Power MOSFET(metal oxide silicon field effect transistor) operate voltage-driven devices, design to control the large power switching device for power supply, converter, motor control, etc. But on-resistance characteristics depending on the increasing breakdown voltage spikes is a problem. So 600 V planar power MOSFET compare to 1/3 low on-resistance characteristics of super junction MOSFET structure. In this paper design to 600 V planar MOSFET and super junction MOSFET, then improvement of comparative analysis breakdown voltage and resistance characteristics. As a result, super junction MOSFET improve on about 40% on-state voltage drop performance than planar MOSFET.

In this paper, an investigation of the 8" process for Trench Power MOSFET Application and Trench MOSFETs and its impact on device performance is presented. Layout dimensions of trench power MOSFETs have been continuously reduced in order to decrease the specific on-resistance, maintaining equal vertical dimensions. We discuss experimental results for devices with a pitch size down fabricated with an unconventional gate trench topology and a simplified manufacturing scheme. The fabricated Trench MOSFETs are observed the trench gate oxidation by SEM.

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.

This research analyzed the electrical characteristics of an 80 V optimal trench power MOSFET (metal oxide field effect transistor) for mobile applications. The power MOSFET is a fast switching device in fields with low voltage(<100 V) such as mobile application. Moreover, the power MOSFET is a major carrier device that is not minor carrier accumulation when the device is turned off. We performed process and device simulation using TCAD tools such as MEDICI and TSUPREM. The electrical characteristics of the proposed trench gate power MOSFET such as breakdown voltage and on resistance were compared with those of the conventional power MOSFET. Consequently, we obtained breakdown voltage of 100 V and low on resistance of $130m{\Omega}$. The proposed power MOSFET will be used as a switch in batteries of mobile phones and note books.

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.

In this paer, low on-resistance and high-power trench gate MOSFET (Metal-Oxide-Silicon Field Effect Transistor) incorporating current sensing FET (Field Effect Transistor) is proposed and evaluated. The trench gate power MOSFET was fabricated with $0.6{\mu}m$ trench width and $3.0{\mu}m$ cell pitch. Compared with the main switching MOSFET, the on-chip current sensing FET has the same device structure and geometry. In order to improve cell density and device reliability, self-aligned trench etching and hydrogen annealing techniques were performed. Moreover, maintaining low threshold voltage and simultaneously improving gate oxide relialility, the stacked gate oxide structure combining thermal and CVD (chemical vapor deposition) oxides was adopted. The on-resistance and breakdown voltage of the high density trench gate device were evaluated $24m{\Omega}$ and 100 V, respectively. The measured current sensing ratio and it's variation depending on the gate voltage were approximately 70:1 and less than 5.6 %.

In this paper, a low on-resistance and high current driving capability trench gate power metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) incorporating a current sensing feature is proposed and evaluated. In order to realize higher cell density, higher current driving capability, cost-effective production, and higher reliability, self-aligned trench etching and hydrogen annealing techniques are developed. While maintaining low threshold voltage and simultaneously improving gate oxide integrity, the double-layer gate oxide technology was adapted. The trench gate power MOSFET was designed with a 0.6 μm trench width and 3.0 μm cell pitch. The evaluated on-resistance and breakdown voltage of the device were less than 24 mΩ and 105 V, respectively. The measured sensing ratio was approximately 70:1. Sensing ratio variations depending on the gate applied voltage of 4 V ~ 10 V were less than 5.6%.

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.
