Description
本申请要求在2020年7月13日提交中国专利局、申请号为202010671084.7的中国专利申请的优先权,该申请的全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。This application claims the priority of the Chinese Patent Application No. 202010671084.7 filed with the China Patent Office on July 13, 2020, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
本申请属于半导体功率器件技术领域,例如一种半导体功率器件及其制造方法。The present application belongs to the technical field of semiconductor power devices, such as a semiconductor power device and a manufacturing method thereof.
半导体功率器件的设计中,元胞区的设计决定器件的电阻、电容以及击穿电压等特性,但它受限于终端区保护设计的有效性和面积。好的终端区设计中,为保证器件可靠性,电压击穿点应落在元胞区,而不是终端区,同时终端区占用面积会直接影响元胞区的导通电阻。相关技术中的半导体功率器件为了降低特征导通电阻,需要提高n型外延层的掺杂浓度,这使得终端区在横向上难以耗尽,导致终端区耐压低于元胞区耐压,从而影响了半导体功率器件的耐压。In the design of semiconductor power devices, the design of the cell region determines the resistance, capacitance and breakdown voltage of the device, but it is limited by the effectiveness and area of the termination region protection design. In a good terminal area design, in order to ensure the reliability of the device, the voltage breakdown point should be located in the cell area, not the terminal area, and the area occupied by the terminal area will directly affect the on-resistance of the cell area. In order to reduce the characteristic on-resistance of semiconductor power devices in the related art, it is necessary to increase the doping concentration of the n-type epitaxial layer, which makes it difficult for the terminal region to be depleted in the lateral direction, resulting in the withstand voltage of the terminal region being lower than that of the cell region, so It affects the withstand voltage of semiconductor power devices.
