Technical field
The utility model belongs to semiconductor power device technology field, relates to a kind of high voltage power device, concrete a kind of longitudinally super-junction metal oxide field effect transistor.
Background technology
Conventional high-tension power metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor device is made voltage support layer with low-doped extension drift layer, and its conducting resistance is exactly mainly drift layer resistance.The voltage endurance capability of drift layer is determined by its thickness and doping content.So, in order to improve puncture voltage, must increase drift layer thickness simultaneously and reduce its doping content.This just makes the resistance of drift layer constantly increase, and in the time of conducting state when high pressure (especially), drift layer resistance accounts for the overwhelming majority of conducting resistance.
Super-junction metal oxide field effect transistor is the new device that a kind of insulated gate structure advantage with metal oxide semiconductor transistor has high current density low on-resistance advantage simultaneously, and it is a kind of power semiconductor that can be used for the conduction loss that effectively reduces traditional power metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor.It is the charge compensation type device based on charge balance concept.
The basic characteristics of super-junction metal oxide field effect transistor are that its drift region being made up of the region of interval n-and p-doping is realized withstand voltage.Conventional high-tension power metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor device in the time bearing high back voltage, its mainly rely on PN junction longitudinally exhaust realize withstand voltagely, at the pn of whole device knot, place there will be electric field strength peak value.And super-junction metal oxide field effect transistor is owing to having introduced charge compensation mechanism, its inside is exhausting when withstand voltage, Electric Field Distribution is more even, with the triangle peak value Electric Field Distribution of conventional high-tension power metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor device, the device inside electric field of super-junction metal oxide field effect transistor is distributed rectangular in longitudinal withstand voltage direction.Rectangle electric-field intensity distribution, makes its whole device exhausting in withstand voltage process, does not occur anomalous electric field peak value.Owing to making p type island region in vertical direction, can compensate excessive current lead-through electric charge.Add reverse bias voltage at drift layer, electric field will produce cross stream component, and pn knot is exhausted.In the time that voltage reaches certain value, drift layer exhausts completely, will play the effect of voltage support layer.Therefore the impurity doping content of its voltage support layer can improve an order of magnitude nearly, and due to the significantly raising of doping content, under identical puncture voltage, conducting resistance can reduce greatly.Therefore pass through continuous Improvement and perfection, the new construction of super-junction metal oxide field effect transistor device constantly occurs.
Also be the focus that researcher pays close attention to for the design of super-junction metal oxide field effect transistor terminal structure always.Super-junction metal oxide field effect transistor terminal structure is different from conventional high-tension power metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor device, and the design of its structure can combine with inner super-junction structure.In correlation technique, there is designer to propose to change the width ratio in pn region, also there is designer to propose cycle of dwindling by multiplying power PN doped region etc.These methods are all better withstand voltage in order to realize super-junction metal oxide field effect transistor terminal structure.But in prior art, the terminal structure of super-junction metal oxide effect transistor is due to surface potential skewness, and surface leakage phenomenon easily occurs on the surface of its terminal pressure-resistance structure, can cause the gathering of mobile ion simultaneously, makes the withstand voltage decline of device.
