Detailed Description
For a further understanding of the present invention, reference will now be made in detail to the embodiments illustrated in the drawings.
Example 1
With reference to fig. 3 and 4, the trench gate power MOS transistor including the semi-insulating region of the present embodiment includes the second conductivity type doped source region 21, the first conductivity type doped base region 22, and the semi-insulating region 222, where the second conductivity type doped source region 21 is located above the first conductivity type doped base region 22 and the semi-insulating region 222 that are arranged side by side, and the bottom of the semi-insulating region 222 is in contact with the second conductivity type doped drift layer 12.
The semi-insulating region 222 reduces the area where the parasitic BJT exists, that is, reduces the number of the parasitic BJT, and only a small number of parasitic BJT exists under the channel area, but because the number of the parasitic BJT is greatly reduced, the current in the MOSFET under the UIS condition is reduced, the temperature rise is limited, the time for the MOSFET to generate the avalanche breakdown is increased from 8 microseconds theoretically to 36 microseconds, the time integral of the voltage to the current is increased, the avalanche breakdown energy is increased, and sufficient time is provided for the intervention of the protection circuit.
The paper "Dynamics of Power MOSFET Switching over Undredged Experimental Loading Conditions" is by shallow P+The high doping concentration of the protective layer reduces the base resistance and the base potential of the parasitic BJT, thereby inhibiting or delaying the conduction of the parasitic BJT in figure 1; the invention discloses a super-junction MOSFET device with an optimized avalanche breakdown current path, which is disclosed in the patent with the publication number of CN 102832245B, wherein a second conductive type semiconductor doped island region is added, and the structure of the device is improved, so that the avalanche breakdown current is far away from the base region of a parasitic BJT, and the avalanche breakdown current path when the super-junction MOSFET device is subjected to avalanche breakdown is changed, and the BJT is prevented from being started due to the fact that the source electrode of the parasitic BJT is positively biased, and the reliability of the device is improved. The two documents have the same idea for solving the problems: starting from the conduction or non-conduction of the BJT, reducing the leakage current of the groove gate power MOS transistor; the present invention abandons the above thought, does not consider whether the BJT is turned on or not, introduces the semi-insulating region 222 to solve the problem of low avalanche resistance of the device under the condition that the prior art scheme does not give any technical inspiration, reduces the leakage current of the trench gate power MOS transistor from the viewpoint of reducing the number of parasitic BJTs to improve avalanche resistance, and brings unexpected technical effects on other performance aspects of the device.

Example 8
With reference to fig. 3 and 4, the method for manufacturing a trench gate power MOS transistor including a semi-insulating region according to this embodiment may be used to manufacture a trench gate power MOS transistor including a semi-insulating region according to any one of embodiments 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, and is different from embodiments 6 and 7 in that: implanting impurities of the first conductivity type in step A to form a surface having a concentration of 2X 1017cm-3。
The threshold voltage of about 3.5V is obtained, and the requirement of a normal power converter device is met. The concentration of surface impurity elements is used for determining the threshold voltage, the threshold voltage of a normal device is generally 3-5V, the threshold voltage is too low to cause false triggering, and the threshold voltage is too high to increase conduction loss and driving loss.
Example 9
With reference to fig. 3 and 4, the method for manufacturing a trench gate power MOS transistor including a semi-insulating region according to this embodiment may be used to manufacture a trench gate power MOS transistor including a semi-insulating region according to any one of embodiments 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, and compared with embodiments 6, 7, and 8, the difference is that: and the impurity implantation in the step A and the step B is multiple ion implantation to form box-type doping distribution.
The impurity element implantation processes in the steps A, B and C both adopt an ion implantation process; and the impurity implantation is repeated ion implantation to form box-type doping distribution, and annealing is carried out at a proper temperature under the protection of inert gas after the ion implantation.
Ion implantation is the most common doping method in semiconductor process and the most suitable doping method in the present invention, and diffusion is also the common doping method in semiconductor, but the doping in step A, B, C is implemented on an epitaxial wafer, and ion implantation is the most effective and time-saving method, especially the most suitable method for preparing the third generation semiconductor material silicon carbide with high power, and the diffusion process is almost not feasible, and high-energy ion implantation is necessary to implement the impurity element implantation in steps A, B and C.
The semiconductor doping formed by single ion implantation is often gaussian distributed, the box-type distribution is generally formed by multiple ion implantation, the doping distribution of the second conductivity type in the drift layer 12 of the second conductivity type semiconductor doping of the purchased epitaxial wafer is often uniform, so that the uniform doping in the drift layer 12 of the second conductivity type semiconductor doping can be completely neutralized only by the box-type doping formed by multiple ion implantation in the step a. Further, the ion implantation process is also performed multiple times in step B, so that the insulating region 222 and the second conductive type semiconductor doped drift layer 12 formed in this way form a structure of an insulating layer/second conductive type semiconductor doped drift layer 12 with higher insulating strength, which is beneficial to improving the blocking voltage of the MOS transistor. After ion implantation, annealing is needed to activate the implanted ions, otherwise active doping cannot be formed, i.e. no effect is achieved; the temperature is typically several hundred degrees and varies from substrate material to substrate material.

The depth of the semi-insulating region 222 is also limited by the ion implantation process, and the two ensure that the effective channel length of the trench gate power MOS transistor is not changed due to the introduction of the semi-insulating region 222, and ensure that the parameters of the trench gate power MOS transistor, such as the threshold voltage, the on-resistance, the transconductance, and the output characteristic, are not changed due to the introduction of the semi-insulating region. The channel current carrier is ensured to be stably transported without exceeding the threshold, otherwise, the formed abrupt junction forms a potential barrier on the current carrier, and the normal work of the device is not facilitated.
