摘要:
Methods of manufacturing power semiconductor devices include forming trenches in a substrate, depositing a shield oxide layer that conforms to the trenches, depositing a gate polysilicon layer into the trenches, etching the gate polysilicon layer so that the gate polysilicon layer is recessed in the trench, etching the shield oxide layer so that the shield oxide layer is recessed in the trench and lower than the gate polysilicon layer, depositing a layer of gate oxide across the top of the substrate, sidewalls of the trenches and troughs inside the trenches leaving a recess, depositing shield polysilicon in the recess, etching the shield polysilicon layer so that the shield polysilicon layer is recessed in the trench and higher than the gate polysilicon layer, forming a well region, and forming a source region. The well region can be formed with a −p-well implant. The source region can be performed with an n+ source implant.

A method for forming a field effect transistor includes forming a trench in a semiconductor region and forming a dielectric layer lining lower sidewalls and bottom surface of the trench. After forming the dielectric layer, a lower portion of the trench is filled with a shield electrode. An inter-electrode dielectric (IED) is formed in the trench over the shield electrode by carrying out a steam ambient oxidation and carrying out a dry ambient oxidation. A gate electrode is formed in an upper portion of the trench. The gate electrode may be insulated from the shield electrode by the IED.

A method and device for protecting wide bandgap devices from failing during suppression of voltage transients. An improvement in avalanche capability is achieved by placing one or more diodes, or a PNP transistor, across the blocking junction of the wide bandgap device.

A trench is formed in a semiconductor region. A dielectric layer lining sidewalls and bottom surface of the trench is formed. The dielectric layer is thicker along lower sidewalls and the bottom surface than along upper sidewalls of the trench. After forming the dielectric layer, a lower portion of the trench is filled with a shield electrode. Dielectric spacers are formed along the upper trench sidewalls. After forming the dielectric spacers, an inter-electrode dielectric (IED) is formed in the trench over the shield electrode. After forming the IED, the dielectric spacers are removed.

An integrated circuit die includes an active area having source dopants and contacts. An active area metal layer overlies the active area. A sense area is disposed on the die. A sense area metal layer overlies the sense area. A plurality of polysilicon gate stripes, polysilicon openings, and body stripes are disposed on the die, and extend in a continuous and uninterrupted manner from the active area into the sense area. A first region from which source dopants and contacts have been excluded surrounds a periphery of the sense area. An etched region is disposed over the first region, thereby separating and electrically isolating the sense area metal layer from the active area metal layer.
