Patent number: 11049958Abstract: A semiconductor power device and a manufacturing method thereof are provided. In the manufacturing method, before the self-aligned silicide process is performed, a gate stacked structure and a spacer are formed on a semiconductor layer having a body region and a source region. The spacer defines a portion of the source region for forming a silicide layer. Subsequently, the self-aligned silicide process is performed with the gate stacked structure and the spacer functioning as a mask to form the silicide layer at the defined portion of the source region. Thereafter, an interconnection structure including an interlayer dielectric layer and a source conductive layer is formed on the semiconductor layer. The source conductive layer is electrically connected to the source region. The silicide layer extends toward the gate stacked structure from a position under the source conductive layer to another position under the interlayer dielectric layer.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2019Date of Patent: June 29, 2021Assignee: SUPER GROUP SEMICONDUCTOR CO., LTD.Inventors: Sung-Nien Tang, Ho-Tai Chen, Hsiu-Wen Hsu

Patent number: 10014369Abstract: A super junction semiconductor device is provided. The super-junction semiconductor device includes a substrate, a drift layer disposed on the substrate, an insulating layer, a lightly-doped region, and a main loop-shaped field plate. The drift layer includes a plurality of n- and p-type doped regions alternately arranged in parallel to form a super-junction structure, and defines a cell region and a termination region surrounding the cell region. The lightly-doped region is formed in the drift layer and connected to a surface of the drift layer. The lightly-doped region has a first end portion closer to the cell region and a second end portion farther away from the cell region. The insulating layer disposed on the drift layer covers the termination region. The main loop-shaped field plate is disposed on the insulating layer and covers the second end portion.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2017Date of Patent: July 3, 2018Assignee: SUPER GROUP SEMICONDUCTOR CO., LTD.Inventors: Sung-Nien Tang, Ho-Tai Chen, Hsiu-Wen Hsu
