When the control gate electrode is zero-biased, the inversion layer channel does not exist in the second conduction type lightly doped region, and the conduction path of the multi-sub-hole is pinched off.

At this time, due to the introduction of the resistance region, when the semiconductor longitudinal device is reverse voltage-resistant, the internal potential between the second conductivity type heavily doped region and the first conductivity type heavily doped region is reduced along with the temperature rise, so that the depletion region generated by the PN junction formed between the second conductivity type heavily doped region and the first conductivity type heavily doped region is reduced, the resistance control gate can be connected with zero potential, positive potential or negative potential to adjust the width of the depletion region in the resistance region, accurately control the resistance value of the resistance region (reduce the resistance value of the resistance region as much as possible), further control the compensation degree of the resistance region on the punch-through voltage temperature coefficient of the SGT-MOSFET, finally make the punch-through voltage temperature coefficient of the semiconductor longitudinal device extremely small, even if the semiconductor longitudinal device does not need to build an external circuit to reduce the temperature coefficient of the punch-through breakdown voltage, the punch-through breakdown voltage is basically unchanged along with the temperature change, so that the structure of the semiconductor longitudinal device is simplified, and the overall power consumption of the device during working is reduced. Therefore, the temperature coefficient of the punch-through breakdown voltage of the conventional power semiconductor longitudinal device can be effectively reduced on the basis of the SGT-MOSFET structure, so that the reliability of the power semiconductor longitudinal device such as the SGT-MOSFET in application is improved, the structure is simple, and the overall power consumption of the device during working is low.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application are clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application. The following embodiments and their technical features may be combined with each other without conflict.
A power Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (MOSFET) is a multi-sub conductive device, and has the advantages of high switching speed, high input impedance, easy driving, and the like. To further improve the performance of power MOSFETs, SGT structures are proposed. Compared with a traditional Trench Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (Trench-MOSFET) device, the SGT-MOSFET device has a deeper Trench, the overlapping area of the capacitor between the grid and the drain is greatly reduced through a special Field plate structure, the grid leakage capacitor is reduced, the device has lower grid charges, the switching speed of the working power MOSFET can be increased, the switching loss is reduced, and the concept of building a resource-saving and environment-friendly society in the current era is met.
Power semiconductor vertical devices such as SGT-MOSFETs, which operate in a severe temperature environment, have a large temperature-dependent punch-through breakdown voltage, have a large positive temperature coefficient (i.e. the temperature of the punch-through breakdown voltage of the device gradually increases with increasing current), resulting in temperature-dependent instability of the device, which will seriously affect the reliability of these power semiconductor vertical devices, and at the same time, because the temperature coefficient of the punch-through breakdown voltage of the power semiconductor vertical device is mainly determined by the material characteristics of the device and is difficult to improve in a simple manner, this will make the device face a severe reliability challenge.
The breakdown characteristics of punch-through breakdown make the breakdown voltage temperature coefficient of punch-through breakdown devices more easily compensated than avalanche breakdown. The above problems are solved if a structure can be introduced into such a device such that the temperature coefficient of the punch-through breakdown voltage of the device is very small and the punch-through breakdown voltage is substantially constant with temperature.
Based on this, in one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the present embodiment provides a semiconductor vertical device 100, the semiconductor vertical device 100 including a first conductivity type substrate 110, a device main body portion 120, a metalized drain 130, a metalized source 140, a control gate electrode 150, a shield gate electrode 160, and a resistance control gate 170. The bottom of the device body 120 is sequentially covered with the first conductive type substrate 110 and the metalized drain 130, and the top of the device body 120 is covered with the metalized source 140. The device body 120 is sequentially divided into a first conductive type heavily doped region 121, a second conductive type lightly doped region 122 and a first conductive type drift region 123 from top to bottom, and a deep trench (not shown) is recessed at the top end of the device body 121 to separately place the control gate electrode 150 and the shield gate electrode 160 in an insulating manner. A notch (not shown) is formed in a region on one side of the top layer of the first-conductivity-type heavily doped region 121, the notch is filled with the second-conductivity-type heavily doped region 124, a shallow trench (not shown) is concavely formed in a region on the other side of the top layer of the first-conductivity-type heavily doped region 121, the second-conductivity-type heavily doped region 124 is tightly attached to the deep trench, the shallow trench is located in a region on the outer side of the top layer of the first-conductivity-type heavily doped region 121, a preset distance is formed between the shallow trench and the second-conductivity-type heavily doped region 124 to form a resistor region (not shown) therebetween, and a resistor control gate 170 for controlling the characteristics of the resistor region is placed in the shallow trench in an insulating manner.
It should be noted that the semiconductor vertical device 100 in this embodiment may be a P-channel SGT-MOSFET device, and may also be an N-channel SGT-MOSFET device. When the semiconductor vertical device 100 is a P-channel SGT-MOSFET device, the first conductivity type mentioned above is P-type, and the second conductivity type is N-type. When the semiconductor vertical device 100 is an N-channel SGT-MOSFET device, the first conductivity type mentioned above is N-type, and the second conductivity type is P-type.
In some examples, the above-mentioned first conductive type substrate 110 is preferably a heavily doped first conductive type substrate, and the above-mentioned first conductive type drift region 123 is preferably a lightly doped first conductive type drift region.
The operation principle of the SGT-MOSFET device with P-channel, in which the semiconductor vertical device 100 is a P-channel, will be described in detail below by taking the SGT-MOSFET device with P-channel as an example. At this time, the first conductive type substrate 110 is a P + substrate, the first conductive type heavily doped region 121 is a P + doped region, the second conductive type lightly doped region 122 is an N-doped region, the first conductive type drift region 123 is a P-drift region, and the second conductive type heavily doped region 124 is an N + doped region. The doping concentration of the P-drift region in this embodiment is preferably 7.5 × 1015cm-3The doping concentration of the N-doped region is preferably 2.56X 1016cm-3The doping concentration of the P + doped region is preferably 6.8 × 1017cm-3The doping concentration of the N + doping region is preferably 6X 1019cm-3。
When the semiconductor vertical device 100 is conducted in the forward direction, the electrode connection mode is as follows: the control gate electrode 150 and the resistance control gate 170 are connected to the same negative potential, the metalized drain 130 is connected to the negative potential, and the metalized source 140 and the shield gate electrode 160 are connected to zero potential. At this time, when the negative voltage applied on the control gate electrode 150 reaches the threshold voltage of the device, an inversion layer channel is formed in the N-doped region (i.e., the second conductive type lightly doped region 122) on the side close to the deep trench, a multi-sub hole accumulation layer is formed in the P + doped region (i.e., the first conductive type heavily doped region 121) on the side close to the deep trench, and under the reverse bias of the metalized drain 130, holes are used as carriers to inject the P-drift region (i.e., the first conductive type drift region 123) from the P + doped region (i.e., the first conductive type heavily doped region 121) through the inversion layer channel in the N-doped region (i.e., the second conductive type lightly doped region 122) and reach the metalized drain 130 to form a forward current, so that the semiconductor vertical device 100 is turned on. At this time, the resistance control gate 170 is connected to the same negative potential as the control gate electrode 150, so that an accumulation layer can be formed in the resistance region, thereby effectively reducing the resistance of the resistance region.
When the semiconductor vertical device 100 is reversely blocked, the electrode connection mode is as follows: the resistive control gate 170 is connected to a positive potential, the control gate electrode 150, the shield gate electrode 160, and the metalized source 160 are shorted and connected to a zero potential, and the metalized drain 130 is connected to a negative potential, depending on the application. At this time, since there is no inversion layer channel in the N-doped region (i.e., the second conductive type lightly doped region 122) when the control gate electrode 150 is zero-biased, the conduction path of the majority hole is pinched off. When the reverse voltage on the metalized drain 130 is increased, the depletion layer boundary will expand towards both sides of the P-drift region (i.e., the drift region 123 of the first conductivity type) and the N-doped region (i.e., the lightly doped region 122 of the second conductivity type) to withstand the reverse voltage, until the punch-through breakdown of the device occurs when the boundary of the depletion region in the N-doped region (i.e., the lightly doped region 122 of the second conductivity type) reaches the vicinity of the interface between the N-doped region (i.e., the lightly doped region 122 of the second conductivity type) and the P + doped region (i.e., the heavily doped region 121 of the first conductivity type). At this time, due to the introduction of the resistance region, when the semiconductor longitudinal device 100 is reverse voltage-resistant, the internal potential between the N + doped region (i.e., the second conductivity type heavily doped region 124) and the P + doped region (i.e., the first conductivity type heavily doped region 121) decreases with the increase of temperature, so that the depletion region generated by the PN junction formed between the N + doped region (i.e., the second conductivity type heavily doped region 124) and the P + doped region (i.e., the first conductivity type heavily doped region 121) decreases, the resistance control gate can be connected to a zero potential, a positive potential or a negative potential to adjust the width of the depletion region in the resistance region, precisely control the resistance value of the resistance region (so that the resistance value of the resistance region decreases as much as possible), further control the compensation degree of the resistance region for the punch-through voltage temperature coefficient of the SGT-MOSFET, and finally make the punch-through voltage temperature coefficient of the semiconductor longitudinal device 100 extremely small, namely, the temperature coefficient of the punch-through breakdown voltage of the semiconductor longitudinal device 100 can be reduced without building an external circuit, the punch-through breakdown voltage is basically unchanged along with the temperature change, the structure of the semiconductor longitudinal device 100 is simplified, and the overall power consumption of the device during working is reduced.
Under the withstand voltage of about-60V, the temperature coefficient of the punch-through breakdown voltage of the traditional SGT-MOSFET device is about 35mV/K, the temperatures of 300K, 350K and 400K are respectively selected, and the curves of the punch-through breakdown voltage along with the temperature change are respectively shown in FIG. 2. Meanwhile, the semiconductor vertical device 100 of the present embodiment is optimized based on an SGT-MOSFET device (the cell width is preferably 3.4 μm, the width of the deep trench is preferably 1 μm, the depth of the deep trench is preferably 2.8 μm, the width of the shallow trench is preferably 0.3 μm, the depth of the shallow trench is preferably 0.25 μm, the dielectric filled in the trench is silicon dioxide, the width of the resistive region is preferably 0.03 μm, the semiconductor used is monocrystalline silicon, when the reverse voltage resistance is achieved, the metalized source 140 is connected to zero potential, the control gate electrode 150 is connected to zero potential, and the resistive control gate 170 is connected to-0.5V), the temperatures of 300K, 350K and 400K are also selected respectively, the curves of the punch-through breakdown voltage along with the temperature change are respectively shown in fig. 3, and the temperature coefficient is 4 mV/K. It can be seen that the present semiconductor vertical device 100 can effectively reduce the temperature coefficient of the punch-through breakdown voltage of the existing power semiconductor vertical device such as SGT-MOSFET.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, the semiconductor vertical device 100 provided therein can effectively reduce the temperature coefficient of the punch-through breakdown voltage of the conventional power semiconductor vertical device on the basis of the SGT-MOSFET structure, so as to increase the reliability of the power semiconductor vertical device such as the SGT-MOSFET in application, and has a simple structure and lower overall power consumption when the device operates.
In some examples, as shown in fig. 1, the deep trench divides the heavily doped region 121 of the first conductivity type into a heavily doped half region and a heavily doped half region, divides the lightly doped region 122 of the second conductivity type into a lightly doped half region and a lightly doped half region, and forms a U-shaped trench region at the top of the drift region 123 of the first conductivity type sequentially from top to bottom. Meanwhile, a gap is formed in one side region of the top layer of the first heavily doped half region, the second conductive type heavily doped region 124 is filled in the gap, a shallow trench is formed in a concave manner in the other side region of the top layer of the first heavily doped half region, the second conductive type heavily doped region 124 is arranged in a manner of being tightly attached to the deep trench, a preset distance is formed between the shallow trench and the second conductive type heavily doped region 124 so as to form a resistance region between the shallow trench and the second conductive type heavily doped region, and a resistance control grid 170 for controlling the characteristics of the resistance region is arranged in an insulating manner in the shallow trench. Another gap is formed in a region on one side of the top layer of the second heavily doped half region, another second conductive type heavily doped region 124 is filled in the another gap, another shallow trench is formed in a concave manner in the region on the other side of the top layer of the second heavily doped half region, the another second conductive type heavily doped region 124 is arranged in a manner of being tightly attached to the deep trench, a preset distance is formed between the another shallow trench and the another second conductive type heavily doped region 124 so as to form another resistance region therebetween, and another resistance control gate 170 for controlling the characteristics of the another resistance region is placed in the another shallow trench in an insulating manner. By the structural arrangement, the semiconductor vertical device 100 can integrally form a left-right symmetrical structure, and the stability of the semiconductor vertical device is improved.
In some examples, as shown in fig. 1, the shield gate electrode 160 mentioned above is disposed in a U-shaped trench region of the deep trench, and an insulating layer 180 is sandwiched between the shield gate electrode 160 and an inner wall of the U-shaped trench region, so that the shield gate electrode 160 is disposed in the deep trench in an insulated manner. Meanwhile, the control gate electrode 150 is disposed in the deep trench, the control gate electrode 150 is disposed above the shielding gate electrode 160, and insulating layers 180 are respectively interposed between the bottom end of the control gate electrode 150 and the shielding gate electrode 160, between the top end of the control gate electrode 150 and the metalized source 140, and between the sidewall of the control gate electrode 150 and the inner wall of the deep trench, so that the control gate electrode 150 is disposed in the deep trench in an insulating manner. The insulating layer 180 of the present embodiment is specifically an oxide layer, and the oxide layer can perform a good insulating function between the two layers. The oxide layer may be thermally grown from silicon dioxide (SiO 2), silicon oxynitride (SiON), or other materials.
In some examples, as shown in fig. 1, the bottom end of the above-mentioned control gate electrode 150 extends into the U-shaped trench region, so that the bottom vertical depth of the second conductivity type lightly doped region 122 is higher than the bottom vertical depth of the control gate electrode 150, which can ensure that an inversion layer channel communicating between the first conductivity type drift region 123 and the first conductivity type heavily doped region 121 can be formed at the side of the second conductivity type lightly doped region 122 close to the oxide layer 180 when the present semiconductor vertical device 100 is in forward conduction.
In some examples, as shown in fig. 1, the top end of the above-mentioned control gate electrode 150 is preferably higher than the top ends of the second conductive type lightly doped regions 122 at the left and right sides, so that the control gate electrode 150 sequentially covers a portion of the first conductive type heavily doped region 121, a portion of the second conductive type lightly doped region 122 and a portion of the first conductive type drift region 123 in a vertical direction for realizing a control function of the device switch.
In some examples, as shown in fig. 1, an insulating dielectric layer 170 is sandwiched between the resistance control gate 170 and the inner wall of the adjacent shallow trench and the adjacent metalized source 140. The insulating dielectric layer 170 of this embodiment is specifically an oxide layer, and the oxide layer can perform a good insulating and isolating function between the two layers. The oxide layer may be thermally grown from silicon dioxide (SiO 2), silicon oxynitride (SiON), or other materials.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 4, the present embodiment provides a method for manufacturing a semiconductor vertical device, specifically including the steps of:
step S110: a single crystal semiconductor substrate is provided as a first conductivity type substrate, and epitaxial growth is performed on the top side of the semiconductor substrate to form a device body portion.
Specifically, the method for producing the semiconductor vertical device in the present embodiment is mainly used for producing the semiconductor vertical device 100 in the above-described embodiment. As can be seen from the above description, the semiconductor vertical device 100 may be a P-channel SGT-MOSFET device, or may be an N-channel SGT-MOSFET device. When the semiconductor vertical device 100 is a P-channel SGT-MOSFET device, the first conductivity type mentioned above is P-type, and the second conductivity type is N-type. When the semiconductor vertical device 100 is an N-channel SGT-MOSFET device, the first conductivity type mentioned above is N-type, and the second conductivity type is P-type.
It should be noted that the semiconductor in this embodiment may be bulk silicon, or may be a semiconductor material such as silicon carbide, gallium arsenide, or germanium silicon. Each method step of the method for producing a semiconductor vertical device in this embodiment is further described in detail by taking a semiconductor as bulk silicon, and taking a produced semiconductor vertical device as an SGT-MOSFET device with a P-channel as an example.
As shown in fig. 5-1, the single crystal semiconductor substrate provided in the steps of the method may be a heavily doped single crystal silicon substrate with a crystal orientation of <100>, the heavily doped single crystal silicon substrate is a P + substrate 210 (i.e., a heavily doped substrate of a first conductivity type), and at the same time, epitaxial growth is performed on the top side of the heavily doped single crystal silicon substrate, and a device body 220 with a certain thickness and doping concentration may be grown by methods such as vapor phase epitaxy VPE (at this time, all regions of the device body 220 are P-drift regions)
Step S120: and etching the device main body part to form a deep groove inwards at the top end of the device main body part.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5-2, the device main body 220 is etched, a hard mask (e.g., silicon nitride) 20 is deposited on the top end of the device main body 220 to serve as a barrier layer for subsequent trench digging, and a photolithography plate is used to perform deep trench etching, so as to form a deep trench 21 (i.e., a trench gate region) at the top end of the device main body by recessing inward, wherein the specific etching process may use reactive ion etching or plasma etching. After the deep trench 21 is etched, the hard mask 20 is removed.
Step S130: and depositing and etching the polycrystalline semiconductor for multiple times in the deep groove to respectively form a shielding gate electrode and a control gate electrode which are arranged in an insulating way in the deep groove.
Specifically, the polycrystalline semiconductor in the steps of the method may be polysilicon, and multiple depositions and etches of polysilicon are performed in the deep trench 21 to form a shield gate electrode and a control gate electrode, respectively. In order to isolate the shield gate electrode and the control gate electrode in the deep trench 21 from each other and to isolate the shield gate electrode and the control gate electrode from the device main body portion 220, an oxide layer is further formed in the deep trench 21. The oxide layer may be thermally grown from silicon dioxide (SiO 2), silicon oxynitride (SiON), or other materials, and silicon dioxide is preferably used in this embodiment.
Thus, in some examples, as shown in fig. 6, the method step "performing multiple depositions and etches of polycrystalline semiconductor in the deep trench to form the shield gate electrode and the control gate electrode respectively" is performed as follows:
step S131: and carrying out first thermal growth of an oxidation material in the deep trench to form a first oxidation layer in a first preset region on the inner wall of the deep trench.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5-3, after the hard mask 20 is removed, a first thermal growth of an oxide material (specifically, silicon dioxide) is performed in the deep trench 21 to form a first oxide layer 281 (specifically, a silicon dioxide layer) in a first predetermined region on the inner wall of the deep trench 21.
Step S132: and carrying out first deposition and etching of a polycrystalline semiconductor in the deep trench to form a shielding gate electrode, wherein the first oxide layer is clamped between the inner wall of the deep trench and the shielding gate electrode.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5-3, after a first oxide layer 281 is formed in a first predetermined region on an inner wall of the deep trench 21, a first deposition and etching of a polycrystalline semiconductor (specifically, polysilicon) is performed in the deep trench 21 to form a shield gate electrode 260, and the first oxide layer 281 is sandwiched between the inner wall of the deep trench 21 and the shield gate electrode 260, so that the two are isolated and insulated from each other.
Step S133: a first deposition of an oxide material is performed within the deep trench to deposit a second oxide layer of a predetermined thickness on top of the shield gate electrode.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5-4, after forming the shield gate electrode 260 within the deep trench 21, a first deposition of an oxide material (specifically, silicon dioxide) is performed within the deep trench 21 to deposit a second oxide layer 282 (specifically, a silicon dioxide layer) of a predetermined thickness on top of the shield gate electrode 260.
It should be noted that there is no clear boundary between the second oxide layer 282 and the first oxide layer 281 on both sides of the shield gate electrode 260, and if it is hard to distinguish the two, it can also be said that the second oxide layer 282 covers the top side of the first oxide layer 281 on both sides of the shield gate electrode 260.
Step S134: and carrying out second thermal growth of an oxidation material in the deep groove to form a third oxidation layer on the inner wall of the deep groove.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5-5, after depositing a second oxide layer 282 with a predetermined thickness on top of the shield gate electrode 260, a second thermal growth of an oxide material (specifically, silicon dioxide) is performed in the deep trench 21 to form a third oxide layer 283 (specifically, a silicon dioxide layer) on the inner wall of the deep trench 21.
It should be noted that there is also no clear boundary between the third oxide layer 283 and the second oxide layer 282, and the third oxide layer 283 may be thermally grown to diffuse around the opening of the deep trench 21, such that the top side of the device body 220 is also covered with the third oxide layer 283.
Step S135: and carrying out second deposition and etching on the polycrystalline semiconductor in the deep trench to form a control gate electrode, wherein the second oxide layer is clamped between the top end of the shielding gate electrode and the bottom end of the control gate electrode, and the third oxide layer is clamped between the inner wall of the deep trench and the control gate electrode.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5 to 6, after a third oxide layer 283 is formed on the inner wall of the deep trench 21, a second deposition and etching of a polycrystalline semiconductor (specifically, polysilicon) is performed in the deep trench 21 to form a control gate electrode 250, the second oxide layer 282 is sandwiched between the top end of the shield gate electrode 260 and the bottom end of the control gate electrode 250, and the third oxide layer 283 is sandwiched between the inner wall of the deep trench 260 and the control gate electrode 250.
Step S136: and performing second deposition of an oxidation material in the deep trench to deposit a fourth oxidation layer with a preset thickness at the top end of the control gate electrode.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5-6, after the control gate electrode 250 is formed in the deep trench 21, the second deposition of the oxide material (specifically, silicon dioxide) may be directly performed in the deep trench 21, so as to deposit a fourth oxide layer 284 (specifically, a silicon dioxide layer) with a predetermined thickness on the top of the control gate electrode 250. After the next step S140 or the next step 150 is completed, a second deposition of an oxide material (specifically, silicon dioxide) may be performed in the deep trench 21 to deposit a fourth oxide layer 284 (specifically, a silicon dioxide layer) with a predetermined thickness on the top of the control gate electrode 250, which only needs to be ensured that the timing of the method step is before the step S170. After depositing the fourth oxide layer 284 with a predetermined thickness on the top of the control gate electrode 250, the excess oxide layers on both sides need to be etched away, so that the insulating layer 280 is finally formed by the first oxide layer 281, the second oxide layer 282, the third oxide layer 283 and the fourth oxide layer 284 as shown in fig. 4-8.
Step S140: different regions of the main body part of the device are implanted with different ions, so that the main body part of the device is sequentially divided into a first conduction type heavily doped region, a second conduction type lightly doped region and a first conduction type drift region from top to bottom, meanwhile, a gap is arranged in a region on one side of the top layer of the first conduction type heavily doped region, the gap is filled with the second conduction type heavily doped region, and the second conduction type heavily doped region is tightly attached to the deep trench.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5 to 7, different ion implantations are performed on different regions of the device main body portion 220 to form different doped regions, so that the device main body portion 220 is sequentially divided into a first conductive type heavily doped region 221, a second conductive type lightly doped region 222, and a first conductive type drift region 223 from top to bottom, meanwhile, a gap (not shown) is formed in a region on one side of a top layer of the first conductive type heavily doped region 121, the gap is filled with the second conductive type heavily doped region 124, and the second conductive type heavily doped region 124 is disposed close to the deep trench 21, as shown in fig. 7, the specific process is as follows:
step S141: no ion implantation is performed in a lower portion of the device body portion to form a first conductivity type drift region.
Specifically, as can be seen from the above steps of the method, the entire region of the device main body portion 220 of the present embodiment is the P-drift region (i.e., the drift region of the first conductivity type), and the P-drift region is mainly located at the lower portion of the device main body portion 220, so as shown in fig. 4 to 8, it is only necessary to perform no ion implantation at the lower portion of the device main body portion 220 to keep the lower portion of the device main body portion 220 still as the P-drift region (i.e., the drift region of the first conductivity type).
Step S142: and implanting first ions into the middle part of the main body part of the device to form a second conductive type lightly doped region.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5-7, the lightly doped region of the second conductivity type is mainly located in the middle of the device main body 220, so that the implantation of the first ions (specifically, phosphorus ions) in the middle of the device main body 220 can form the N-doped region (i.e., the lightly doped region of the second conductivity type), and the doping concentration of the N-doped region is preferably 2.56 × 1016cm-3。
Step S143: and injecting second ions into the first preset region on the upper part of the device main body part to form a first conduction type heavily doped region.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5 to 7, the heavily doped region of the first conductivity type is mainly located in the upper first predetermined region of the device body 220 (mainly including the whole upper lower layer region and the upper top layer portion region), so that the P + doped region (i.e. the heavily doped region of the first conductivity type) can be formed by implanting second ions (specifically, boron ions) into the upper first predetermined region of the device body 220, and the doping concentration of the P + doped region is preferably 6.8 × 1017cm-3。
Step S144: and injecting third ions into a second preset region on the upper part of the device main body part to form a second conductive type heavily doped region.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5 to 7, the heavily doped region of the second conductivity type is mainly located in the upper second predetermined region (mainly including the upper top layer portion region) of the device body 220, so that the N + doped region (i.e., the heavily doped region of the second conductivity type) can be formed by implanting third ions (specifically, arsenic ions) into the upper second predetermined region of the device body 220, and the doping concentration of the N + doped region is preferably 6 × 1019cm-3。
Step S150: and etching the other side region of the top layer of the first conductive type heavily doped region to form a shallow trench in a concave manner in the other side region of the top layer of the first conductive type heavily doped region, and meanwhile, a preset distance is arranged between the shallow trench and the second conductive type heavily doped region to form a resistor region between the shallow trench and the second conductive type heavily doped region.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5-8, the other side region of the top layer of the first conductive type heavily doped region 221 (mainly the outer side region of the top layer) is etched, a hard mask (e.g., silicon nitride) is deposited on the top end of the first conductive type heavily doped region 221 as a barrier layer for subsequent trench digging, and a photolithography plate is used to perform deep trench etching, so as to form a deep trench 21 (i.e., a trench gate region) at the top end of the device body portion and to form a shallow trench 22 at the other side region of the top layer of the first conductive type heavily doped region 221, and meanwhile, the shallow trench 22 and the second conductive type heavily doped region 224 are spaced apart by a predetermined distance to form a resistor region (specifically, the middle region of the top layer of the first conductive type heavily doped region 221) therebetween. The specific etching process may use reactive ion etching or plasma etching. After the shallow trench 22 is etched, the hard mask is removed.
Step S160: and depositing and etching a polycrystalline semiconductor in the shallow trench to form an insulated resistance control grid for controlling the characteristics of the resistance region in the shallow trench.
Specifically, the polycrystalline semiconductor of the method step may be polysilicon, and the deposition and etching of the polysilicon in the shallow trench 22 may form the resistor control gate. In order to insulate the resistor control gate in the shallow trench 22, an oxide layer is also formed in the shallow trench 22. The oxide layer may be thermally grown from silicon dioxide (SiO 2), silicon oxynitride (SiON), or other materials, and silicon dioxide is preferably used in this embodiment.
Thus, in some examples, as shown in fig. 8, the method steps of "performing deposition and etching of polycrystalline semiconductor in the shallow trench to form an insulatively disposed resistive control gate within the shallow trench to control the characteristics of the resistive region" are performed as follows:
step S161: and carrying out thermal growth of an oxide material in the shallow trench to form a fifth oxide layer on the inner wall of the shallow trench.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5-8, thermal growth of an oxide material (specifically, silicon dioxide) is performed within the shallow trench 22 to form a fifth oxide layer 291 (specifically, a silicon dioxide layer) on the inner wall of the shallow trench 22.
It should be noted that the fifth oxide layer 291 may be thermally grown to diffuse around the opening of the shallow trench 22, such that the top side of the device body 220 is also covered with the fifth oxide layer 291.
Step S162: and depositing and etching a polycrystalline semiconductor in the shallow trench to form a resistance control grid, wherein the fifth oxide layer is clamped between the inner wall of the shallow trench and the resistance control grid.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5-9, after forming a fifth oxide layer 291 on the inner wall of the shallow trench 22, a polycrystalline semiconductor (specifically, polysilicon) is deposited and etched in the shallow trench 22 to form a resistance control gate 270, and the fifth oxide layer 291 is sandwiched between the inner wall of the shallow trench 22 and the resistance control gate 270, so that the fifth oxide layer 291 and the resistance control gate 270 are isolated and insulated from each other.
Step S163: and depositing an oxide material in the shallow trench to deposit a sixth oxide layer with a preset thickness on the top of the resistance control grid.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 5-9, after forming the resistance control gate 270 in the shallow trench 22, the deposition of the oxide material (specifically, silicon dioxide) may be directly continued in the shallow trench 22 to deposit a sixth oxide layer 292 (specifically, a silicon dioxide layer) with a predetermined thickness on top of the resistance control gate 270.
It should be noted that the sixth oxide layer 292 may be thermally grown to diffuse toward the sidewall of the resistance control gate 270, there is no clear boundary between the fifth oxide layer 291 and the sixth oxide layer 292, after the sixth oxide layer 292 with a predetermined thickness is deposited on the top of the control gate 270, the excess oxide layers on both sides need to be etched away, so as to make it as shown in fig. 5-9, at this time, the fifth oxide layer 291 and the sixth oxide layer 292 together form the insulating dielectric layer 290.
Step S170: and carrying out metallization processing on the top end of the device main body part and the bottom end of the single crystal semiconductor substrate so as to form a metalized source electrode on the top end of the device main body part and a metalized drain electrode on the bottom end of the single crystal semiconductor substrate, thus obtaining the semiconductor vertical device.
