  • Patent number: 7855413
    Abstract: A transistor and diode having a low resistance and a high breakdown voltage are provided. When the bottom portion of a narrow trench having the shape of a rectangular parallelepiped is filled with a semiconductor grown by epitaxial method, a {1 0 0} plane is exposed at the sidewalls of the narrow trench. The semiconductor is epitaxially grown at a constant rate on each sidewall of the narrow trench; thereby, creating a filling material with no voids present therein. The concentration and width of the filling material are optimized. This allows the portion located between the filling materials in a drain layer to be completely depleted when the filling material is completely depleted; thereby, making it possible to establish an electric field having a constant strength in the depletion layer extended in the drain layer.

  • Patent number: 7573109
    Abstract: A semiconductor device having high withstand strength against destruction. The semiconductor device 1 includes guard buried regions 44b of second conductivity type concentrically provided on a resistance layer 15 of first conductivity type and base diffusion regions 17a are provided inside of the guard buried region 44b and base buried regions 44a of the second conductivity type are provided on the bottom surface of the base diffusion regions 17a. A distance between adjacent base buried regions 44a at the bottom of the same base diffusion region 17a is Wm1, a distance between adjacent base buried regions 44a at the bottom of the different base diffusion regions 17a is Wm2, and a distance between the guard buried regions 44b is WPE. A ratio of an impurity quantity Q1 of the first conductivity type and an impurity quantity Q2 of the second conductivity type included inside the widthwise center of the innermost guard buried region 44b is 0.90<Q2/Q1 when Wm1<WPE<Wm2.

  • Patent number: 7365391
    Abstract: A semiconductor device having high withstand voltage is provided. An active groove 22a includes a long and narrow main groove part 26 and a sub groove part 27 connected to a longitudinal side surface of the main groove part, and a buried region 24 of a second conductivity type whose height is lower than the bottom surface of the base diffusion region 32a of the second conductivity type is provided on the bottom surface of the main groove part 26. An active groove filling region 25 of the second conductivity type in contact with the base diffusion region 32a is provided in the sub groove part 27. The buried region 24 is contacted to the base diffusion region 32a through the active groove filling region 25. Since one gate groove 83 is formed by the part above the buried region 24 in one active groove 22a, the gate electrode plugs 48 are not separated, which allows the electrode pattern to be simplified.

  • Patent number: 7282764
    Abstract: A semiconductor device having high ruggedness is provided. The distance Wm2 between buried regions, positioned at the bottoms of different base diffusion regions and face each other, is set smaller than the distance Wm1 between buried regions positioned at the bottom of the same base diffusion region (Wm1>Wm2). An avalanche breakdown occurs under the bottom of the base diffusion region, and the avalanche current is not passed through a high resistance part immediately under the source diffusion region in the base diffusion region, thereby providing high withstand strength against destruction.

  • Patent number: 7208375
    Abstract: A technique for improving a ruggedness of a transistor against breakdown is provided. In a transistor of the present invention, a height of filling regions is higher than that of buried regions, so that a withstanding voltage of the filling regions is higher than that of the buried regions. Therefore, since avalanche breakdown occurs in an active region, causing an avalanche breakdown current to flow through the active region having a large area, current concentration does not occur. As a result, a ruggedness of an element against breakdown is increased.

  • Patent number: 7196376
    Abstract: An active groove filled region 23a is kept at a portion of an active groove 22a connecting to an embedded region 24 positioned below a gate groove 83. The active groove filled region 23a connects to a source electrode film 58a so as to have the same electric potential as a source region 64. When a reverse bias is applied between a base region 32a and a conductive layer 12, a reverse bias is also applied between the embedded region 24 and the conductive layer 12; and therefore, depletion layers spread out together and a withstanding voltage is increased.

  • Patent number: 7135718
    Abstract: A semiconductor device having improved breakdown voltage is provided. A diode device of the present invention includes relay diffusion layers provided between guard ring portions. Therefore, a depletion layer expanded outward from the guard ring portions except the outermost one reaches these relay diffusion layers, and then the outer guard ring portions. The width of the distance between the guard ring portions is shorter where the relay diffusion layers are provided. For the width of the relay diffusion layers, the depletion layer reaches the outer guard ring portions with a lower voltage than the conventional structure.
