺杂浓度可以是例如约1.2×1016至5×1017。除其它原因外,形成N+增强区214还为了减少在反向偏压下的电流泄漏。在不存在N+增强区214的情况下不存在P柱208'与随后形成的P阱之间的间隙的情况下(图1C),P柱208'和随后形成的P阱的重叠可以通过附加的光掩模和注入步骤实现,其中桥接的注入区仅形成在N+增强区214外的区域中。或者,桥接的注入区可以形成在存在N+增强区214的位置处,并且允许N+增强区214对P柱208'进行反掺杂以形成肖特基二极管的所期望的间隙。根据实施方式,可以形成或不形成N+增强区214。
图4I示出了根据一个实施方案的N+增强区214和柱208'的俯视图。N+增强区214的图案可以被描述为在柱208'上方的棋盘图案。换句话说,器件的每个连续的柱208'可以沿其长度具有N+增强区214和N体掺杂区的交替图案,而N+增强区214的图案相对于每个相邻的柱208'偏移。N+增强区214和N体掺杂区的宽度可以相同或类似,使得N+增强区214和N体掺杂区以交替矩阵或棋盘图案设置在柱208'上方。尽管图4I中的N+增强区214的形状是矩形,但是实施方案不限于该特定形状。例如,N+增强区214的形状可以是圆形、六边形或其它形状。
在一个实施方案中,设置在相邻的柱208'上方的N+增强区214相对于图的栅极轴线方向或从上到下方向彼此不重叠(参见图4I)。在其它实施方案中,相邻的柱208'的N+增强区214相对于栅极轴线方向彼此重叠。在又一个实施方案中,N+增强区214中的一个或多个可以在整个P柱210上方延伸。
参见图4J,通过使用上述步骤执行一个或多个外延生长步骤,在N+增强区214上方形成另一个层216。取决于实施方式,层216具有约1微米至3微米的深度,或随具有足够的厚度以随后在其中形成P阱。在层216上方形成栅极氧化物层218。在栅极氧化物层218上方形成栅极电极层220。在一个实施方案中,栅极电极层是N掺杂的多晶硅,但是根据实施方式也可以是其它导电材料。
使用本领域公知的光刻法蚀刻栅极电极层220以形成多个栅极电极220'(图4K)。尽管图4K示出了在相邻的栅极电极220'之间的空间中的完整栅极氧化物层218,但是一些实施方案可以包括去除在栅极电极220'之间提供的栅极氧化物材料。使用栅极电极220'作为掩模将P型掺杂剂注入层216中,以形成多个P阱222。可以执行退火以促进掺杂剂扩散。P阱222形成为与柱208'间隔开,从而提供间隙223。也就是说,在一个实施方案中,P阱222的底部和柱208'的顶部限定间隙223以具有至少1微米的竖直尺寸。在另一个实施方案中,间隙223为2微米至4微米,或2微米至3微米。间隙的大小限定肖特基二极管的肖特基接触(或肖特基截面),因此其大小可以根据实施方式而变化。
使用栅极电极220'作为掩模将N型杂质选择性地注入P阱222的顶部中(图4L)。或者,可以使用光致抗蚀剂掩模来图案化注入物。控制N掺杂以产生多个N+区224。在一个实施方案中,N+区是源极区。
参见图4M,在栅极电极220'和N+源极区224上方形成栅极介电层(未示出)。可以通过在器件的上表面上方沉积一个或多个介电层来形成栅极介电层。介电层可以包括氮化物层、氧化物层或其它介电材料。在一个实施方案中,介电层是氮化物层。选择性地蚀刻介电层以去除介电材料的设置在栅极电极220'之间部分,从而产生多个栅极间隔件226。栅极间隔件226限定多个栅极结构228。栅极结构228包括栅极氧化物218'、栅极电极220'和栅极间隔件226。
多个沟槽230形成在柱208'上方并延伸穿过P阱222(图4N)。使用已知的光刻和各向异性蚀刻工艺形成沟槽。在一个实施方案中,沟槽230向柱208'中延伸1微米至8微米。
在沟槽230上方形成氧化物层232(图4O)。氧化物层232可以使用沉积工艺或热氧化工艺形成,并且可以具有50埃至600埃的厚度。在一个实施方案中,氧化物层232整体地形成在整个结构上方,包括在栅极结构228上方。在氧化物层232上方形成氮化物层234。在一个实施方案中,氮化物层234具有的厚度为1000埃至2500埃。
执行各向异性蚀刻以暴露柱208'(图4P)。蚀刻去除氮化物层234和氧化物层232的水平暴露部分,包括设置在沟槽230的底表面上方的氮化物层234和氧化物层232的底部部分。然而,氮化物层234和氧化物层232保留在沟槽230的侧壁和栅极结构228上。在一些实施方案中,氧化物层232的薄的部分可以保留在沟槽230的底表面处。剩余的氮化物层和氧化物层用作侧壁间隔件236,其保护沟槽的侧壁免受随后的注入步骤,这将在下面说明。在一个实施方案中,在各向异性蚀刻之前在栅极结构228上方形成光致抗蚀剂掩膜以保护栅极结构。
执行离子注入步骤以在沟槽230的底部形成欧姆接触区238(图4Q),其中通过上述各向异性蚀刻暴露柱208'的部分。在一个实施方案中,欧姆接触区掺杂有P型掺杂剂达至少1019个原子/cm3的浓度。欧姆接触区238具有比柱208'体高得多的导电率,柱208'具有约1016个原子/cm3的浓度。
侧壁间隔件236保护沟槽230的侧壁免受在注入步骤期间可能散射的离子(或掺杂剂)。在一个实施方案中,相对低的注入能量,诸如3keV至25keV,可以用于注入步骤,使得散射离子将不具有足够的能量来穿透间隔件236并注入沟槽230的侧壁中。此外,如果需要,可以使用较重的注入物质诸如BF2代替硼以减小注入的预计范围。另选地,可以增加间隔件236的厚度以防止散射离子穿透沟槽230的侧壁。或者,可以调整注入能量和间隔件236的厚度两者以防止散射离子渗透到沟槽230的侧壁中。如果将P型掺杂剂注入沟槽的侧壁中,那么这些掺杂剂可以稀释随后将进行肖特基接触的侧壁的N型导电性,这将降低肖特基二极管的性能。
在离子注入步骤之后,去除保留在栅极结构228和沟槽230上的氮化物层234和氧化物层232(图4R)。在一个实施方案中,使用湿法蚀刻步骤去除氮化物层234和氧化物层232。选择湿法蚀刻以溶解在氮化物层下面的氧化物层232。因此,将氮化物层从结构抬离。在这样的实施方案中,使用氮化物层形成栅极间隔件226以保护栅极结构。
肖特基接触层240形成在沟槽230的暴露表面上方(图4R)。肖特基接触层240可以通过掩蔽和选择性地形成诸如钼(Mo)、铂(Pt)、钒(V)、钛(Ti)、钯(Pd)等的肖特基金属材料来形成。在一个实施方案中,通过形成硅化物材料诸如硅化铂或硅化钯来形成肖特基接触层。肖特基接触层240也可以是金属材料和硅化物材料的组合。在一个实施方案中,肖特基接触层240共形地形成在沟槽230的表面上。在一个实施方案中,尽管未示出,但是可以在肖特基材料层的表面上方形成诸如氮化钛的阻挡金属材料。肖特基接触层240在由P阱222和P柱208'限定的间隙223处形成肖特基接触,以形成肖特基二极管。肖特基接触层240的底部部分与欧姆接触区238形成欧姆接触。该欧姆接触有助于电流从中流过。
通过在衬底202上方沉积诸如铝的导电材料来形成第一电极242。在一个实施方案中,第一电极242是漏极电极(图4S)。通过在栅极结构228上方沉积诸如铝的导电材料并将其沉积到沟槽230中来形成第二电极244。在一个实施方案中,第二电极是源极电极。所得到的器件是功率半导体器件200,其对应于图1中的功率器件100。根据实施方式,功率器件200可以是功率MOSFET、IGBT等。
