본 논문에서는 Super Juction MOSFET의 우수한 열 특성을 검증하기 위해 도출된 공정 및 설계파라미터를 이용하여 열특성을 분석하였다. 열 특성 중 핵심공정인 Trench 식각 각도에 따른 온도차이, 열 저항, 그 때 흐르는 드레인 전류를 측정하여 전체 소비전력을 분석하였다. 분석한 결과 Trench 식각 각도가 $89.3^{\circ}$ 일 때 온도차와 열 저항 값이 가장 작게 나왔으며, 식각 각도에 따라서 분포는 경향성을 보이지 않았다. 따라서 반복 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통해 최적의 값을 도출해야 되며, 본 측정 결과 최적의 식각 각도는 $89.3^{\circ}$와 $89.6^{\circ}$의 결과를 보였다. 다른 전기적인 특성을 고려하여 최종 식각 각도를 보여야 하며, 열 특성의 우수한 SJ MOSFET이 산업에의 이용을 위해 본 논문의 자료가 충분히 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Super junction trench gate power MOSFETs have been receiving attention in terms of the trade-off between breakdown voltage and on-resistance. The vertical structure of super junction trench gate power MOSFETs allows the on-resistance to be reduced compared with conventional Trench Gate Power MOSFETs. The heat release of devices is also decreased with the reduction of on-resistance. In this paper, Lattice Temperature of two devices, Trench Gate Power MOSFET and Super junction trench gate power MOSFET, are compared in several temperature circumstance with the same Breakdown Voltage and Cell-pitch. The devices were designed by 100V Breakdown voltage and measured from 250K Lattice Temperature. We have tried to investigate how much temperature rise in the same condition. According as temperature gap between top of devices and bottom of devices, Super junction trench gate power MOSFET has a tendency to generate lower heat release than Trench Gate Power MOSFET. This means that Super junction trench gate power MOSFET is superior for wide-temperature range operation. When trench etching process is applied for making P-pillar region, trench angle factor is also important component. Depending on trench angle, characteristics of Super junction device are changed. In this paper, we focus temperature characteristic as changing trench angle factor. Consequently, Trench angle factor don't have a great effect on temperature change.

This paper was showed latch up characteristics of super junction power MOSFET by parasitic thyristor according to trench etch angle. As a result of research, if trench etch angle of super junction MOSFET is larger, we obtained large latch up voltage. When trench etch angle was $90^{\circ}$, latch up voltage was more 50 V. and we got 700 V breakdown voltage. But we analyzed on resistance. if trench etch angle of super junction MOSFET is larger, we obtained high on resistance. Therefore, we need optimal point by simulation and experiment for solution of trade off.

As a result, super junction MOSFET improve on about 40% on-state voltage drop performance than planar MOSFET.

Power metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) devices are widely used in power electronics applications, such as brushless direct current motors and power modules. For a conventional power MOSFET device such as trench double-diffused MOSFET (TDMOS), there is a tradeoff relationship between specific on-state resistance and breakdown voltage. To overcome the tradeoff relationship, a super-junction (SJ) trench MOSFET (TMOSFET) structure is studied and designed in this letter. The processing conditions are proposed, and studies on the unit cell are performed for optimal design. The structure modeling and the characteristic analyses for doping density, potential distribution, electric field, width, and depth of trench in an SJ TMOSFET are performed and simulated by using of the SILVACO TCAD 2D device simulator, Atlas. As a result, the specific on-state resistance of 1.2 $m{\Omega}-cm^2$ at the class of 100 V and 100 A is successfully optimized in the SJ TMOSFET, which has the better performance than TDMOS in design parameters.

For the conventional power MOSFET (metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor) device structure, there exists a tradeoff relationship between specific on-state resistance (Ron,sp) and breakdown voltage (BV). In order to overcome this tradeoff, a super-junction (SJ) trench MOSFET (TMOSFET) structure with uniform or non-uniform doping concentration, which decreases linearly in the vertical direction from the N drift region at the bottom to the channel at the top, for an optimal design is suggested in this paper. The on-state resistance of $0.96m{\Omega}-cm2$ at the SJ TMOSFET is much less than that at the conventional power MOSFET under the same breakdown voltage of 100V. A design methodology for the edge termination is proposed to achieve the same breakdown voltage and on-state resistance as the main body of the super-junction TMOSFET by using of the SILVACO TCAD 2D device simulator, Atlas.

In Super Junction MOSFET, Charge Balance is the most important issue of the trench filling Super Junction fabrication process. In order to achieve the best electrical characteristics, the N type and P type drift regions must be fully depleted when the drain bias approaches the breakdown voltage, called Charge Balance Condition. In this paper, two methods from the fabrication process were used at the Charge Balance condition: Trench angle decreasing process and Bottom implantation process. A lower on-resistance could be achieved using a lower trench angle. And a higher breakdown voltage could be achieved using the bottom implantation process. The electrical characteristics of manufactured discrete device chips are compared with those of the devices which are designed of TCAD simulation.

파워 소자의 트레이드오프 현상을 최소화하기 위해 제시된 구조가 Super Junction 구조이다. Super Junction은 기존의 많이 사용하던 기본 구조 대비 1/5 정도의 낮은 온 저항(Ron) 특성을 가질 수 있다. Super Junction 구조의 공정 방법으로 Multi-Epi 공정과 Deep-Trench 공정 방법이 있다. Deep-Trench 공정은 실리콘 기판 상면에 깊은 트렌치 공정을 통하여 그안에 불순물이 도핑 되어 있는 폴리실리콘을 매립하여 P-Pillar를 형성 시키는 공정 방법이라 매립하는 과정에서 결함이 형성되기 쉬워서 비교적 어려운 제조 방법으로 알려져 있다. 하지만 비교적 Deep-Trench 공정으로 만들어진 구조가 낮은 온저항과 높은 항복 전압을 형성하여 좋은 효율을 보인다. 본 논문에서는 공정상의 새로운 방법을 제시하고, Charge Balance 이론을 접목시킨 구조를 설계하였다.

This paper was developed and described core-process to implement low on resistance which was the most important characteristics of SJ (super junction) MOSFET. Firstly, using process-simulation, SJ MOSFET optimal structure was set and developed its process flow chart by repeated simulation. Following process flow, gate level process was performed. And source and drain level process was similar to genral planar MOSFET, so the process was the same as the general planar MOSFET. And then to develop deep trench process which was main process of the whole process, after finishing photo mask process, we developed deep trench process. We expected that developed process was necessary to develop SJ MOSFET for automobile semiconductor.

In this paper, we analyze electrical characteristics of n/p-pillar layer according to trench angle which is the most important characteristics of SJ MOSFET and core process. Because research target is 600 V class SJ MOSFET, so conclusively trench angle deduced 89.5 degree to implement the breakdown voltage 750 V with 30% margin rate. we found that on resistance is $22mohm{\cdot}cm^2$ and threshold voltage is 3.5 V. Moreover, depletion layer of electric field distribution also uniformly distributes.
