A new dynamic RAM cell called Trench Epitaxial Transistor Cell (TETC) has been developed for 4M to 16M DRAMS. Also the fabrication process for device isolation which can decrease the narrow effect using SEG process has been developed. We verified the characteristic of the new cell structure with the PICSES simulator on VAX8450.

A trench MOS barrier Schottky (TMBS) rectifier is proposed which utilizes the upper half of the trench sidewall as an active area. The proposed structure improves the forward voltage drop by 20$\%$ in comparison with the conventional one without degradation in breakdown voltage. An analytical model for the field distribution is given and compared with two-dimensional numerical simulations.

In this paper, a new small size Lateral Trench Electrode Power MOSFET is proposed. This new structure, called "LTEMOSFET"(Lateral Trench Electrode Power MOSFET), is based on the conventional MOSFET. The entire electrode of LTEMOSFET is placed in trench oxide. The forward blocking voltage of the proposed LTEMOSFET is improved by 1.6 times with that of the conventional MOSFET. The forward blocking voltage of LTEMOSFET is 250V. At the same size, a increase of the forward blocking voltage of about 1.6 times relative to the conventional MOSFET is observed by using TMA-MEDICI which is used for analyzing device characteristics. Because the electrodes of the proposed device are formed in trench oxide, the electric field in the device are crowded to trench oxide. We observed that the characteristics of the proposed device was improved by using TMA-MEDICI and that the fabrication of the proposed device is possible by using TMA-TSUPREM4.

TIGBT has some merits which are lower on-state voltage drop and smaller cell pitch, but also has a defect which is relatively lower breakdown voltage in comparison with planar IGBT. This lower breakdown voltage is due to the electric field which is concentrated on beneath the vertical gate. Therefore in this paper, new trench IGBT structure is proposed to improve breakdown voltage In the new proposed structure, a narrow oxide beneath the trench gate edge where the electric field is concentrated is extended into rectangular shape to decrease the electric field. As a result, breakdown voltage is improved to 23%.

본 논문에서는 Trench를 이용하여 기존 C-DMOSFET(Conventional DMOSFET)과 S-DMOSFET(Shielded DMOSFET) 구조보다 더 깊은 영역에 P+ shielding을 형성한 TS-DMOSFET(Trench Shielded DMOSFET) 구조를 제안하였으며 TCAD 시뮬레이션을 통해 C- 및 S-DMOSFET 구조와 전기적 특성을 비교하였다. 제안한 구조는 Source에 Trench를 형성한 후 도핑을 진행하므로 SiC 물질 특성과 관계없이 깊은 영역에 P+ shielding을 형성할 수 있다. 이로 인해 P-base에 인가되는 전압이 감소하여 리치스루 효과가 완화되었다. 그 결과 세 구조 모두 3.3kV의 항복 전압을 가질 때 제안한 구조의 온저항은 9.7mΩ㎠으로 C-DMOSFET과 S-DMOSFET의 온저항인 30.5mΩ㎠, 19.3mΩ㎠ 대비 각각 68%, 54% 개선된 온저항을 갖는다.

This paper presents a comprehensive mathematical analysis and simulation of trench IGBT with the help of PIN-PNP combinational model. Since trench IGBT is characteristically influenced by PIN diode, it may be almost impossible to analyze the trench IGBT using PNP-MOS modeling methods, even PIN-MOS techniques which neglect the hole current components coming into p-base region. A new PIN-PNP complementary cooperational model is developed in order to make up the drawbacks of existing models. It would allow us to make qualitative analysis as well as simulation about switching and on-state characteristics of 1,700 V trench IGBT. Moreover, if we improve the PIN diode effects through the optimization of trench structure, trench IGBT is expected to be one of the most promising devices in the not only high-voltage but also high speed switching device field.

In this paper, a new small sized Lateral Trench Electrode Power MOS was proposed. This new structure, called LTEMOS(Lateral Trench Electrode Power MOS), was based on the conventional lateral power MOS. But the entire electrodes of LTEMOS were placed in trench oxide. The forward blocking voltage of the proposed LTEMOS was improved by 1.5 times with that of the conventional lateral power MOS. The forward blocking voltage of LTEMOS was about 240 V. At the same size, an improvement of the forward blocking voltage of about 1.5 times relative to the conventional MOS was observed by using ISE-TCAD which was used for analyzing device's electrical characteristics. Because all of the electrodes of the proposed device were formed in each trench oxide, the electric field was crowded to trench oxide and punch-through breakdown was occurred, lately.

In this paper, we first studied the factors affecting the motor current (MC) signal, which was strongly affected by the systematic hardware noises depending on polishing such as pad conditioning and arm oscillation of platen and recipe, head motor. Next, we studied the end point detection (EPD) for the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process of shallow trench isolation (STI) with reverse moat structure. The MC signal showed a high amplitude peak in the fore part caused by the reverse meal. pattern. We also found that the EP could not be detected properly and reproducibly due to the pad conditioning effect, especially when conventional low selectivity slurry was used. Even when there was no pad conditioning effect, the EPD method could not be applied, since the measured end points were always the same due to the characteristics of the reverse moat structure with an open nitride layer.

In this paper, a new small size Lateral Trench Electrode Power MOSFET with local doping is proposed. This new structure is based on the conventional lateral power MOSFET. The entire electrodes of proposed device are placed in trench oxide. The forward blocking voltage of the proposed device is improved by 3.3 times with that of the conventional lateral power MOSFET. The forward blocking voltage of proposed device is about 500V. At the same size, a increase of the forward blocking voltage of about 3.3 times relative to the conventional lateral power MOSFET is observed by using TMA-MEDICI which is used for analyzing device characteristics. Because the electrodes of the proposed device are formed in trench oxide respectively, the electric field in the device are crowded to trench oxide. And because of the structure which has a narrow drain doping width, the punch through breakdown can be occurred in higher voltage than that of conventional lateral power MOSFET. We observed that the characteristics of the proposed device was improved by using TMA-MEDICI and that the fabrication of the proposed device is possible by using TMA-TSUPREM4.
