Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to a depletion mode power MOSFET, in particular to a shielded gate depletion mode power MOSFET.
Background
Power MOSFETs are generally classified into enhancement type and depletion type according to the gate driving method. Since the depletion type MOSFET is a normally-on device, the device is in a conducting state between the drain and the source when no voltage is applied to the gate, and the device conduction channel gradually narrows until completely turned off when a voltage lower than the source is applied to the gate. Due to the unique performance of the depletion type MOSFET, the depletion type MOSFET has incomparable advantages in the practical application of circuits, and the depletion type MOSFET is widely applied to solid-state relays, "normally open" switches, linear operational amplifiers, constant current sources, constant voltage sources, switching power supplies and the like at present.
The conventional depletion type MOSFET is mainly manufactured by a planar process (for example, patent application No. CN 201410060184.0), and the main method is to pre-form a channel on the silicon surface by implanting arsenic ions, which has the advantage of uniform distribution of arsenic ions on the silicon surface. Because the conducting channels are distributed on the silicon surface, when a medium-low voltage device is manufactured, the density of the conducting channels cannot be further improved due to the limitation of a cellular structure, and the on-resistance and the current passing capacity of the device are obviously influenced. In addition, the depletion type MOSFET is manufactured by adopting a planar process, a well region is usually manufactured first, and then a polysilicon gate is manufactured.
In order to increase the channel density of medium-low voltage depletion type MOSFETs, thereby reducing the on-resistance and improving the current passing capability thereof, manufacturers have adopted a trench structure to fabricate a depletion type MOSFET (for example, patent application nos. CN 201410404340.0 and CN 201821564557.8). When channel ion doping is carried out, a large number of ions with the same doping type as that of the drift region are necessarily gathered at the bottom of the groove, so that when the device is in an off state, the high-concentration doping of the part can greatly reduce the breakdown voltage of the whole device.
In order to solve the problem of the influence of the trench bottom weak point of the trench depletion type MOSFET on the device breakdown voltage, manufacturers add a region opposite to the channel conductivity type at the trench bottom, and use the charge balance principle to improve the device breakdown voltage (for example, patent application No. CN 201811195273.0). Because the added special area adopts a doping mode, the cell size cannot be further reduced due to the problems of doping photoetching precision and doping transverse diffusion.
