本文提出了一种具有双漂移区和双导通路径的新型LDMOS器件,实现了超低比导通电阻Ron,sp。其特点在于,漂移区采用P型和N型纵向交替所构成的双漂移区结构,并引入平面栅和槽型栅分别控制P型和N型漂移区,使得器件能够在漂移区中形成两条独立的电子导通或消失路径。在对平面栅施加正向电压时,可使P型漂移区的表面发生反型,形成连接沟道和N+漏极的高浓度电子反型层,从而极大提高器件导通时的电子密度,降低比导通电阻。槽型栅极的引入可使器件在关断时产生一条额外的电子消失路径,从而缩短器件的关断时间toff。此外,由于引入P型漂移区,使得电子在P型漂移区内输运时与其体内的空穴发生复合,从而加快了电子的消失过程并进一步地缩短器件的toff。仿真结果表明,在200V的击穿电压BV等级下,本文所提出的新型LDMOS的Ron,sp为3.43mΩ·cm2,关断时间为9ns。相比传统的LDMOS器件,Ron,sp和toff分别下降了90%,11.6%。该器件不仅实现了Ron,sp和BV的良好折中,而且缩短了器件的toff,展现出了优异的器件性能。In order to improve the contradictory between Specific On-resistance (Ron,sp) and Breakdown voltage (BV) of LDMOS, and enhance the turn-off characteristic, this paper proposes a novel LDMOS device with dual-drift regions and dual-conduction paths, which achieves an ultra-low Ron,sp. The key feature of the proposed device is the introduction of a dual-drift region structure with alternating P-type and N-type regions, along with the incorporation of planar and trench gates to control the P-type and N-type drift regions, respectively. This configuration enables the formation of two independent electron conduction paths within the drift region. When a positive voltage is applied to the planar gate, a voltage difference generated between the surface of the P-type drift region and the body of device’s drift. Thereby, under the impact of the voltage difference, the electrons are pulled to the surface of the P-type drift region to inverts and forms a high-density electron inversion layer that connects the channel and the N+ drain, which significantly increases the electron density during conduction and reduces the Ron,sp. The introduction of the trench gate provides an additional electron disappearance path, which shortens the device's turn-off time (toff). Furthermore, the introduction of the P-type drift region facilitates the recombination of electrons with holes within the P-type drift region, accelerating the electron disappearance process and further reducing the device'stoff. What’s more, the proposed device exhibits a more uniform electric field distribution and higher voltage capability is due to the P+N-N+P+ structure adopted in the PolySi-top layer. During the off-state, each of the P+N- junction and the N+P+ junction generate an electric field peak at the interface, which modulates the electric field distribution on the surface of the drift region. Simulation results indicate that at a Breakdown Voltage (BV) level of 200V, the proposed LDMOS exhibits a Ron,sp of 3.43 mΩ·cm² and a toff of 9 ns. Compared to conventional LDMOS devices, there is a 90% reduction in Ron,sp and an 11.6% decrease in toff. The proposed device not only achieves an excellent trade-off between Ron,sp and BV but also shortens the toff, demonstrating the device achieved superior performance.
