第1-8F圖繪示根據本發明各種實施例之半導體元件在不同製程階段的剖面示意圖。首先,請參照第1 圖,提供基材100。在一些實施例中,基材100包含p型摻雜層110、n型緩衝層120及n型漂移層130。基材100的材料可以包含矽(silicon)、碳化矽(silicon carbide)或其他合適的材料。 1-8F are schematic cross-sectional views showing semiconductor elements in different process stages in accordance with various embodiments of the present invention. First, please refer to the first The figure provides a substrate 100. In some embodiments, the substrate 100 includes a p-type doped layer 110, an n-type buffer layer 120, and an n-type drift layer 130. The material of the substrate 100 may comprise silicon, silicon carbide or other suitable materials.

之後,在基材100上形成圖案化遮罩層140。圖案化遮罩層140具有第一開口150,第一開口150暴露一部分的基材100。在某些實施例中,圖案化遮罩層140係形成於n型漂移層130上。在某些實施例中,圖案化遮罩層140的材料可以包含二氧化矽、其他氧化物或其他合適的材料。 Thereafter, a patterned mask layer 140 is formed on the substrate 100. The patterned mask layer 140 has a first opening 150 that exposes a portion of the substrate 100. In some embodiments, the patterned mask layer 140 is formed on the n-type drift layer 130. In some embodiments, the material of the patterned mask layer 140 can comprise ceria, other oxides, or other suitable materials.

請參照第2圖,移除基材100的暴露部分,以形成凹槽160於基材100中。凹槽160具有底部162以及側壁164。在某些實施例中,可以使用合適的製程移除基材100的暴露部分,舉例來說,乾蝕刻或濕蝕刻。在某些實施例中,基材100包含矽的情況下,凹槽160的深度係約1μm至約10μm。在某些實施例中,基材100包含碳化矽的情況下,凹槽160的深度係約1μm至約3μm。值得注意的是,在某些實施例中,圖案化遮罩層140係作為移除基材100的暴露部分的蝕刻製程中的遮罩。 Referring to FIG. 2, the exposed portion of the substrate 100 is removed to form the recess 160 in the substrate 100. The groove 160 has a bottom 162 and a side wall 164. In some embodiments, the exposed portion of substrate 100 can be removed using a suitable process, such as dry etching or wet etching. In certain embodiments, where the substrate 100 comprises tantalum, the depth of the grooves 160 is from about 1 [mu]m to about 10 [mu]m. In certain embodiments, where the substrate 100 comprises tantalum carbide, the depth of the grooves 160 is from about 1 [mu]m to about 3 [mu]m. Notably, in some embodiments, the patterned mask layer 140 acts as a mask in an etch process that removes exposed portions of the substrate 100.

接著請參照第3圖,經由第一開口150在凹槽160的底部162及側壁164摻雜第一n型摻雜劑,以形成電洞阻隔層170。在某些實施例中,電洞阻隔層170包圍凹槽160的底部162及側壁164。在某些實施例中,第一n型摻雜劑可以包含氮(Nitrogen)或磷(phosphorus)或砷(arsenic)。在某些實施例中,摻雜第一n型摻雜劑可以包含使用離子植入 (ionic implantation)或電漿離子浸潤(plasma ion implant immersion)。在一些實施例中,第一n型摻雜劑的摻雜濃度為約1×1015cm-3至約5×1019cm-3Next, referring to FIG. 3, the first n-type dopant is doped at the bottom 162 and the sidewall 164 of the recess 160 via the first opening 150 to form the hole barrier layer 170. In some embodiments, the hole barrier layer 170 surrounds the bottom 162 and sidewalls 164 of the recess 160. In certain embodiments, the first n-type dopant can comprise nitrogen (Nitrogen) or phosphorous or arsenic. In some embodiments, doping the first n-type dopant can comprise using an ionic implantation or a plasma ion implant immersion. In some embodiments, the first n-type dopant has a doping concentration of from about 1 x 10 15 cm -3 to about 5 x 10 19 cm -3 .

接著請參照第4圖,形成p型磊晶層180於凹槽160中。在某些實施例中,形成p型磊晶層180可以使用適當的製程達成,例如選擇性磊晶成長(selective epitaxial growth)。由於在氧化物上較難形成磊晶,故可以利用圖案化遮罩層140,使得p型磊晶層180形成於凹槽160中。值得注意的是,由於形成p型磊晶層180的製程需要在高溫的環境下執行,此高溫的環境可以使電洞阻隔層170的第一n型摻雜劑擴散,使得電洞阻隔層170的厚度增厚。利用形成p型磊晶層180的環境使電洞阻隔層170的厚度增加,可以簡化製程,而不需再另外執行加溫製程使電洞阻隔層170的第一n型摻雜劑擴散。在某些實施例中,在形成p型磊晶層180之後,電洞阻隔層170的厚度可以為小於或等於3μm。在某些基材100包含矽的實施例中,電洞阻隔層170的厚度可以為約0.5μm至約3μm。在某些基材100包含碳化矽的實施例中,電洞阻隔層170的厚度可以為小於或等於0.5μm。 Next, referring to FIG. 4, a p-type epitaxial layer 180 is formed in the recess 160. In some embodiments, forming the p-type epitaxial layer 180 can be accomplished using a suitable process, such as selective epitaxial growth. Since epitaxy is more difficult to form on the oxide, the patterned mask layer 140 can be utilized such that the p-type epitaxial layer 180 is formed in the recess 160. It should be noted that since the process of forming the p-type epitaxial layer 180 needs to be performed in a high temperature environment, the high temperature environment can diffuse the first n-type dopant of the hole barrier layer 170, so that the hole barrier layer 170 The thickness is thickened. By increasing the thickness of the hole barrier layer 170 by the environment in which the p-type epitaxial layer 180 is formed, the process can be simplified without additionally performing a warming process to diffuse the first n-type dopant of the hole barrier layer 170. In some embodiments, after forming the p-type epitaxial layer 180, the thickness of the hole blocking layer 170 may be less than or equal to 3 μm. In some embodiments in which the substrate 100 comprises tantalum, the hole barrier layer 170 can have a thickness of from about 0.5 [mu]m to about 3 [mu]m. In some embodiments in which the substrate 100 comprises tantalum carbide, the thickness of the hole barrier layer 170 may be less than or equal to 0.5 μm.

請參照第5圖,在形成p型磊晶層180後,執行化學機械研磨製程(chemical-mechanical polishing,CMP),以平坦化p型磊晶層180。值得注意的是,在某些實施例中,在以化學機械研磨製程平坦化p型磊晶層180後,由於化學機械研磨製程本身的限制的關係,靠近圖案化遮罩層140的p型磊晶層180的部分尚具有不平整的表面。 Referring to FIG. 5, after the p-type epitaxial layer 180 is formed, a chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP) is performed to planarize the p-type epitaxial layer 180. It should be noted that in some embodiments, after planarizing the p-type epitaxial layer 180 by a chemical mechanical polishing process, the p-type Lei near the patterned mask layer 140 is limited by the chemical mechanical polishing process itself. The portion of the layer 180 still has an uneven surface.

接著請參照第6圖,移除圖案化遮罩層140,以暴露基材100的表面、電洞阻隔層170的表面及p型磊晶層180的表面。在某些實施例中,進行此步驟後,p型磊晶層180的兩側尚具有不平整的表面。本發明實施方式亦提供一種平坦化方法,可以平坦化p型磊晶層180的兩側的不平整表面,請見以下第7A-7B圖及第8A-8C圖所描述之製程。在某些實施例中,移除圖案化遮罩層140可以用合適的方法達成,可例如乾蝕刻製程或濕蝕刻製程。 Next, referring to FIG. 6, the patterned mask layer 140 is removed to expose the surface of the substrate 100, the surface of the hole barrier layer 170, and the surface of the p-type epitaxial layer 180. In some embodiments, after this step, the p-type epitaxial layer 180 has an uneven surface on both sides. Embodiments of the present invention also provide a planarization method for planarizing uneven surfaces on both sides of the p-type epitaxial layer 180, as described in the following FIGS. 7A-7B and 8A-8C. In some embodiments, removing the patterned mask layer 140 can be accomplished in a suitable manner, such as a dry etch process or a wet etch process.

根據本發明某些實施例,第7A-7E圖所示的製程可適用於基材100包含矽的半導體元件,並在執行第6圖所示的製程後,執行第7A-7E圖所示之製程。在第7A圖中,形成犧牲氧化層210於基材100上。值得注意的是,犧牲氧化層210係共形形成於基材100上,也就是說,原本在第6圖中p型磊晶層180的兩側的不平整表面被氧化。另外,由於係在高溫的環境下形成犧牲氧化層210,此高溫的環境亦可以使p型磊晶層180的p型摻雜劑擴散至基材100中,使得p型磊晶層180的厚度增加。利用形成犧牲氧化層210的環境使p型磊晶層180的厚度增加,可以減少製程的步驟,而不需再另外執行加溫製程使p型磊晶層180的p型摻雜劑擴散。在某些實施例中,犧牲氧化層210的材料可為矽氧化物,例如二氧化矽(SiO2)。 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the process illustrated in FIGS. 7A-7E can be applied to a semiconductor device including a germanium substrate 100, and after performing the process illustrated in FIG. 6, performing the processes shown in FIGS. 7A-7E Process. In FIG. 7A, a sacrificial oxide layer 210 is formed on the substrate 100. It is to be noted that the sacrificial oxide layer 210 is conformally formed on the substrate 100, that is, the uneven surface on both sides of the p-type epitaxial layer 180 originally in FIG. 6 is oxidized.

The sacrificial oxide layer 310 is conformally formed on the substrate 100, that is, the uneven surface on both sides of the p-type epitaxial layer 180 originally in FIG. 6 is oxidized. Since the sacrificial oxide layer 310 is formed in a high-temperature environment, the p-type dopant of the p-type epitaxial layer 180 can be diffused into the substrate 100 in a high-temperature environment, so that the thickness of the p-type epitaxial layer 180 is increased. . By diffusing the p-type dopant by the high temperature environment in which the sacrificial oxide layer 310 is formed, the thickness of the p-type epitaxial layer 180 is increased, and the process of the process can be reduced without additionally performing a heating process such as annealing. In some embodiments, the material of the sacrificial oxide layer 310 can be a tantalum oxide such as hafnium oxide (SiO 2 ).
