Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a high voltage MOSFET device, and more particularly to a high voltage MOSFET device with an enhanced breakdown voltage.
- Conventionally, a high voltage metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (HV MOSFET) device has a circular configuration. From the top view of the circular HV MOSFET device, the central portion is the drain region, and the outer portion enclosing the drain region is the source region. In addition, the width of the channel region of the circular HV MOSFET device is determined according to the circumference of the intermediate zone between the drain region and the source region. A conventional approach of increasing the conduction current of the HV MOSFET device is to increase the radius of the HV MOSFET device. However, the increase of the radius of the HV MOSFET device will increase the area of the HV MOSFET device.
- For increasing the conduction current of the HV MOSFET device while minimizing the area of the HV MOSFET device, a race-track HV MOSFET device and an M-type HV MOSFET device have been disclosed. By contrast, the use of the M-type HV MOSFET device can achieve a higher conduction current.
- By the conventional manufacturing processes, the breakdown voltage (BDV) of the M-type HV MOSFET device is lower than each of the breakdown voltage of the circular HV MOSFET device and the breakdown voltage of the race-track HV MOSFET device. For simultaneously forming the three types of HV MOSFET devices on the same integrated circuit, the voltage-withstanding capability of the overall integrated circuit is deteriorated because of the limitation of the breakdown voltage of the M-type HV MOSFET device.
- The present inventors found that the conventional M-type HV MOSFET device has so many round corners. Due to the round corners, the M-type HV MOSFET device has higher electric field and higher electric current in some specified sites. Under this circumstance, the voltage-withstanding capability of these specified sites will be impaired, and thus the breakdown voltage of the overall M-type HV MOSFET device is deteriorated. For solving the above drawbacks, a high voltage MOS transistor and fabricating method thereof are disclosed in a co-pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/216,276, which was filed by the same assignee of the present application. However, the performance is still unsatisfied.
- Therefore, there is a need of providing an improved HV MOSFET device for increasing the breakdown voltage in order to integrate various shapes of HV MOSFET devices.
- In accordance with an aspect, the present invention provides a HV MOSFET device. The HV MOSFET device includes a substrate, a deep well region, a source/body region, a drain region, a gate structure, and a first doped region. The substrate has a first conductivity type. The deep well region is constructed in the substrate, and has a second conductivity type different from the first conductivity type. The deep well region includes a boundary site and a middle site. The boundary site is located around the middle site. The source/body region is formed in the deep well region and defines a channel region. The drain region is formed in the deep well region. The gate structure is arranged between the source/body region and the drain region, wherein the gate structure comprises an insulator layer. The first doped region is formed in the deep well region and disposed under the insulator layer, and having the first conductivity type. There is a first ratio between a dopant dose of the first doped region and a dopant dose of the boundary site of the deep well region. There is a second ratio between a dopant dose of the first doped region and a dopant dose of the middle site of the deep well region. A percentage difference between the first ratio and the second ratio is smaller than or equal to 5%.

FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view illustrating a HV MOSFET device. The HV MOSFET device comprises asubstrate 1, adeep well region 11, a source/body region 12, adrain region 13, agate structure 15, and a firstdoped region 16. Thesubstrate 1 has a first conductivity type. The deepwell region 11 is constructed in thesubstrate 1. Thedeep well region 11 has a second conductivity type, wherein the second conductivity type is different from the first conductivity type. The source/body region 12 and thedrain region 13 are both formed in thedeep well region 11. In addition, a highvoltage well region 17 is formed in the source/body region 12, wherein the highvoltage well region 17 has the first conductivity type. Thechannel region 14 is defined within the highvoltage well region 17. Thegate structure 15 is disposed over thechannel region 14. Aninsulator layer 19 is formed between thechannel 14 and thedrain region 13. For example, theinsulator layer 19 is a field oxide layer. The firstdoped region 16 is formed in thedeep well region 11 and disposed under thefield oxide layer 19. The firstdoped region 16 has the first conductivity type. In the following embodiments, the first conductivity type is a P type, and the second conductivity type is an N type. In practical applications, the first conductivity type may be an N type, and the second conductivity type may be a P type. - The present inventors found that some phenomena occur after the M-type HV MOSFET device is subject to a high-temperature thermal process for a long time period. For example, during the thermal process, the high temperature may result in a thermal diffusion effect. Due to the thermal diffusion effect, the dopant distribution in the M-type HV MOSFET device is changed. Consequently, a ratio between the P-type dopant dose of the first doped region 16 (i.e. a P-top layer) and the N-type dopant dose of the
deep well region 11 becomes non-uniform. Under this circumstance, since the ratio between the P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 16 and the N-type dopant dose of thedeep well region 11 in some specified sites is far away from an optimized ratio, the degradation of the breakdown voltage is induced.FIG. 2 is a schematic top view illustrating the dopant distribution of the deep well region of an M-type HV MOSFET device after the M-type HV MOSFET device is subject to a high-temperature thermal process for a long time period. As shown inFIG. 2 , the N-type dopant in theboundary site 111 of thedeep well region 11 is readily diffused outwardly, so that the N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 111 of thedeep well region 11 is largely reduced. Under this circumstance, the N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 111 of thedeep well region 11 and the N-type dopant dose of themiddle site 112 are not uniform. Please refer toFIG. 2 again. Originally, the N-type dopant of thedeep well region 11 is uniformly distributed. After the M-type HV MOSFET device is subject to a high-temperature thermal process for a long time period, the N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 111 of thedeep well region 11 is lower than the N-type dopant dose of themiddle site 112. - For solving the above drawbacks, the present invention provides a method for fabricating a HV MOSFET device.
FIGS. 3A-3C schematically illustrate a method for fabricating a HV MOSFET device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Firstly, as shown inFIG. 3A , a P-type substrate 3 is provided. An N-typedeep well region 31 is constructed in the P-type substrate 3. In addition, after an ion implantation process is performed, the N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 311 of the N-typedeep well region 31 and the N-type dopant dose of themiddle site 312 are controlled to be different. In this embodiment, the N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 311 is controlled to be higher than the N-type dopant dose of themiddle site 312. - Then, as shown in
FIG. 3B , a source/body region 32, adrain region 33 and a firstdoped region 36 are formed in the N-typedeep well region 31. - Then, a
gate structure 35 and other components are formed. The resulting structure of the HV MOSFET device is shown in the cross-sectional view ofFIG. 3C . The P-type substrate 3 is a P-type substrate. The source/body region 32 comprises a high voltage P-well region 320, a P+ body contact region 321 (i.e. a heavily P-doped region), and an N+source contact region 322, wherein the dopant dose of thesource contact region 321 is higher than the dopant dose of the high voltage P-well region 320. Thedrain region 33 comprises an N-drift region 330 and an N+ drain contact region 331 (i.e. a heavily N-doped region), wherein the dopant dose of thedrain contact region 331 is higher than the dopant dose of the N-drift region 330. Thegate structure 35 comprises agate dielectric layer 350, agate conductor layer 351, aninsulator layer 352, and afield electrode 353. Thegate dielectric layer 350 and theinsulator layer 352 are disposed over thechannel region 34, the N-typedeep well region 31 and the firstdoped region 36. Thegate conductor layer 351 and thefield electrode 353 are disposed on thegate dielectric layer 350 and theinsulator layer 352. - From the above discussions, the N-type dopant dose of the
boundary site 311 of the N-typedeep well region 31 is controlled to be higher than the N-type dopant dose of themiddle site 312 after the ion implantation process is performed. Even if the thermal diffusion effect occurs after the high-temperature thermal process is carried out for a long time period, the N-type dopant in theboundary site 311 of thedeep well region 31 is still diffused outwardly. Consequently, the N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 311 of the N-typedeep well region 31 is reduced to be substantially equal to the N-type dopant dose of themiddle site 312. Preferably, after the high-temperature thermal process is carried out for a long time period, there is a first ratio between the P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 36 and the N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 311 of thedeep well region 31, and there is a second ratio between the P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 36 and the N-type dopant dose of themiddle site 312 of thedeep well region 31. Preferably, a percentage difference between the first ratio and the second ratio is smaller than or equal to 5%. In such way, the breakdown voltage is increased, and the drawbacks encountered from the prior art are eliminated. Moreover, in a case that the concepts disclosed in the a co-pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 13/216,276 are be applied to the present invention, the performance of the HV MOSFET device will be further enhanced. - The present invention provides several approaches for controlling the N-type dopant dose of the
boundary site 311 of thedeep well region 31 to be higher than the N-type dopant dose of themiddle site 312. In accordance with a first approach, two implantation masks are employed to implant the N-type dopant. A first implantation process is performed to introduce the N-type dopant through the opening of the first implantation mask, thereby defining thedeep well region 31. Then, theboundary site 311 of thedeep well region 31 is exposed to the opening of the second implantation mask. Then, a second implantation process is performed to introduce the N-type dopant through the opening of the second implantation mask. Under this circumstance, the N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 311 is higher than the N-type dopant dose of themiddle site 312. - In accordance with a second approach, a
special implantation mask 40 as shown inFIG. 4 is provided. Theboundary site 311 is completely exposed to theopening 41 of theimplantation mask 40, but theimplantation mask 40 has a plurality ofelongated bars 42 corresponding to themiddle site 312. After a single implantation process is performed, themiddle site 312 is only partially doped with the N-type dopant. Under this circumstance, the N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 311 is higher than the N-type dopant dose of themiddle site 312. - In accordance with a third approach, a gradient mask (not shown) is provided. The dot density of the gradient mask corresponding to the
boundary site 311 is lower than the dot density of the gradient mask corresponding to themiddle site 312. After a single implantation process is performed to introduce the N-type dopant through the vacant space of the gradient mask, the N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 311 is higher than the N-type dopant dose of themiddle site 312. - As mentioned above, there is a first ratio between the P-type dopant dose of the first
doped region 36 and the N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 311 of thedeep well region 31, and there is a second ratio between the P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 36 and the N-type dopant dose of themiddle site 312 of thedeep well region 31. The present invention provides several approaches for adjusting the percentage difference between the first ratio and the second ratio to be smaller than or equal to 5%. By these approaches, the P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 36 is adjusted while the N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 311 of thedeep well region 31 is kept unchanged. That is, the P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 36 corresponding to theboundary site 311 is decreased, but the P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 36 corresponding to themiddle site 312 is increased. - In accordance with a first approach, two implantation masks are employed to implant the P-type dopant. A first implantation process is performed to introduce the P-type dopant through the opening of the first implantation mask, thereby defining the first
doped region 36. Then, the firstdoped region 36 corresponding to themiddle site 312 of thedeep well region 31 is exposed to the opening of the second implantation mask. Then, a second implantation process is performed to introduce the P-type dopant through the opening of the second implantation mask. Under this circumstance, the P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 36 corresponding to themiddle site 312 is higher than the P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 36 corresponding to theboundary site 311. - In accordance with a second approach, a
special implantation mask 50 as shown inFIG. 5 is provided. The firstdoped region 36 corresponding to themiddle site 312 is completely exposed to theopening 51 of theimplantation mask 50, but the firstdoped region 36 corresponding to theboundary site 311 is exposed to a grid-shapedopening 52 of theimplantation mask 50. After a single implantation process is performed, the firstdoped region 36 corresponding to theboundary site 311 is only partially doped with the P-type dopant. Under this circumstance, the N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 311 is higher than the N-type dopant dose of themiddle site 312. Under this circumstance, the P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 36 corresponding to themiddle site 312 is higher than the P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 36 corresponding to theboundary site 311. - In accordance with a third approach, a gradient mask (not shown) is provided. The dot density of the gradient mask corresponding to the
middle site 312 is lower than the dot density of the gradient mask corresponding to theboundary site 311. After a single implantation process is performed to introduce the P-type dopant through the vacant space of the gradient mask, the P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 36 corresponding to themiddle site 312 is higher than the P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 36 corresponding to theboundary site 311. - As mentioned above, the N-type dopant in the
boundary site 311 of thedeep well region 31 is readily diffused outwardly after the high-temperature thermal process is carried out for a long time period. Whereas, the P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 36 is not easily diffused after the high-temperature thermal process is carried out for a long time period. Due to the thermal diffusion effect, the N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 311 of the N-typedeep well region 31 is reduced. Consequently, the lower N-type dopant dose of theboundary site 311 can match the lower P-type dopant dose of the firstdoped region 36 corresponding to theboundary site 311. In such way, the percentage difference between the first ratio and the second ratio is adjusted to be smaller than or equal to 5%. - From the above description, the percentage difference between the first ratio and the second ratio is reduced by adjusting the dopant dose. Consequently, the breakdown voltage degradation problem of the conventional M-type HV MOSFET device will be minimized.
