Description

A kind of junction termination structures of lateral power
Technical field
The invention belongs to semiconductor power device technology and field of semiconductor technology, relate in particular to the lateral power knot terminal technology of high-power and high-voltage applications, as horizontal proliferation field-effect transistor LDMOS, horizontal high-voltage diode, landscape insulation bar double-pole-type transistor LIGBT etc.
Background technology
As everyone knows, in the design process of lateral power, must take all factors into consideration influencing each other of factors such as puncture voltage, conducting resistance, process complexity and reliability, make it reach a comparatively reasonably compromise.The common raising of performance in a certain respect tends to cause the degeneration of others performance, and puncture voltage and conducting resistance promptly exist such contradictory relation.How when improving puncture voltage, the constant of conducting resistance can be kept or the focus that conducting resistance is research always can be reduced as best one can.
For conventional lateral power, influenced owing to tie the edge curvature effect, puncture voltage can be had a greatly reduced quality than theoretical value, and particularly performance is particularly evident under the situation of shallow junction diffusion and small curve.For addressing this problem, the article that people such as A.S.Grove delivered in March, 1967 " surface field is to the influence of plane PN junction puncture voltage " (IEEE TransElectron Devices, vol.ED-14, field plate techniques has been proposed pp.157-162) at first, originally it is used to reduce the PN junction peak electric field,, technology simple in structure because of it and integrated circuit technology are compatible fully and effect is obvious, so obtained rapidly using widely in the discrete junction device of high pressure, power MOS (Metal Oxide Semiconductor) device, high-voltage power integrated circuit.The basic structure of field plate as shown in Figure 1, on Semiconductor substrate 100, carry out twice doping respectively and form the first kind conductiving type semiconductor area 102 and the second class conductiving type semiconductor area 104, promptly constitute PN junction, on silicon dioxide layer 120 above this PN junction, cover layer of metal layer 110, we claim that this metal level is the metal field plate, if at the suitable voltage of field plate upper offset, to induce interface charge at the upper surface of silicon, the electric field that these interface charges produce can weaken the peak value electric field of PN junction greatly, thereby improves puncture voltage.
United States Patent (USP) 6468837 applies to field plate techniques in RESURF (the reduced surface field) device, and has provided technologic performing step, and its structure as shown in Figure 2.It is mainly by lightly doped first kind conductive type epitaxial layer semiconductor regions 100, the semiconductor regions 102 of first kind conduction type, the semiconductor regions 101 of heavily doped first kind conduction type, the semiconductor regions 103,105 of the second class conduction type, the more lightly doped second class conductiving type semiconductor area 104 (Resurf implantation region), cover the oxygen district, field 120 on the semiconductor regions 104, development length surpasses above grid field plate 110 composition such as grade of half length of oxygen.This structure and the difference of common Resurf LDMOS device are that mainly grid has extended one section field plate, knot field, edge surface peak is inhibited, thereby has improved puncture voltage.Yet for this common planar field plate, an outstanding problem of existence is that the field plate boundary will form high peak electric field, thereby has limited the further raising of puncture voltage.
In order to solve the problem of the high peak electric field in field plate edge, the article that people such as K.Brieger delivered in May, 1988 " a kind of analytic approximation of optimization field plate profile " (IEEE TransElectron Devices, Vol.35, pp.684-688) show when the oxidated layer thickness of field plate below increases continuously with certain gradient by Theoretical Calculation the earliest in, can eliminate the peak electric field of field plate below fully, so proposed the notion of oblique field plate.Though yet tiltedly field plate can be realized surface field fully uniformly, but is difficult to make, and is especially incompatible with integrated circuit technology.United States Patent (USP) 753930 has provided the LDMOS structure of multi-ladder field plate structure, as shown in Figure 3.Different with conventional LDMOS is, is increasing stair-stepping oxide layer 120 and polysilicon field plate 110 near drain terminal, and the field plate of minimum single order carries out electricity with the source end again and is connected.The Electric Field Distribution of this structure lower surface drift region is more even, and voltage endurance is improved to a certain extent.Yet the shortcoming of this method is to need a plurality of additional masking versions and multistep additional process to make the multi-ladder field plate, has increased process complexity, has improved cost.
A kind of lateral power structure of segmentation field plate has been proposed, as shown in Figure 4 in the United States Patent (USP) 7230313.The distinguishing feature of this structure is to have multistage to separate the field plate 110,112,114,116 of certain distance on surface oxide layer 120.Each field plate is biased different voltage by the potential-divider network that is connected and composed by many resistance, can make the peak electric field at each field plate edge be tending towards identical, i.e. critical breakdown electric field, thus puncture voltage is improved.But to the lateral power of this structure, potential-divider network more complicated and be not easy to regulate.
Above-mentioned various structures all are to reach at power device surface preparation field plate to regulate surperficial effect of electric field, but the preparation technology of the multistage scalariform of image surface, skewed field plate is very complicated, and effect is not very desirable.
Summary of the invention
Technical problem: the purpose of this invention is to provide the junction termination structures in the another kind of lateral power, adopt this structure, not only can realize any physical dimension and the arbitrarily preparation of the oblique field plate of the multi-ladder field plate of ladder number and arbitrary shape at sidewall, thereby bring into play the field action that falls of field plate fully, farthest improve breakdown characteristics, can also suppress the body internal electric field simultaneously, the optimal value of drift region concentration is improved, thereby the reduction conducting resistance increases operating current.In addition, this structure fabrication technology only need increase a mask can realize being difficult in the conventional planar field plate multi-ladder field plate of realization and the tiltedly preparation of field plate, the basic compatibility fully of its technology and standard CMOS process, thus reduce manufacturing cost.
