Description
技术领域technical field
本发明属于电力电子器件技术领域,涉及一种具有非均匀体二极管的SiC MOSFET器件。The invention belongs to the technical field of power electronic devices, and relates to a SiC MOSFET device with a non-uniform body diode.
背景技术Background technique
由于SiC材料具有禁带宽度大,热导率高,临界雪崩击穿电场强度高,饱和载流子漂移速度大,热稳定性好等特点,SiC MOSFET具备低导通损耗、快开关速度、高工作频率等诸多优异特性。相较于Si IGBT,SiC MOSFET具有更高的效率与功率密度,非常适合应用于电能变换领域。然而,由于SiC栅氧化层界面态密度较高、可靠性较差等问题的影响,SiCMOSFET一般难以承受较高的结温,这不仅限制了SiC MOSFET的工作温度范围,还对SiCMOSFET的可靠性造成不良影响。Because SiC material has the characteristics of large band gap, high thermal conductivity, high critical avalanche breakdown electric field strength, high saturated carrier drift velocity, and good thermal stability, SiC MOSFET has low conduction loss, fast switching speed, high Operating frequency and many other excellent characteristics. Compared with Si IGBT, SiC MOSFET has higher efficiency and power density, which is very suitable for application in the field of power conversion. However, due to the high interface state density and poor reliability of the SiC gate oxide layer, SiC MOSFETs are generally difficult to withstand high junction temperatures, which not only limits the operating temperature range of SiC MOSFETs, but also affects the reliability of SiC MOSFETs. adverse effects.
2019年,Yusuke Kobayashi等在其文章《High-temperature Performance of 1.2kV-class SiC Super Junction MOSFET》中,研究了SiC SJ-MOSFET的高温特性,阐明了SiCMOSFET体二极管软恢复的机理,为降低SiC MOSFET功耗、减少SiC MOSFET自热的研究提供了理论支持。2020年,Kijeong Han等在其文章《1.2-kV 4H-SiC SenseFET WithMonolithically Integrated Sensing Resistor》中通过向1.2kV SiC MOSFET中集成SenseFET的技术方案,实现了SiC MOSFET结温的准确在线监控,为SiC MOSFET芯片的健康运行提供了重要监测技术保障。虽然上述技术方案在降低SiC MOSFET自热、实时监控SiCMOSFET结温方面获得了良好的效果,但SiC MOSFET芯片工作状态下,由于芯片不同区域散热效率的不同,芯片不同区域间会出现温度梯度,芯片中央区域往往表现出较高的结温,使得SiC MOSFET芯片在部分区域结温未达极限的情况下仍存在高温失效的风险,对SiCMOSFET芯片的可靠性造成不利影响。In 2019, Yusuke Kobayashi et al. studied the high temperature characteristics of SiC SJ-MOSFET in their article "High-temperature Performance of 1.2kV-class SiC Super Junction MOSFET", and clarified the mechanism of soft recovery of SiC MOSFET body diode. Research on reducing power consumption and reducing self-heating of SiC MOSFETs provides theoretical support. In 2020, Kijeong Han et al. in their article "1.2-kV 4H-SiC SenseFET With Monolithically Integrated Sensing Resistor" realized the accurate online monitoring of SiC MOSFET junction temperature through the technical solution of integrating SenseFET into 1.2kV SiC MOSFET. The healthy operation of the chip provides an important monitoring technology guarantee. Although the above technical solutions have achieved good results in reducing the self-heating of SiC MOSFETs and monitoring the junction temperature of SiC MOSFETs in real time, under the working state of SiC MOSFET chips, due to the difference in heat dissipation efficiency in different regions of the chip, there will be temperature gradients between different regions of the chip. The central region often exhibits a higher junction temperature, so that the SiC MOSFET chip still has the risk of high temperature failure when the junction temperature in some regions does not reach the limit, which has an adverse effect on the reliability of the SiC MOSFET chip.

本发明的SiC MOSFET器件含有非均匀的体二极管,即体二极管的横向宽度非均匀,体二极管的耐压层杂质浓度非均匀,同时SiC MOSFET元胞的漂移区杂质浓度分均匀。由于芯片体二极管的横向宽度自芯片边缘至芯片中央呈递增规律分布,当SiC MOSFET处于正向导通状态时,体二极管处于截止状态,芯片中央区域的沟道占比低于芯片边缘区域的沟道占比,因此芯片中央区域单位面积的电阻高于芯片边缘区域单位面积的电阻,又由于芯片各处压降Uon一致,则根据Pon=Uon 2/R可知,芯片中央区域的自热小于芯片边缘区域的自热,芯片中央结温突出的现象得到了抑制,优化了现有SiC MOSFET芯片热分布,改善了现有SiC MOSFET芯片工作状态内部温度分布不均匀问题,提升了现有SiC MOSFET芯片的可靠性。另一方面,由于体二极管的耐压层杂质浓度非均匀,体二极管的耐压区杂质浓度自上至下也呈递增规律分布,本发明体二极管较现有SiC MOSFET的体二极管具有更强的耐压能力;当芯片处于开关动作状态时,杂质浓度自上至下呈递增规律所产生的由下指向上的感生电场能够加速体二极管反向恢复状态下的载流子抽取速度,缩短体二极管的恢复时间,降低了芯片的开关损耗,减小了自热。同时,由于SiC MOSFET器件的漂移区杂质浓度自上至下呈递增的规律,当芯片处于截止状态时,漂移区完全耗尽,电离施主的浓度自上至下呈递增规律分布,因此电场强度自上至下降低速率呈先缓后急的规律,相比于现有漂移区杂质呈均匀分布的SiC MOSFET,本发明SiC MOSFET器件的耐压能力更强;当芯片处于正向导通状态时,漂移区未完全耗尽,在未耗尽区域,由于施主杂质浓度自上至下呈递增的规律,会形成由下指向上的感生电场,电子会在感生电场的作用下加速漂移,使芯片的通态电阻得到降低,减小了芯片的功耗,降低了自热。The SiC MOSFET device of the present invention contains a non-uniform body diode, that is, the lateral width of the body diode is non-uniform, the impurity concentration of the withstand voltage layer of the body diode is non-uniform, and the impurity concentration in the drift region of the SiC MOSFET cell is uniform. Since the lateral width of the body diode of the chip is distributed from the edge of the chip to the center of the chip, when the SiC MOSFET is in the forward conduction state, the body diode is in the cut-off state, and the channel ratio in the central area of the chip is lower than that in the edge area of the chip. Therefore, the resistance per unit area of the central area of the chip is higher than the resistance per unit area of the edge area of the chip, and since the voltage drop U on is consistent across the chip, it can be known from P on = U on 2 /R that the self-heating of the central area of the chip Smaller than the self-heating of the edge area of the chip, the phenomenon of prominent junction temperature in the center of the chip is suppressed, the heat distribution of the existing SiC MOSFET chip is optimized, the problem of uneven internal temperature distribution in the working state of the existing SiC MOSFET chip is improved, and the existing SiC MOSFET chip is improved. Reliability of MOSFET chips. On the other hand, due to the non-uniform impurity concentration of the withstand voltage layer of the body diode, the impurity concentration in the withstand voltage region of the body diode also shows an increasing regular distribution from top to bottom, and the body diode of the present invention has a stronger Withstand voltage capability; when the chip is in the switching action state, the induced electric field from bottom to top generated by the increasing law of impurity concentration from top to bottom can accelerate the carrier extraction speed of the body diode in the reverse recovery state and shorten the body diode. The recovery time of the diode reduces the switching loss of the chip and reduces self-heating. At the same time, because the impurity concentration in the drift region of the SiC MOSFET device increases from top to bottom, when the chip is in the off state, the drift region is completely exhausted, and the concentration of ionized donors increases from top to bottom, so the electric field strength is from top to bottom. The rate of decrease from top to bottom is slow first and then fast. Compared with the existing SiC MOSFET with uniform distribution of impurities in the drift region, the SiC MOSFET device of the present invention has a stronger withstand voltage capability; when the chip is in the forward conduction state, the drift The region is not completely depleted. In the non-depleted region, due to the increasing law of the donor impurity concentration from top to bottom, an induced electric field will be formed from bottom to top, and electrons will accelerate drift under the action of the induced electric field, making the chip The on-state resistance is reduced, which reduces the power consumption of the chip and reduces self-heating.
