摘要:
A manufacturing method for a semiconductor device, which can attain a low ion voltage in a manufacturing method for a semiconductor device involving a process for forming a groove by etching prior to selective oxidation, selectively oxidizing a region including the groove and thereby making a channel part of the groove, is disclosed. A groove part is thermally oxidized by using a silicon nitride film as a mask. A LOCOS oxide film is formed by this thermal oxidation, and concurrently a U-groove is formed on the surface of an n.sup.- -type epitaxial layer eroded by the LOCOS oxide film, and the shape of the U-groove is fixed. A curve part formed during a chemical dry etching process remains as a curve part on the side surface of the U-groove. Then, an n.sup.+ -type source layer is formed by means of thermal diffusion to a junction thickness of 0.5 to 1 .mu.m, and a channel is set up as well. The junction depth obtained by this thermal diffusion is set up more deeply than the curve part which is formed during the above etching and remains on the side surface of the U-groove after the above selective thermal oxidation.

A manufacturing method of a vertical DMOSFET having a concave channel structure, which does not permit the introduction of defects or contaminant into the channel part and which can make the shape of the groove uniform, is disclosed. On a surface of a (100)-oriented n.sup.- -on-n.sup.+ epitaxial wafer is formed an initial groove by chemical dry etching. The grooved surface is then oxidized by LOCOS technique to form a LOCOS oxide film, whereby the concave structure is formed on the epitaxial wafer. The concave width is set to be at least twice the concave depth, and the sidewall angle is set to be approximately 50.degree. to make the sidewall plane (111) of high channel mobility plane. Following this process, p-type and n-type impurities are diffused from the main surface using the LOCOS oxide film as a double diffusion mask to form a body region and a source region.

A vertical type power MOSFET remarkably reduces its ON-resistance per area. A substantial groove formation in which a gate structure is constituted is performed beforehand utilizing the LOCOS method before the formation of a p-type base layer and an n.sup.+ -type source layer. The p-type base layer and the n.sup.+ -type source layer are then formed by double diffusion in a manner of self-alignment with respect to a LOCOS oxide film, simultaneously with which channels are set at sidewall portions of the LOCOS oxide film. Thereafter the LOCOS oxide film is removed to provide a U-groove so as to constitute the gate structure. Namely, the channels are set by the double diffusion of the manner of self-alignment with respect to the LOCOS oxide film, so that the channels, which are set at the sidewall portions at both sides of the groove, provide a structure of exact bilateral symmetry, there is no positional deviation of the U-groove with respect to the base layer end, and the length of the bottom face of the U-groove can be made minimally short. Therefore, the unit cell size is greatly reduced, and the ON-resistance per area is greatly decreased.

A manufacturing method of a MOSFET having a channel part on the side surface of a groove, which does not permit the introduction of defects or contaminant into the channel part and which can make the shape of the groove uniform. An n.sup.- -type epitaxial layer having a low impurity concentration is formed on a main surface of an n.sup.+ -type semiconductor substrate. This surface is specified as a main surface, and chemical dry etching is applied to a specified region of this main surface. A region including a surface generated by the chemical dry etching is selectively oxidized to form a selective oxide film to a specified thickness. Following this process, p-type and n-type impurities are doubly diffused from the main surface to define the length of the channel and form a base layer and a source layer. Furthermore, the n.sup.+ -type semiconductor substrate is specified as a drain layer. After the double diffusion, a gate electrode is formed through a gate oxide film and a source electrode and a drain electrode are formed.

A vertical power MOSFET, which can improve a surge withstand voltage and a surge withstand voltage against a surge voltage from an inductance load L. The vertical power MOSFET has a plurality of unit cells. The unit cell is formed from a MOSFET that uses a p-type base layer at a sidewall of a rectangular U-groove as a channel portion. Each of the p-type base layer of each unit cell is connected each others Accordingly, it can restrain an impurity concentration of a corner portion (a portion positioned at a corner) of the rectangular p-type base layer from being decreased. Therefore, it can reduce the difference in distance from the end portion of the p-type base layer to the end portion of the depletion layer. As a result, it can improve the surge withstand voltage when a surge voltage is input from an inductance load L.
