本发明涉及半导体器件制造领域,具体涉及一种深缓冲层高密度沟槽的IGBT器件及其制备方法。
背景技术
现有的传统IGBT的背面电场截止层,往往采用高能量的离子注入来实现,并通过热退火或激光退火来实现,例如当采用磷或砷时,注入深度在2-3um,通过激光退火,可以实现3-6um的深度范围,以及1e16-1e17/cm3的浓度范围;当采用质子、氦等轻离子时,注入深度可以在2-40um,通过热退火,可以实现3-40um的深度范围,以及1e16-1e17/cm3的浓度范围。这样的高能量注入机台成本较高,且对退火的要求也较高,需要在激活温度较低的情况下,尽可能的提高激活率。
现有的传统IGBT器件由于4-7um的沟槽深度,且沟槽密度不断增加导致晶圆在生产过程中容易产生非常大的翘曲度,并且在减薄后,进行背面高能注入以及退火时,容易发生应力分布不均匀,发生晶圆破碎,导致IGBT在更大的晶圆尺寸上难以推广生产。
