摘要:
A technique for improving a ruggedness of a transistor against breakdown is provided. In a transistor of the present invention, a height of filling regions is higher than that of buried regions, so that a withstanding voltage of the filling regions is higher than that of the buried regions. Therefore, since avalanche breakdown occurs in an active region, causing an avalanche breakdown current to flow through the active region having a large area, current concentration does not occur. As a result, a ruggedness of an element against breakdown is increased.

A semiconductor device having high withstand voltage is provided. An active groove 22a includes a long and narrow main groove part 26 and a sub groove part 27 connected to a longitudinal side surface of the main groove part, and a buried region 24 of a second conductivity type whose height is lower than the bottom surface of the base diffusion region 32a of the second conductivity type is provided on the bottom surface of the main groove part 26. An active groove filling region 25 of the second conductivity type in contact with the base diffusion region 32a is provided in the sub groove part 27. The buried region 24 is contacted to the base diffusion region 32a through the active groove filling region 25. Since one gate groove 83 is formed by the part above the buried region 24 in one active groove 22a, the gate electrode plugs 48 are not separated, which allows the electrode pattern to be simplified.

A semiconductor device having grooves uniformly filled with semiconductor fillers is provided. Both ends of each of narrow active grooves are connected to an inner circumferential groove surrounding the active grooves. The growth speed of semiconductor fillers on both ends of the active grooves becomes equal to that at their central portions. As a result, a semiconductor device having the active grooves filled with the semiconductor fillers at a uniform height is obtained.

An active groove filled region 23a is kept at a portion of an active groove 22a connecting to an embedded region 24 positioned below a gate groove 83. The active groove filled region 23a connects to a source electrode film 58a so as to have the same electric potential as a source region 64. When a reverse bias is applied between a base region 32a and a conductive layer 12, a reverse bias is also applied between the embedded region 24 and the conductive layer 12; and therefore, depletion layers spread out together and a withstanding voltage is increased.

A semiconductor device having guard grooves uniformly filled with a semiconductor filler is provided. The four corners of a rectangular ring-shaped guard groove meet at right angles, and outer and inner auxiliary diffusion regions both rounded are connected to the four corners. Since the guard grooves do not have to be rounded, the plane orientation of a silicon single crystal exposed inside the guard grooves can be all {100}. Therefore, epitaxial growth in the guard grooves is uniformly carried out, and the grooves are filled with guard regions without defects.
