Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a silicon carbide MOSFET device and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Silicon carbide is used as a third-generation semiconductor material, the critical breakdown field strength of the silicon carbide is 10 times that of a Si material, the forbidden bandwidth and the thermal conductivity of the silicon carbide are 3 times that of the Si material, and the concentration of an intrinsic carrier is only one tenth that of the Si material. Wherein, the wide forbidden band characteristic can realize lower leakage current and high-temperature working capacity; the thickness of the drift region of the blocking voltage can be reduced by 10 times by the strength of the high-critical breakdown electric field, so that the on resistance of the high-voltage class device is greatly reduced; while high thermal conductivity may allow for higher power dissipation in the device and reduce the requirements for cooling equipment. These significant advantages make silicon carbide an ideal material for making high power, high frequency, high temperature resistant, radiation resistant devices.
The silicon carbide MOSFET device is a switch type device applied to the high-power field and mainly applied to the voltage range of 650V to 1700V. Compared with silicon-based IGBT, the silicon carbide MOSFET has parasitic body diode, and can realize protection without additional parallel diode, but the parasitic body diode has obvious disadvantages while bringing advantages. Since silicon carbide MOSFETs have lattice defects such as Basal Plane Dislocations (BPDs), the parasitic body diode of the silicon carbide MOSFET transfers holes in the P region to the N-type silicon carbide drift layer during turn-on, and when electrons and holes recombine at crystal defects of the drift layer, the crystal defects may be further enlarged by the energy of the electrons and holes, so that bipolar degradation occurs, and a large defect region occurs. Larger defect areas may reduce device performance, such as increasing on-resistance and increasing leakage current.

The technical scheme of the invention is as follows: a silicon carbide MOSFET device comprises a silicon carbide substrate and a silicon carbide drift layer which are sequentially arranged from bottom to top;

Specifically, the conductivity types of the silicon carbide substrate and the silicon carbide drift layer are both N-type.
Specifically, the doping impurity and the concentration of the first PP region and the second PP region are the same.
Specifically, the doping impurities of the first PP region and the second PP region are Al ions, and the doping concentration is 5E18/cm 3 。

A preparation method of a silicon carbide MOSFET device comprises the following steps:
s100, epitaxially growing a silicon carbide drift layer on a silicon carbide substrate;
s200, preliminarily forming a PW region on the silicon carbide drift layer through ion implantation;
s300, forming an NP region on the silicon carbide drift layer preliminarily through ion implantation;
s400, forming a groove at the source level on the silicon carbide drift layer through an etching process;
s500, respectively preliminarily forming PP regions on the silicon carbide drift layer and the trenches at the source level by ion implantation;
s600, forming PW region, NP region and PP region by activating diffusion;
s700, forming a gate oxide layer on the silicon carbide drift layer through dry oxygen growth;
s800, forming a Poly layer on the gate oxide layer by depositing polysilicon, and leading out the Poly layer as a gate electrode;
s900, depositing silicon dioxide connected with the NP region on the Poly layer to form an isolation layer;
s1000, depositing source-level ohmic contact metal on the NP region and the PP region;
s1100, source-level Schottky contact metal which is deposited on the top surface of source-level ohmic contact metal and passes through a groove at the source level is arranged between isolation layers;
and S1200, depositing front source metal on the uppermost part of the device and leading out as a source electrode.
Specifically, the PP region includes a first PP region disposed on the NP region side and a second PP region (6 b) disposed in the trench at the source.
Specifically, the depth of the trench at the source in step S400 is greater than the depth of the PW region by 0.2-0.3um.
Specifically, the implanted ions in steps S200 and S500 are Al ions, respectively.
Specifically, the implanted ions in step S300 are N ions.
According to the invention, the trench body diode is formed in the silicon carbide MOSFET, so that the body diode is conducted from the N-type drift layer, the conducting capacity of the body diode is improved, and the lattice defect spreading caused by the recombination phenomenon of electrons and holes is effectively avoided, thereby reducing the device performance degradation caused by the bipolar degradation phenomenon. Because the structure is easy to cause the increase of leakage current between the source electrode and the drain electrode of the silicon carbide MOSFET device, the high-doped P region is formed by injecting under the trench body diode, so that the high-doped P region, the PW region and the N-type drift layer form an electric field shielding region, the increase of leakage current is avoided, and the pressure resistance of the device is ensured.

Further defined, the PP region includes a first PP region 6a disposed on the NP region 4 side and a second PP region 6b disposed within the trench 5 at the source.
Further defined, the depth of the trench 5 at the source in step S400 is greater than the depth of the PW region 3 by 0.2-0.3um.
Principle of: the trench schottky junction diode is easy to cause leakage current increase between the source and the drain, so in the device turn-off process, in order to avoid the leakage current increase, the depth of the trench 5 at the source is not easy to be larger than the junction depth of the PW region 3, if the depth is too large, the leakage current flowing to the schottky junction diode is not easy to pinch off between the PP region two 6b and the PW region 3, and therefore the depth of the trench is set to be 0.2-0.3um. It is verified that the body diode current capacity of the SiC MOSFET is improved by about 120% compared with the conventional SiC MOSFET.
Further limited, the implantation ions in steps S200 and S500 are Al ions, respectively, with implantation energy ranging from 30 to 500keV and implantation dose ranging from 1E12 to 1E16cm -2 The injection temperature is 400-600 ℃.
Further limiting the implantation ion in the step S300 to N ion with implantation energy ranging from 20 to 300keV and implantation dosage ranging from 3.6E11 to 1E15cm -2 The injection temperature is normal temperature.
Further defined, the high temperature activation annealing temperature in step S600 is 1600 ℃ -1900 ℃.
The innovation points of the scheme are as follows:
1. the through-current capability of the device body diode is improved: compared with PN junction diode, the Schottky junction diode has lower forward voltage drop and stronger through-current capability. In this case, by forming a trench schottky junction diode in the SiC MOSFET, the body diode is converted from a PN junction diode to a schottky junction diode, and the schottky junction contact area is further increased, so that the current passing capability of the body diode is improved. Simulation shows that compared with the parasitic body diode of the conventional SiC MOSFET device, the body diode current capacity of the SiC MOSFET can be improved by about 120 percent
2. Reducing the risk of bipolar degradation of the device: bipolar degradation of SiC MOSFETs is due to defect propagation caused by holes of PW region 3 entering the N-drift layer and recombining with electrons thereof during body diode operation. The body diode is transferred from the PN junction diode of the PW region 3 to the Schottky diode of the N-drift layer, so that holes of the PW region 3 are prevented from entering the N-drift layer, and the bipolar degradation risk of the device is reduced.
