摘要:
In a reverse conducting IGBT, diode cathode regions are formed dispersedly on the back side of a device chip. When the distribution density of the diode cathode region becomes low, VF of a fly-back diode, that is, a forward voltage drop becomes large. On the other hand, when the distribution density of the diode cathode region becomes high, it becomes hard for a PN junction at a collector part to turn ON and a snap back occurs. In contrast to this, there is a method of providing about one to several diode cathode absent regions having a macro area, however, the arrangement of the regions itself directly affects the device characteristics, and therefore, it is difficult to control the device characteristics and variations thereof.In the present invention, dot-shaped diode cathode regions on the back side of the device chip are distributed into the shape of a substantially uniform XY lattice and at the same time, the lattice constant in a Y direction is made longer than that in an X direction in parallel with a linear gate electrode in a reverse conducting IGBT having a large number of the linear gate electrodes.

Described is a method for fabricating a semiconductor device having an FET of a trench-gate structure obtained by disposing a conductive layer, which will be a gate, in a trench extended in the main surface of a semiconductor substrate, wherein the upper surface of the trench-gate conductive layer is formed equal to or higher than the main surface of the semiconductor substrate. In addition, the conductive layer of the trench gate is formed to have a substantially flat or concave upper surface and the upper surface is formed equal to or higher than the main surface of the semiconductor substrate. Moreover, after etching of the semiconductor substrate to form the upper surface of the conductive layer of the trench gate equal to or higher than the main surface of the semiconductor substrate, a channel region and a source region are formed by ion implantation. The semiconductor device thus fabricated according to the present invention is free from occurrence of a source offset.

Provided is a technique of improving the properties of a bipolar transistor. Described specifically, upon formation of a collector electrode around a base mesa by the lift-off method, a resist film is formed over connection portions between the outer periphery of a region OA1 and a region in which the base mesa 4a is formed, followed by successive formation of gold germanium (AuGe), nickel (Ni) and Au in the order of mention over the entire surface of a substrate so that the stacked film of them will not become an isolated pattern. As a result, the stacked film over the base mesa 4a is connected to a stacked film at the outer periphery of the region OA1, facilitating peeling of the stacked film over the base mesa 4a. In addition, generation of side etching upon formation of a via hole extending from the back side of the substrate to a backside via electrode is reduced by forming the backside via electrode using a material such as WSi which hardly reacts with an n type GaAs layer or n type InGaAs layer.

Described is a method for fabricating a semiconductor device having an FET of a trench-gate structure obtained by disposing a conductive layer, which will be a gate, in a trench extended in the main surface of a semiconductor substrate, wherein the upper surface of the trench-gate conductive layer is formed higher than the main surface of the semiconductor substrate and the trench gate conductive layer and gate insulating film are formed in the trench and over the main surface of the semiconductor substrate at the periphery of the trench. In this method, a trench wherein a trench-gate is to be formed is formed on the main surface of the semiconductor substrate with the insulating film formed thereon with a mask; and the side surface of the insulating film is caused to retreat from the upper end of the trench by isotropic etching, whereby a gate insulating film and a conductive layer to be the trench gate are formed in the trench and over the main surface of the semiconductor substrate at the periphery of the trench. According to the present invention, occurrence of a source offset and damage of a gate insulating film can be prevented.

The present invention achieves the enhancement of a manufacturing yield factor and the reduction of manufacturing cost in a manufacturing method of a semiconductor device having a hetero junction bipolar transistor (HBT), a Schottky diode and a resistance element. The present invention is directed to the manufacturing method of a semiconductor device in which respective semiconductor layers which become a sub collector layer, a collector layer, a base layer, a wide gap emitter layer and an emitter layer are sequentially formed over one surface of a semiconductor substrate and, thereafter, respective semiconductor layers are processed to form the hetero junction bipolar transistor, the Schottky diode and the resistance element in a monolithic manner. An emitter electrode of the hetero junction bipolar transistor, a Schottky electrode of the Schottky diode and a resistance film of the resistance element are simultaneously formed using a same material (for example, WSiN). Accordingly, the man-hours can be reduced and the manufacturing cost of the semiconductor device can be reduced.
