Problems solved by technology

Therefore, in the case of thinning the n-type drift layer in order to reduce the on-state resistance, the extension distance of the depletion layer in the off state will be shortened, so it is easy to reach the breakdown electric field strength at a low applied voltage, making the withstand voltage reduce
On the other hand, in order to improve the withstand voltage of the vertical MOSFET, it is necessary to increase the thickness of the n-type drift layer to increase the on-state resistance
Such a relationship between on-state resistance and withstand voltage is called a trade-off relationship, and it is generally difficult to improve both of them in the trade-off relationship.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a super junction semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the super junction semiconductor device. Background technique [0002] In a normal n-channel vertical MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor: Insulated Gate Field Effect Transistor), among the multiple semiconductor layers formed in the semiconductor substrate, the n-type conduction layer (drift layer) has the highest resistance semiconductor layer. The resistance of the n-type drift layer greatly affects the on-state resistance of the entire vertical MOSFET. The on-resistance of the entire vertical MOSFET can be reduced by reducing the thickness of the n-type drift layer and shortening the current path. [0003] However, the vertical MOSFET also has a function of maintaining a breakdown voltage by extending the depletion layer to the high-resistance n-type drift layer in the off state. Therefore, in the case of thinning the n-typ...
