Description
実施の形態1にかかる半導体装置は、シリコン(Si)よりもバンドギャップが広い半導体(ワイドバンドギャップ半導体とする)を用いて構成される。この実施の形態1にかかる半導体装置の構造について、ワイドバンドギャップ半導体として例えば炭化珪素(SiC)を用いた場合を例に説明する。図1は、実施の形態1にかかる炭化珪素半導体装置の構造を示す平面図である。図2は、実施の形態1にかかる炭化珪素半導体装置の構造を示す図1のA-A’断面図である。図3は、実施の形態1にかかる炭化珪素半導体装置の構造を示す図1のB-B’断面図である。図4は、実施の形態1にかかる炭化珪素半導体装置の構造を示す図1のC-C’断面図である。
Px’=Lg’+2Ln’+Lp’
Py’=1
Wch’=2Py’
Dch’=Wch’/(Px’×Py’)=2/(Lg’+2Ln’+Lp’)
Px=Lg+Ln
Py=2Wp+Wpc+Wn
Wch=2Wn(チャネルはn+型ソース領域7の両側に形成されるため)
Dch=Wch/(Px×Py)=2Wn/{(Lg+Ln)×(2Wp+Wpc+Wn)}
Wn≧(2Wp+Wpc)×Px/(Px’-Px)=(2Wp+Wpc)×(Lg+Ln)/(Lg’+2Ln’+Lp’-Lg-Ln)
が成り立つことにより、実施の形態1にかかる炭化珪素半導体装置で、従来の炭化珪素半導体装置より、チャネル幅密度を向上させることができる。
次に、実施の形態1にかかる炭化珪素半導体装置の製造方法について説明する。図7~図12は、実施の形態1にかかる炭化珪素半導体装置の製造途中の状態を示す断面図である。
図13は、実施の形態2にかかる炭化珪素半導体装置の構造を示す平面図である。図14は、実施の形態2にかかる炭化珪素半導体装置の構造を示す図12のA-A’断面図である。図15は、実施の形態2にかかる炭化珪素半導体装置の構造を示す図12のB-B’断面図である。
Px=n×(Lg+Ln)+Lg+Lp
Py=2Wp+Wpc+Wn
Wch=2nWn
Dch=Wch/(Px×Py)=2nWn/[{n(Lg+Ln)+Lg+Lp}×(2Wp+Wpc+Wn)]
Wn≧(2Wp+Wpc)×Px/(nPx’-Px)=(2Wp+Wpc)×{n(Lg+Ln)+Lg+Lp}/{n(Lg’+2Ln’+Lp’)-n(Lg+Ln)-Lg-Lp}
が成り立つことにより、実施の形態2にかかる炭化珪素半導体装置で、従来の炭化珪素半導体装置より、チャネル幅密度を向上させることができる。
