Detailed Description
The same reference indicators will be used throughout the drawings and the detailed description to refer to the same or like parts. Embodiments of the present disclosure will be readily understood by the following detailed description in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
Spatial descriptors, such as "upper," above, "" below, "" upward, "" left, "" right, "" downward, "" top, "" bottom, "" vertical, "" horizontal, "" side, "higher," "lower," "upper," "above," "below," etc., are described with respect to a component or group of components, or with respect to a plane of the component or group of components, for describing the orientation of one or more components shown in the relevant figures. It should be understood that the spatial descriptors used herein are for illustrative purposes only, and that the actual implementation of the structures described herein may be spatially arranged in any direction or manner so long as such arrangement does not depart from the advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure.
Further, it should be noted that the actual shape of the various structures depicted as being approximately rectangular may be curved, have rounded edges, have slightly uneven thickness, etc. in an actual device due to device manufacturing conditions. Straight lines and right angles are used for convenience only to represent layers and features.
In the following description, a semiconductor device/die/package, a method of manufacturing the same, and the like are set forth as preferred examples. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that modifications, including additions and/or substitutions, may be made without departing from the scope and spirit of the disclosure. Specific details may be omitted in order not to obscure the disclosure; however, the disclosure is written to enable any person skilled in the art to practice the teachings herein without undue experimentation.
In order to realize a high-voltage device, a silicon substrate (HR silicon substrate) having a high resistance may be introduced into the device to improve the withstand voltage of the device in the vertical direction. Due to the polarization effect, an electron inversion layer is formed at the interface between the aluminum nitride buffer layer and the silicon substrate. However, when a high voltage is applied to such a device, a leakage current problem occurs at the edges of the aluminum nitride buffer layer and the silicon substrate, resulting in leakage current flowing from the inversion layer to the edges, and thus resulting in poor reliability of the device.
On the other hand, applying a thicker buffer layer to the device can also improve the withstand voltage of the device in the vertical direction. However, this approach may result in an increase in the thickness of the device, which is not consistent with the trend toward miniaturization of electronic devices. Additional stress problems can occur due to the thicker buffer layer.
At least to avoid the above problems, the present invention aims to develop a novel semiconductor device structure. The detailed structure/arrangement will be described in detail below.
Fig. 1A is a top view of a semiconductor device 1A according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. Fig. 1B is a vertical sectional view of the semiconductor device 1A taken along the line A-A' in fig. 1A. The semiconductor device 1A includes a substrate 10A, an insulating layer 20, and a plurality of epitaxial structures 30.
In order to increase the pressure resistance of the semiconductor device 1A in the vertical direction, the substrate 10A of the present disclosure adopts a novel structure.
Specifically, referring to fig. 1A and 1B, the substrate 10A includes a substrate layer 102A and a plurality of substrate layers 104A. Substrate layer 102A may be part of substrate 10A and substrate layer 104A may be another part of substrate 10A. The substrate layer 104A is disposed on/over/above the substrate layer 102A such that the upper surface 1042 of the substrate layer 104A is higher than the upper surface 1022 of the substrate layer 102A. The substrate layer 104A is disposed on/over the substrate layer 102A in an array (as shown in fig. 1A). The substrate layer 104A is patterned into rectangular islands from a top view of the semiconductor device 1A in fig. 1A.
An exemplary material for substrate 10A may include silicon. The silicon substrate 10A has a <111> orientation. The substrate layer 102A is doped with a p-type dopant, where the p-type dopant may include a group III element, such as boron (B) and gallium (Ga). Each substrate layer 104A is doped with an n-type dopant, where the n-type dopant may include a group V element, such As phosphorus (P), arsenic (As), or antimony (Sb). Thus, the substrate layers 102A are doped to have a P conductivity type, and each of the substrate layers 104A is doped to have an N conductivity type opposite to the P conductivity type.
The substrate layers 104A are disposed on/over/above the substrate layers 102A such that each substrate layer 104A may be in contact with the substrate layer 102A, thereby forming a p-n junction PN (i.e., a p-n diode) between each substrate layer 104A and the substrate layer 102A. By configuring the substrate layer 102A and the substrate layer 104A to be of different conductivity types, the substrate 10A may be integrated with a plurality of p-n diodes/junctions PN.
Insulating layer 20 is disposed on/over substrate layer 102A and substrate layer 104A. Insulating layer 20 covers substrate layer 102A and substrate layer 104A. The insulating layer 20 together with the substrate layer 104A covers the entire upper surface 1022 of the substrate layer 102A.
For each substrate layer 104A, the region R1 of the substrate layer 104A that is covered by the insulating layer 20 is defined as a non-device region, and the region R2 of the substrate layer 104A that is not covered by the insulating layer 20 is defined as a device region, wherein the device region is a region on the substrate 10A where the epitaxial structure 30 is to be formed. The insulating layer 20 has a plurality of through holes TH. The region R2 of the substrate layer 104A is defined by the through holes TH of the insulating layer 20. The definition of the region R2 by the through holes TH includes a dimension, such as an area, a width, or a length, of the region R2.
The insulating layer 20 extends to an area between any two adjacent substrate layers 104A such that the plurality of substrate layers 104A of the substrate 10A are spaced apart from one another by the insulating layer 20. At least a portion of insulating layer 20 is in contact with any two adjacent substrate layers 104A.
The insulating layer 20 may include, but is not limited to, for example, siO x、Si3N4, siON, siC, siBN, siCBN, oxide, nitride, plasma Enhanced Oxide (PEOX), or combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the insulating layer 20 may be a multi-layer structure, such as a composite dielectric layer of Al 2O3/SiN, a composite dielectric layer of Al 2O3/silicon dioxide (SiO 2), a composite dielectric layer of aluminum nitride (AlN)/silicon nitride (SiN), a composite dielectric layer of aluminum nitride/silicon dioxide (SiO 2), or a combination thereof. In the present embodiment, the insulating layer 2 includes SiO 2.
The epitaxial structures 30 are each disposed directly over a region R2 of the substrate layer 104A such that each of the plurality of epitaxial structures 30 is bounded by the insulating layer 20. The width of each epitaxial structure 30 is less than the width of the corresponding substrate layer 104A. The orthographic projection of each epitaxial structure 30 onto substrate layer 102A falls entirely within the orthographic projection of the corresponding substrate layer 104A onto substrate layer 102A. The plurality of epitaxial structures 30 are separated from one another by insulating layers 20.
Here, "epitaxial structure 30 is limited by insulating layer 20" includes limiting the growth area of epitaxial structure 30. Thus, when growth is complete, epitaxial structures 30 may be separated from each other. For epitaxial structures without the above-mentioned insulating layer 20, these epitaxial structures may be separated from each other by performing at least one etching process, which may damage sidewalls of the epitaxial structures. The damaged sidewall may cause leakage current problems because leakage current tends to flow through the damaged sidewall. Furthermore, by limiting the growth area of epitaxial structure 30, epitaxial structure 30 may be grown as small blocks/islands, such that the stress built up therein, as well as lattice defects therein, may be reduced.
Specifically, each epitaxial structure 30 of the plurality of epitaxial structures 30 includes a buffer layer 302, a nitride-based semiconductor layer 304, and a nitride-based semiconductor layer 306. The buffer layer 302 is disposed between the substrate layer 104A of the substrate 10A and the nitride-based semiconductor layer 302. Buffer layer 302 is disposed on/over the corresponding substrate layer 104A. The width of the buffer layer 302 is smaller than the width of the corresponding substrate layer 104A. Buffer layer 302 is thicker than insulating layer 20 on the corresponding substrate layer 104A such that the upper surface of buffer layer 302 is higher than the upper surface of insulating layer 20.
Each buffer layer 302 penetrates the insulating layer 20 through the corresponding through hole TH to be in contact with the corresponding substrate layer 104A, thereby forming an interface IF1 between the buffer layer 302 and the substrate layer 104A. Thus, each of the buffer layers 302 is bounded by the insulating layer 20. More specifically, each of the buffer layers 302 abuts against the inner side surface of the insulating layer 20. The insulating layer 20 extends from a side surface 3022 of the insulating layer 20 along the upper surface 1042 and the side surface 1044 of the substrate layer 104A to the upper surface 1022 of the substrate layer 102A. Thus, the interface IF1 between the buffer layer 302 and the substrate layer 104A is within the thickness T of the insulating layer 20.
The buffer layer 302 may be configured to reduce lattice mismatch and thermal mismatch between the substrate layer 104A and the nitride-based semiconductor layer 302, thereby eliminating defects due to mismatch/variance. Buffer layer 302 may include a III-V compound. The III-V compounds may include, for example, but are not limited to, aluminum, gallium, indium, nitrogen, or combinations thereof. Thus, exemplary materials for buffer layer 302 may also include, for example, but are not limited to GaN, alN, alGaN, inAlGaN or combinations thereof.
In this embodiment, the material of the buffer layer 302 may be selected to be AlN. When a high voltage is applied to such a semiconductor device 1A, an inversion layer of electrons is formed at the interface IF1 between the AlN buffer layer 302 and the silicon substrate layer 104A due to polarization effect. Since the side surface 3022 of the buffer layer 302 is spaced apart from the side surface 1044 of the substrate layer 104A, a possible leakage current path is cut off. In this regard, once the sidewalls of two stacked layers are connected to each other, leakage current tends to flow from one sidewall to the other sidewall as the sidewalls may have more defects. Accordingly, since the insulating layer 20 can indirectly restrict the position of the inversion layer of electrons (i.e., the side 3022 of the buffer layer 302 is spaced apart from the side 1044 of the substrate layer 104A), current leakage from the side surface 3022 of the buffer layer 302 to the side surface 1044 of the substrate layer 104A can be reduced, thereby improving the reliability of the semiconductor device 1A. Therefore, the semiconductor device 1A is suitable for high-voltage operation. In addition, since the side surface 3022 of the buffer layer 302 can be formed without etching, there are fewer defects with respect to the side wall defined by the etching method.
In some embodiments, epitaxial structure 30 may also include a nucleation layer (not shown). A nucleation layer may be formed between the substrate layer 104A and the buffer layer 302. The nucleation layer may be configured to provide a transition to accommodate the mismatch/difference between the substrate layer 104A and the group III nitride layer of the buffer layer. Exemplary materials for the nucleation layer may include, for example, but are not limited to, alN or any alloy thereof.
A nitride-based semiconductor layer 304 is disposed on/over the buffer layer 302. The nitride-based semiconductor layer 306 is disposed on/over the nitride-based semiconductor layer 304. Exemplary materials for nitride-based semiconductor 304 may include, for example, but are not limited to: nitrides or III-V compounds, for example GaN, alN, inN, in xAlyGa_(1–x–y) N, where x+y.ltoreq.1, al yGa(1-y) N, where y.ltoreq.1. Exemplary materials for nitride-based semiconductor layer 306 may include, for example, but are not limited to: nitrides or III-V compounds, for example GaN, alN, inN, in xAlyGa(1–x–y) N, where x+y.ltoreq.1, al y Ga(1–y) N, where y.ltoreq.1.
The exemplary materials of nitride-based semiconductor layers 304 and 306 are selected such that the bandgap of nitride-based semiconductor layer 306 (i.e., the forbidden bandwidth) is greater than the bandgap of nitride-based semiconductor layer 304, which results in their electron affinities being different from each other and forming a heterojunction between them. For example, when nitride-based semiconductor layer 304 is an undoped gallium nitride (GaN) layer having a bandgap of about 3.4eV, nitride-based semiconductor layer 306 may be an aluminum gallium nitride (AlGaN) layer having a bandgap of about 4.0 eV. In this way, the nitride-based semiconductor layers 304 and 306 can function as a channel layer and a barrier layer, respectively. A triangular well potential is generated at the bonding interface between the channel layer and the barrier layer such that electrons accumulate in the triangular well, thereby creating a two-dimensional electron gas (2 DEG) region near the heterojunction. Accordingly, the semiconductor device 1A may include at least one GaN-based high electron mobility transistor TR (HEMT).
Electrodes E1 and E2 are disposed on/over the nitride-based semiconductor layer 306. The electrodes E1 and E2 may be in contact with the nitride-based semiconductor layer 306. In some embodiments, electrode E1 may serve as a source electrode. In some embodiments, electrode E2 may act as a drain. In some embodiments, electrode E1 may serve as a source electrode. In some embodiments, electrode E2 may act as a drain. The role of electrodes E1 and E2 depends on the design of the device.
In some embodiments, electrodes E1 and E2 may include, for example, but are not limited to, metals, alloys, doped semiconductor materials (e.g., doped crystalline silicon), compounds such as silicides and nitrides, other conductor materials, or combinations thereof. Exemplary materials for electrodes E1 and E2 may include, for example, but are not limited to: titanium (Ti), alSi, titanium nitride (TiN), or a combination thereof. Each of the electrodes E1 and E2 may be a single layer or a plurality of layers having the same or different compositions. The electrodes E1 and E2 form ohmic contacts with the nitride-based semiconductor layer 306. In addition, ohmic contact may be achieved by applying Ti, al, or other suitable materials to the electrodes E1 and E2.
In some embodiments, each of the electrodes E1 and E2 is formed of at least one conformal layer and a conductive filler. The conformal layer may encapsulate the conductive filler.

The doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 50 is disposed on/over/above the nitride-based semiconductor layer 306. The doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 50 is in contact with the nitride-based semiconductor layer 306. The gate electrode 52 is disposed on/over the doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 50 and the nitride-based semiconductor layer 306. The gate electrode 52 is in contact with the doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 50. The doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 50 is disposed between the gate electrode 52 and the nitride-based semiconductor layer 306.
The gate electrode 52 is narrower than the doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 30. In some embodiments, the width of the doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 50 is substantially the same as the width of the gate electrode 52. The profile of the doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 50 and the profile of the gate electrode 52 are identical, e.g., they are both rectangular profiles. In other embodiments, the profile of the doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 50 and the profile of the gate electrode 52 may be different from each other. For example, the profile of the doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 50 may be a trapezoidal profile and the profile of the gate electrode 52 may be a rectangular profile.
In the exemplary illustration of fig. 1B, transistor TR of semiconductor device 1A is an enhancement device that is in a normally-off state when gate electrode 52 is at about zero bias. Specifically, the doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 50 may form at least one p-n junction with the nitride-based semiconductor layer 306 to deplete the 2DEG region such that at least one region of the 2DEG region corresponding to a location below the corresponding gate 52 has different characteristics (e.g., different electron concentration) than the rest of the 2DEG region, and is thus blocked.
Due to this mechanism, the transistor TR of the semiconductor device 1A has normally-off characteristics. In other words, when no voltage is applied to the gate electrode 52 or the voltage applied to the gate electrode 52 is less than the threshold voltage (i.e., the minimum voltage required to form an inversion layer under the gate electrode 52), the 2DEG region remains blocked at the region under the gate electrode 52, and thus no current flows.
In some embodiments, the doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 50 may be omitted such that the transistor TR of the semiconductor device 1A is a depletion device, which means that the transistor TR of the semiconductor device 1A is in a normally-on state at zero gate-source voltage.
The doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 50 may be a p-type III-V doped semiconductor layer. Exemplary materials for doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 50 may include, for example, but are not limited to, p-doped group III-V nitride semiconductor materials, such as p-type GaN, p-type AlGaN, p-type InN, p-type AlInN, p-type InGaN, p-type AlInGaN, or combinations thereof. In some embodiments, the p-doped material is achieved by using p-type impurities such as Be, zn, cd, and Mg. In some embodiments, nitride-based semiconductor layer 304 comprises undoped GaN and nitride-based semiconductor layer 306 comprises AlGaN, doped nitride-based semiconductor layer 50 is a p-type GaN layer that can bend the underlying band structure upward and deplete the corresponding region of the 2DEG region, thereby placing transistor TR of semiconductor device 1A in an off state.
Exemplary materials for gate electrode 52 may include metals or metal compounds. The gate electrode 52 may be formed as a single layer or multiple layers having the same or different compositions. Exemplary materials for the metal or metal compound may include, for example, but are not limited to W, au, pd, ti, ta, co, ni, pt, mo, tiN, taN, metal alloys or compounds thereof, or other metal compounds.
In the present disclosure, the epitaxial structure 30 is disposed/formed on the substrate 10A integrated with the p-n diode/p-n junction PN, and each of the plurality of epitaxial structures 30 is electrically coupled/connected to the corresponding p-n diode/p-n junction PN. In some embodiments, electrode E1 (as the source) and substrate 10A may be electrically connected to the same ground voltage, while electrode E2 (as the drain) may be electrically connected to a drain voltage that is higher than the ground voltage. During such operation, the p-n diode/p-n junction PN is reverse biased, and when the transistor TR of the semiconductor device 1A is in a normally-off state, the p-n diode/p-n junction PN can share a part of the voltage, thereby improving the withstand voltage of the transistor TR of the semiconductor device 1A.
Fig. 1C is an enlarged vertical cross-sectional view of region a of fig. 1A. Referring to fig. 1C, the substrate layer 102A and each substrate layer 104A collectively form a depletion region DPR. In this embodiment, the doping concentration of the p-type dopant of the substrate layer 102A is different from the doping concentration of the n-type dopant of the substrate layer 104A. Thus, the thickness T1 of the depletion region DPR in the substrate layer 102A is different from the thickness T2 of the depletion region DPR in the substrate layer 104A.
For example, the doping concentration of the p-type dopant of substrate layer 102A is greater than the doping concentration of the n-type dopant of substrate layer 104A. Thus, substrate layer 102A may also be referred to as a p+ substrate layer/region, and substrate layer 104A may also be referred to as an n-substrate layer/region. Thickness T1 is greater than thickness T2. By adjusting the ratio of the doping concentrations of the p-type dopant and the n-type dopant, the electrical performance of the p-n diode/p-n junction PN in the substrate 10A can be adjusted accordingly for best results.

Then, an insulating layer 104 having a plurality of through holes TH is formed. Each device region DR of the substrate layer 104A is defined as a region of the substrate layer 104A not covered by the insulating layer 104. In contrast, each non-device region NDR of the substrate layer 104A is defined as the area of the substrate layer 104A that is covered by the insulating layer 104.

Fig. 6B is a vertical sectional view of the semiconductor device 1E taken along line E-E' in fig. 6A. The semiconductor device 1E is similar to the semiconductor device 1A described and illustrated with reference to fig. 1A, except that the portion P1 of the substrate layer 104E1 has a wider width/larger area, and the other portion P2 of the substrate layer 104E2 has a smaller width/smaller area. Epitaxial structures 30E1, 30E2 having different areas are defined by forming substrate layers 104E1, 104E2 having different areas. More specifically, the boundaries of the epitaxial structures 30E1, 30E2 may be defined by the isolation layer 20E without etching, and thus different regions of the epitaxial structures 30E1, 30E2 may not undergo etching.
