功率VDMOS器件ESD防护结构设计研究

随着半导体工艺的不断发展,器件的特征尺寸在不断缩小,栅氧化层也越来越薄,使得器件受到静电放电破坏的概率大大增加。为此,设计了一种用于保护功率器件栅氧化层的多晶硅背靠背齐纳二极管ESD防护结构。多晶硅背靠背齐纳二极管通过在栅氧化层上的多晶硅中不同区域进行不同掺杂实现。该结构与现有功率VDMOS制造工艺完全兼容,具有很强的鲁棒性。由于多晶硅与体硅分开,消除了衬底耦合噪声和寄生效应等,从而有效减小了漏电流。经流片测试验证,该ESD防护结构的HBM防护级别达8 kV以上。     

VDMOS准饱和特性数学模型研究

A new shallow trench and planar gate MOSFET structure based on VDMOS technology

This paper proposes a new shallow trench and planar gate MOSFET(TPMOS) structure based on VDMOS technology,in which the shallow trench is located at the center of the n~- drift region between the cells under a planar polysilicon gate.Compared with the conventional VDMOS,the proposed TPMOS device not only improves obviously the trade-off relation between on-resistance and breakdown voltage,and reduces the dependence of on-resistance and breakdown voltage on gate length,but also the manufacture process is compatible with that of the VDMOS without a shallow trench,thus the proposed TPMOS can offer more freedom in device design and fabrication.

Polysilicon quantization effects on the electrical properties of MOS transistors

The quantum-mechanical behavior of charge carriers at the polysilicon/oxide interface is investigated. It is shown that a dark space depleted of free carriers is created at the interface as a consequence of the abrupt potential energy barrier, which dominates the polysilicon capacitance and voltage drop in all regions of operation of modern MOS devices. Quantum-mechanical effects in polysilicon lead to a reduction in the gate capacitance in the same way as substrate quantization, and to a negative voltage shift, which is opposed to the positive shift caused by carrier quantization in the channel. Effects on the extraction of device physical parameters such as oxide thickness and polysilicon doping are also addressed.     

High-voltage accumulation-layer UMOSFET's in 4H-SiC

A novel silicon carbide UMOSFET structure is reported. This device incorporates two new features: a self-aligned p-type implantation in the bottom of the trench that reduces the electric field in the trench oxide, and an n-type epilayer under the p-base to promote lateral current spreading into the drift region. This UMOS structure is capable of supporting the full blocking voltage of the pn junction while keeping the electric field in the gate oxide below 4 MV/cm. An accumulation channel is formed on the sidewalls of the trench by epigrowth, and the gate oxide is produced by a polysilicon oxidation process, resulting in a uniform oxide thickness over both the sidewalls and bottom of the trench. The fabricated 4H-SiC devices have a blocking voltage of 1400 V (10 μm drift region), a specific on-resistance of 15.7 mΩ-cm ² at room temperature, and a gate oxide field of 3 MV/cm

Determination of the spatial variation of interface trapped charge using short-channel MOSFET's

Previous measurements of interface trapped charge (ITC) by charge pumping used long-channel metal gate transistors. In this paper charge pumping is extended to short-channel Self-aligned polysilicon gate transistors and used to determine the spatial variation of ITC on wafers. Only the MOSFET gate area and a pulse frequency are required to calculate ITC density from the charge pumping current. In previous work, with long-channel devices, it appears that some investigators used the design dimension of metal gate devices and others used the metallurgical channel length of the transistors to calculate gate area. Two-dimensional simulation of the charge pumping measurement showed that, for a sufficient applied pulse height voltage, the correct area is obtained if the polysilicon gate length and width asmeasured are used. When the process-induced variation of the polysilicon gate length is included in the measurement analysis, no systematic variation of ITC is observed across 5 cm wafers. The charge pumping measurement technique on short-channel MOSFET's can be used to resolve the spatial variation of ITC if the area variations are correctly handled. The measurement of ITC is linear with frequency from 1 kHz to 1 MHz, indicating that the emission time constant of the fast states measured using this method is ≤10^-6s. A variation of ITC with channel lengths is also observed. This variation could not be detected using large area devices such as capacitors, but will have important consequences for short-channel MOSFET's.     

Analytical models for n+-p+ double-gate SOIMOSFET's

Previously, we proposed n⁺-p⁺ double-gate SOI MOSFET's, which have n⁺ polysilicon for the back gate and p⁺ polysilicon for the front gate to enable adjustment of the threshold voltage, and demonstrated high speed operation. In this paper, we establish analytical models for this device, This transistor has two threshold voltages related to n⁺ and p⁺ polysilicon gates: V_th1 and V_th2, respectively. V _th1 is a function of the gate oxide thickness t_Ox and SOI thickness t_Si and is about 0.25 V when t_Ox/t_Si=5, while V_th2 is insensitive to t_Ox and t_Si and is about 1 V. We also derive models for conduction charge and drain current and verified their validity by numerical analysis. Furthermore, we establish a scaling theory unique to the device, and show how to design the device parameters with decreasing gate length. We show numerically that we can design sub 0.1 μm gate length devices with an an appropriate threshold voltage and an ideal subthreshold swing
