Description
The present invention relates to a kind of semiconductor device such as power MOSFET (metal-oxide semiconductor fieldeffect transistor) and IGBT (igbt) of controlling high voltage and electric current, and be particularly related to the insulated-gate semiconductor device that a kind of length direction that comprises the sidewall of the raceway groove that forms on the substrate is formed with raceway groove.
The application is based at the flat 9-269202 of the number of patent application No. of Japanese publication, with reference to it its content is comprised wherein.
In the ordinary course of things, the power semiconductor such as MOSFET and IGBT of control high voltage and electric current all is that form with the MOS device forms usually.The composition of MOS device generally includes epitaxially grown weakened region of the one deck that is formed on the semiconductor chip, one deck diffusion layer that be called base (or tagma) opposite with the conductivity model of field weakened region, that is to say, electric current wherein flows along the direction opposite with the field weakened region, and another layer diffusion layer that be called source region identical with the conductivity model of field weakened region, that is to say that electric current wherein flows along the direction identical with the field weakened region.
Fig. 1 illustrates the power MOSFET as example that forms with this structure.The composition of MOSFET comprises one deck field weakened region 102 that is formed on the semiconductor chip 101, conductivity model on the contrary and direction of current flow wherein is called the diffusion layer 103 of base with opposite one deck in the weakened region and conductivity model is identical and direction of current flow wherein and identical one deck of a weakened region are called the diffusion layer 104 in source region, one deck gate oxide 105, one deck gate electrode 106, one deck interlayer insulating film 107, and one deck source electrode 108.The semiconductor device of said structure is commonly referred to as planar device.When such transistor is converted to conducting state, on the surface of substrate with regard to horizontal the raceway groove of this semiconductor device.Owing to the width that dwindles gate electrode 106 for the increase integrated level is restricted, thereby almost be to be difficult to improve integrated level.
Fig. 2 illustrates to overcoming the improvement structure of the MOSFET that above-mentioned defective makes.Improving structure is the semiconductor device of a MOS, it comprises epitaxially grown the weakened region 202 of the one deck that is formed on the semiconductor chip 201, the identical diffusion layer that is called the source region 204 in the opposite diffusion layer 203 that is called base (or tagma) in one deck direction of current flow wherein and the weakened region 202 and one deck direction of current flow wherein and the field weakened region 202.And, in this improved semiconductor device, arrive a weakened region 202 by source region 204 and base 203 and form a groove.
By forming above-mentioned structure, because channel region is to form along the vertical direction on the substrate surface, even shortened the width of gate electrode 206, channel length is guaranteed, this just might realize higher integrated level.This structure is commonly referred to " groove-shaped " structure.
Slot type structure is convenient to realize the integrated level higher than plane.Yet, find that in performance test trench type device has a shortcoming, exactly when the field weakened region of two types of devices and the impurity concentration in the base remain on same level, low than in the planar device of withstand voltage between the source of trench type device and the leakage.
In order to overcome low withstand voltage shortcoming, in the flat 6-214628 of No. that announces first of Japanese patent application, a kind of way was as shown in Figure 3 proposed.This proposal be will by form than trench bottom darker base 303 and from forming a NPN (or PNP) structure between the diffusion region 309 of trench bottom surfaces formation to make up a vertical MOSFET.This structure has weakened the electric field of channel bottom and has avoided electric field to concentrate on the bottom of groove deeply than the bottom surface of groove because of the base; Thereby might restrain the withstand voltage shortcoming that is lower than planar device of newspaper trench type device.
As shown in Figure 7, in order to improve the high current capacity of this grooved semiconductor device, build up mesh or the trellis form that comes down to expand channel width as the groove of the gate electrode of imbedding.Yet these ends that like the sieve lattice of groove well but are formed on the outermost edge of chip like the comb point that " some end " respectively arranged.This problem (Fig. 5) with regard to having occurred concentrating at each top end electric field, it need form one deck diffusion layer 602 that conduction type is identical with the base as shown in Figure 6, extends deeplyer than groove 601.
Yet, even formed the identical darker diffusion layer of such one deck conductivity model in the end of groove 601, but because of at the gate insulation layer of groove 601 ends near substrate surface, it makes the puncture voltage of gate insulation layer be reduced to other position that is lower than chip.This is lower than the problem of planar device with regard to the puncture voltage of having brought trench type device, also is like this under the identical situation of the gate insulation layer thickness of two kinds of devices even.
Thereby the objective of the invention is to provide a kind of way of avoiding producing the electric field of concentrating in groove ends.Make in having the semiconductor device of imbedding the gate electrode in the groove withstand voltage between the unlikely reduction leakage and source.

Then, in the back the running of the semiconductor device of second embodiment of the invention is described.
When adding a voltage between leakage of the MOS transistor shown in Figure 11 and source electrode, as long as the potential difference between grid and the source electrode surpasses threshold voltage, MOS transistor just is opened.Even when adding a voltage between leakage and the source electrode, as long as the potential difference between grid and the source electrode is zero (same current potential), MOS transistor of the present invention just remains on closed state.
Be added in Lou and the voltage between the electrode of source is accounted for altogether by the PN junction of electric field weakened region 1102 and base 1103.That is to say that depletion layer stretches to electric field and weakens layer 1102, voltage is then occupied by depletion layer length.Groove of the present invention terminal with cell transistor in identical, and do not cause the concentrated top (representing) of electric field with the X mark; Thereby, just might improve withstand voltage between the leakage of MOS transistor and the source.
Situation conversely is, when leaking and the source electrode remains in same current potential, and when adding voltage between grid and the source electrode, if gate insulating film 1105 is made through thermal oxidation, then punctures when voltage is higher than 8MV/cm.In conventional structure, as shown in Fig. 5 and 7, electric field concentrates on the groove end.Yet device of the present invention does not have to occur the position that electric field is concentrated, and makes the groove inboard smooth through thermal oxidation before gate insulating film 1105 forms, so just further withstand voltage between raising grid and the source.
Experiment shows, even the formed condition of gate oxide of the groove inboard of trench MOSFET is the same with the condition of formation 500 dust gate oxides in the plane MOSFET manufacturing, as long as have particular point in the groove, the dielectric voltage withstand of oxide-film will descend about 30% to 50%.Yet because device of the present invention does not have such particular point, the dielectric voltage withstand of the gate oxide almost situation with plane MOSFET is identical.
Figure 12 illustrate use provided by the present invention have leak and the source between the production stage of the withstand voltage N channel enhancement power MOSFET of 30V.
The epitaxial loayer that on substrate, has 0.3 to 1.0 Ω cm resistivity with arsenic doping growth one deck 5 to 10 μ m thickness with 0.001 to 0.006 Ω cm resistivity.This one deck N type epitaxial loayer weakens layer 1202 (Figure 12 (A)) as electric field.
Subsequently, form the groove of 1.1 to the 1.9 μ m degree of depth and 0.5 to 1.5 μ m width with photoetching technique, and the end of each groove is linked to each other with the groove 1209 of outermost edge.High-temperature oxydation under by 1000 ℃ make trench wall smooth after, remove the oxide layer that forms through oxidation.Form the heat oxide film of 500 dusts then.The heat oxide film of this layer 500 dust is as the gate insulating film 1205 of MOS transistor.The layer thickness of growing reaches the polysilicon layer of 8000 to 12000 dusts, and spreads phosphorus through thermal diffusion in polysilicon layer, forms N type polysilicon layer.After anisotropic etching, remove N type silicon layer and only stay the interior polysilicon layer of groove.Stay the gate electrode 1206 (Figure 12 (B)) of the interior polysilicon layer of groove as MOS transistor.Carry out the boron ion to substrate surface (on the surface of electric field weakened region) (Figure 10 (D)) and inject, and, weaken the diffusion layer that is formed for base 1203 on the layer, the knot of a degree of depth 1.1 to 1.9 μ m is provided at electric field through subsequently heat treatment.Inject and subsequently heat treatment is formed for the diffusion layer of contact zone, base 1210 in base 1203 by BF2 ion optionally, it is the knot of 0.3 to 0.6 μ m that a thickness is provided.And, utilizing photoetching technique to carry out the selectivity arsenic ion and inject, and heat-treat the diffusion layer that is formed for source region 1204 subsequently, it is the knot (Figure 12 (C)) of 0.3 to 0.6 μ m that thickness is provided.
Subsequently, the PSG film of growth one deck 6,000 to 10,000 dust thickness, and utilize photoetching technique to carry out anisotropic selective etching removal film and expose the surface of back gate contact zone 1210 and the surface in source region 1204.The psg film that stays after the etching is used as interlayer insulating film 1207 (Figure 12 (C)).
Then, the aluminum metal film that forms 3.0 to 5.0 μ m thickness by sputter forms source electrode 1208 and gate electrode, then carries out anisotropy selective etching removal aluminium film by reactive ion etching (RIE) method of utilizing photoetching technique and stays these electrodes (Figure 11).
When adding a voltage between this transistorized leakage and source when the power MOSFET that makes the such manufacturing of short circuit maintenance between grid and the source is in closed state, this voltage just fills and is loaded on the gate oxide.Yet, because device of the present invention does not have in the conventional power MOSFET formed top and owing to the raceway groove inwall becomes smooth through high-temperature oxydation, concentrating of electric field just can not appear in device of the present invention in the gate oxide at cell transistor outermost edge place, this has just improved the puncture voltage of gate oxide.
As mentioned above, the invention provides a kind of semiconductor device, its groove end at chip outermost edge place is connected in the edge groove to eliminate the top shape special construction of groove end, makes Lou and withstand voltage between the source can be obtained and increase and the insulation property of gate insulation layer are significantly improved.
