Abstract:
A method of forming a vertical MOSFET device includes forming a first trench within a semiconductor layer of a first polarity, the first trench generally defining a well region of a second polarity opposite the first polarity; growing a first epitaxial well layer of the second polarity over the original semiconductor layer; growing a second epitaxial source contact layer of the first polarity over the well layer; forming a second trench through the source contact layer and at least a portion of the well layer; growing a third epitaxial layer of the second polarity over the source contact layer; and planarizing at least the first and second epitaxial layers so as to expose an upper surface of the original semiconductor layer, wherein a top surface of the third epitaxial layer is substantially coplanar with a top surface of the source contact layer prior to ohmic contact formation.

US Patent:
7906427, Mar 15, 2011
Filed:
Oct 14, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/251341
Inventors:
Jody Alan Fronheiser - Selkirk NY, US
Peter Micah Sandvik - Niskayuna NY, US
Kevin Sean Matocha - Rexford NY, US
Vinayak Tilak - Niskayuna NY, US
Assignee:
General Electric Company - Niskayuna NY
International Classification:
H01L 21/4763
US Classification:
438622
Abstract:
There is provided a method for dimension profiling of a semiconductor device. The method involves incorporating a feature comprising a detectable element into the device, and thereafter detecting the detectable element to determine a dimension of the feature. This information can be used for the determination of a dimension of buried channels, and also for end-point detection of CMP processes.

International Classification:
H01L 21/336
US Classification:
438269
Abstract:
A method of forming a vertical MOSFET device includes forming a trench within a drift layer substrate, the drift layer comprising a first polarity type, the trench generally defining a well region of a second polarity type opposite the first polarity type. An ohmic contact layer is formed within a bottom surface of the trench, the ohmic contact layer comprising a material of the second polarity type. A layer of the second polarity type is epitaxially grown over the drift layer, sidewall surfaces of the trench, and the ohmic contact layer. A layer of the first polarity type is epitaxially grown over the epitaxially grown layer of the second polarity type so as to refill the trench, and the epitaxially grown layers of the first and second polarity type are planarized so as to expose an upper surface of the drift layer substrate.
