摘要:
A semiconductor component resistant to the formation of a parasitic bipolar transistor and a method for manufacturing the semiconductor component using a reduced number of masking steps. A semiconductor material of N-type conductivity having a region of P-type conductivity is provided. A doped region of N-type conductivity is formed in the region of P-type conductivity. Trenches are formed in a semiconductor material and extend through the regions of N-type and P-type conductivities. A field oxide is formed from the semiconductor material such that portions of the trenches extend under the field oxide. The field oxide serves as an implant mask in the formation of source regions. Body contact regions are formed from the semiconductor material and an electrical conductor is formed in contact with the source and body regions. An electrical conductor is formed in contact with the backside of the semiconductor material.

A MOSFET device (50) has a trench (60) extending from a major surface (56) of the device (50). Within the trench (60), a gate structure (62) is formed where the top surface (64) is below the major surface (56). Source regions (66, 68) are formed along a vertical wall (84) inside of the trench (60). The source regions (66, 68) have a horizontal component along the major surface (56) and a vertical component extending the vertical wall (84). The majority of the source regions (66, 68) are formed along the vertical wall (84) within the trench (60). A typical aspect ratio of the vertical length of the source regions (66, 68) to the horizontal width is greater than 3:1. An Inter-layer dielectric (ILD) layer (74) is formed on the gate structure (62) within the trench (60) below the major surface (56). A metal electrode layer (82) is formed above the major surface (56) where a portion is formed inside the trench (60) making source contact to the source regions (66, 68) inside the trench (60) along the vertical wall (84) of the trench (60).

A trench power switching transistor (10) is fabricated having sub-micron features on a body layer (26) without using sub-micron lithography. An opening in a field oxide layer (28) defines an area for implanting a source region (30) in the body layer (26) that is self-aligned to a first edge (28A) and a second edge (28B) of the field oxide layer (28). Sidewall spacers (32) are formed in accordance with the first and second edges (28A and 28B) of the field oxide layer (28). A trench is aligned to the sidewall spacers (32) and formed centered within the source region (30). An implant layer (42) formed between sections of the power switching transistor (10) is aligned to the sidewall spacers (32) at the first and second edges (28A and 28B).

In one embodiment, a vertical insulated-gate field effect transistor includes a shield electrode formed in trench structure within a semiconductor material. A gate electrode is isolated from the semiconductor material using gate insulating layers. Before the shield electrode is formed, spacer layers can be used form shield insulating layers along portions of the trench structure. The shield insulating layers are thicker than the gate insulating layers. In another embodiment, the shield insulating layers have variable thickness.
