Abstract

The invention belongs to semiconductor technology, and specifically relates to a high-voltage power device terminal structure. The high-voltage power device terminal structure comprises a groove in a silicon chip body and P-type protective rings, combination of the internal groove and the protective rings allows the peak value of an electric field to be transferred from the surface of the silicon chip into the body, and the breakdown points of a terminal area are transferred from the surface of the silicon chip to the two sides of a dielectric layer in the groove. Since the critical breakdown electric field (about 1e7V / cm) of the dielectric layer is far higher than a critical breakdown electric field (about 1e5V / cm) of silicone, P-type floating islands in staggered arrangement with the P-type protective rings reduce the peak values of the electric fields on the two sides of the P-type protective rings without reducing the reverse blockout voltage of a terminal area, thereby preventing premature breakdown of PN junctions in the silicon chip body.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to semiconductor technology, in particular to a terminal structure of a high-voltage power device. Background technique [0002] High-voltage power semiconductor devices have been widely used in the field of power supply in recent years. For example, IGBT (insulated gate bipolar transistor), FRD (fast recovery diode) are used in automotive drive, induction heating and other fields, and high-voltage MOSFET is used in LLC (logic chain road control) topology. In order to improve the performance of high-voltage power devices, researchers at home and abroad have successively proposed various structures, such as super-junction structures, trench MOS combined with P-type guard ring structures, and so on. These structures are used to increase the doping concentration of the N-drift region to reduce the forward conduction resistance of the MOSFET. [0003] An important issue to be considered in the design of high-voltage power devices is...
