  • Patent number: 11424331
    Abstract: A power semiconductor device for improving a hot carrier injection is provided. A drain field plate is introduced at one side of a drain in a dielectric trench and connected to a drain electrode, having identical electric potential, thereby improving hole injection effects at a drain side of the dielectric trench. A shield gate field plate is introduced at one side of a source electrode in the dielectric trench and is connected to the source electrode or ground, thereby forming a shield gate. While decreasing gate drain parasitic capacitance Cgd, electron injection effects at a source electrode side of the dielectric trench are improved. With a trench etching method, the improvement of hot carrier injection can also be achieved by making carriers avoid a side wall of the dielectric trench on a path.

  • Patent number: 11211486
    Abstract: A power MOS device with low gate charge and a method for manufacturing the same. The device includes an M-shaped gate structure, which reduces the overlapped area between control gate electrode and split gate electrode. A low-k material is introduced to reduce dielectric constant of the isolation medium material. The combination of the M-shaped gate structure and low-k material can reduce parasitic capacitance Cgs of the device, thereby increasing switching speed and reducing switching losses.

  • Publication number: 20210305051
    Abstract: A metal wiring method for reducing gate resistance of a narrow control gate structure, wherein the gate structure is etched with first gate electrodes and second gate electrodes at regular intervals and kept with complete gate electrodes at regular intervals, thereby constituting a structure in which the first and second gate electrodes and the complete gate electrodes are spaced apart. A first contact hole is etched on the complete gate electrode to draw out metal as a first metal layer. A second contact hole is etched on a source region and a split gate to draw out metal as a second metal layer. These two metal layers are separated by a dielectric layer. A multi-point contact of the first layer of metal with the gate electrode in a Y direction reduces the gate resistance caused by an excessively long path in the Y direction of a control gate electrode.

  • Patent number: 10720524
    Abstract: A split-gate enhanced power MOS device includes a substrate and an epitaxial layer formed on an upper surface of the substrate. A control gate trench is provided in the epitaxial layer. The control gate trench includes a gate electrode and a split-gate electrode. The gate electrode includes a first gate electrode and a second gate electrode. The first gate electrode and the second gate electrode are located in an upper half portion of the control gate trench and are separated by a first dielectric layer. The first gate electrode and the second gate electrode are located above the split-gate electrode and are separated from the split-gate electrode by a second dielectric layer. The first gate electrode and the second gate electrode are separated from a body region in the epitaxial layer by a gate dielectric.
