摘要: Proton irradiation is performed a plurality of times from rear surface of an n-type semiconductor substrate, which is an n− drift layer, forming an n-type FS layer having lower resistance than the n-type semiconductor substrate in the rear surface of the n− drift layer. When the proton irradiation is performed a plurality of times, the next proton irradiation is performed to as to compensate for a reduction in mobility due to disorder which remains after the previous proton irradiation. In this case, the second or subsequent proton irradiation is performed at the position of the disorder which is formed by the previous proton irradiation. In this way, even after proton irradiation and a heat treatment, the disorder is reduced and it is possible to prevent deterioration of characteristics, such as increase in leakage current. It is possible to form an n-type FS layer including a high-concentration hydrogen-related donor layer.

摘要: Hydrogen atoms and crystal defects are introduced into an n− semiconductor substrate by proton implantation. The crystal defects are generated in the n− semiconductor substrate by electron beam irradiation before or after the proton implantation. Then, a heat treatment for generating donors is performed. The amount of crystal defects is appropriately controlled during the heat treatment for generating donors to increase a donor generation rate. In addition, when the heat treatment for generating donors ends, the crystal defects formed by the electron beam irradiation and the proton implantation are recovered and controlled to an appropriate amount of crystal defects. Therefore, for example, it is possible to improve a breakdown voltage and reduce a leakage current.

摘要: A p+ collector layer is provided in a rear surface of a semiconductor substrate which will be an n− drift layer and an n+ field stop layer is provided in a region which is deeper than the p+ collector layer formed on the rear surface side. A front surface element structure is formed on the front surface of the semiconductor substrate and then protons are radiated to the rear surface of the semiconductor substrate at an acceleration voltage corresponding to the depth at which the n+ field stop layer is formed. A first annealing process is performed at an annealing temperature corresponding to the proton irradiation to change the protons into donors, thereby forming a field stop layer. Then, annealing is performed using annealing conditions suitable for the conditions of a plurality of proton irradiation processes to recover each crystal defect formed by each proton irradiation process.

摘要: In some aspects of the invention, an n-type field-stop layer can have a total impurity of such an extent that a depletion layer spreading in response to an application of a rated voltage stops inside the n-type field-stop layer together with the total impurity of an n− type drift layer. Also, the n-type field-stop layer can have a concentration gradient such that the impurity concentration of the n-type field-stop layer decreases from a p+ type collector layer toward a p-type base layer, and the diffusion depth is 20 μm or more. Furthermore, an n+ type buffer layer of which the peak impurity concentration can be higher than that of the n-type field-stop layer at 6×1015 cm−3 or more, and one-tenth or less of the peak impurity concentration of the p+ type collector layer, can be included between the n-type field-stop layer and p+ type collector layer.

摘要: A method of manufacturing a silicon carbide semiconductor device. The method includes providing an n-type semiconductor substrate having first and second principal surfaces, introducing an impurity from a first principal surface of the semiconductor substrate at a first position, activating the impurity to form a diffusion layer in the semiconductor substrate at a second position, implanting protons at a third position that is deeper from the first principal surface than the first position, the protons generating crystal defects in a region through which the protons pass, converting by thermal treating the protons into hydrogen induced donors to form an n-type field stop layer at a fourth position deeper from the first principal surface than the second position, reducing by the thermal treating the generated crystal defects to form an n-type crystal defect reduction region, and forming an electrode on the second principal surface after implanting the protons.
