    [0007] [0007] However, in additionally mounting the snubber circuit on the power conversion circuit in assembling the semiconductor device into the power conversion circuit, it is necessary to ensure a region for mounting the snubber circuit in the power conversion circuit.

    [9008] [9008] To overcome such a drawback, it may be possible to provide a semiconductor device in which a snubber-circuit is incorporated. In this case, however, it is necessary to design and manufacture a semiconductor device where a snubber capacitance of a snubber circuit is changed corresponding to electric equipment. Accordingly, there exists a drawback that it is difficult to provide semiconductor device in which a snubber-circuit is incorporated and is flexibly applicable to various electric equipment.
    [0009] [0009] The present invention has been made to overcome the above-mentioned drawback, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a semiconductor device in which a snubber-circuit is incorporated and can realize downsizing of a power conversion circuit into which the semiconductor device is assembled, and is flexibly applicable to various electric equipment. [Solution to Problem]

    [0011] [0011] A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device for manufacturing the semiconductor device is a method of manufacturing the semiconductor device according to the present invention, and includes in a following order: a semiconductor substrate preparation step in which the semiconductor substrate having the drift layer of the first conductive type is prepared; a trench forming step in which the plurality of trenches in stripe shapes as viewed in a plan view are formed; a first insulation film forming step in which each of the plurality of first insolation regions is formed on the bottom of each of the plurality of the trenches by forming the first insulation film on the bottom and the side walls of each of the plurality of trenches, and forming the gate insulation film on the side walls of each of the plurality of trenches; a first electrode forming step in which each of the plurality of first electrodes is formed in each of the plurality of trenches by way of the gate insulation film; a second insulation film forming step in which each of the second insulation films is formed on a surface of each of the plurality of first insulation films on the side walls of each of the plurality of trenches and on a surface of each of the plurality of first electrodes; a second electrode forming step in which each of the second electrodes is formed above each of the plurality of first electrodes in a state where each of the plurality of second electrode is spaced apart from each of the plurality of first electrode by way of the plurality of second insulation film; and a source electrode and drain electrode forming step which has a step in which the source electrode is formed on the surface of the semiconductor substrate on the one side, and a step in which the drain electrode is formed on the surface of the semiconductor substrate on said the other side. [Advantageous effects of the Invention]
    [0012] [0012] In the semiconductor device and the method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to the present invention, the semiconductor device includes the plurality of second electrodes above the first electrode in a spaced-apart manner from the first electrode, and at least one of the plurality of second electrodes is connected to the drain electrode. With such a configuration, it is possible to form a snubber circuit in which a parasitic capacitance between the second electrode and the source region can be used as a capacitor (a part of the capacitor), and an internal resistance of the second electrode itself is used as a resistance. Accordingly, in incorporating the semiconductor device in a power conversion circuit, it is unnecessary to additionally mount the snubber circuit. As a result, it is unnecessary to ensure a region for mounting the snubber circuit and hence, downsizing of the power conversion circuit can be realized.
    [0013] [0013] In the semiconductor device and the method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to the present invention, the second electrodes are formed in a strip shape as viewed in a plan view, and at least one of the plurality of second electrodes is connected to the drain electrode. With such a configuration, by limiting a length and a cross-sectional area of the second electrode or the number of second electrodes connected to the drain electrode or the like, a snubber capacitance (a resistance value of resistance and an electrostatic capacitance of a capacitor in the snubber circuit) can be adjusted in conformity with electric equipment. Accordingly, it is unnecessary to redesign or remanufacture a semiconductor device where a snubber capacitance of a snubber circuit is changed corresponding to electric equipment. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a semiconductor device which incorporates a snubber circuit flexibly applicable to various electric equipment.
    [0014] [0014] In the method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to the present invention, the method includes the first insulation film forming step in which the gate insulation film is formed before other insulation films are formed after the trench forming step (see FIG. 4{c)) and 5 hence, the gate insulation film can be directly formed on the side wall of the trench before other insulation films are formed. Accordingly, the gate insulation film which is required to satisfy uniformity in film thickness can be formed with high accuracy.

    [0017] [0017] [Embodiment 1]
    [0018] [0018]
    [0019] [0019] The drain lead line 162 is formed on both ends of the snubber electrode 160 having a strip shape as viewed in a plan view (see FIG. 2(a)). The drain lead line 162 is made of polysilicon containing a dopant at the same concentration as the snubber electrode 160 described later.
    [9020] [9020] The gate lead line 152 is formed on both ends of the gate electrode 150 having a strip shape as viewed in a plan view (see FIG. 2(a)). The gate lead line 152 is made of polysilicon containing a dopant at the same concentration as the gate electrode 150 described later.
    [0021] [0021] The semiconductor device 190 according to the embodiment | includes, in the cell region Al, as shown in FIG. 1(b), the semiconductor substrate 110, the source electrode 120, a drain electrode 130, a plurality of trenches 140, the gate electrodes 150 (first electrodes), the snubber electrodes 160 (second electrodes), first insulation regions 170, gate insulation films 172, second insulation regions 174, and the third insulation region 176.
    [0022] [0022] The semiconductor substrate 110 has: an n’-type low-resistance semiconductor layer 111; the n-type drift layer 112 formed on the low-resistance semiconductor layer 111 and having lower dopant concentration than the low-resistance semiconductor layer 111; the p-type base region 113 formed on a surface of the drift layer 112; and an n-type source region 114 disposed on a surface of the base region 113 and having higher dopant concentration than the drift layer 112.
    [0024] [0024] The source electrode 120 is formed on a surface of the semiconductor substrate 110 on one side by way of the third insulation region 176. The source electrode 120 is in contact with the source region 114 and the base region 113 via the metal plugs Pg in the contact holes formed in the third insulation region 176. The source electrode 120 is formed of, for example, an Al film or an Al alloy film (for example, an AlSi film). A thickness of the source electrode 120 is 1 pm to 10 um (for example, 3 um). The drain electrode 130 is formed on a surface of the semiconductor substrate 110 on the other side (on a surface of the low-resistance semiconductor layer 111). The drain electrode 130 is formed of a stacked layer film where Ti, Ni and Au (or Ag) are stacked in this order. A thickness of the drain electrode 130 is 0.2 pm to 1.5 um (for example, 1 pm).
    [0025] [0025] The plurality of trenches 140 are formed on one surface of the semiconductor substrate 110. Each of the plurality of trenches 140 has a bottom 142 disposed adjacently to the drift layer 112, and side walls 144 disposed adjacently to the drift layer 112, the base region 113 and the source region 114. A lowermost portion of the trench 140 is positioned deeper than a position of pn junction between the drift layer 112 and the base region 113.
    [0026] [0026]
    [0027] [0027] The snubber electrodes 160 are made of polysilicon containing a dopant at predetermined concentration. The snubber electrode 160 is disposed in the trench 140 in a state where the snubber electrode 160 is disposed above the gate electrode 150 in a spaced-apart manner so as to sandwich the second insulation region 174 between the snubber electrode 160 and the gate electrode 150. A depth position of a lower surface of the snubber electrode 160 is shallower than a depth position of a lowermost portion of a contact surface between the source region 114 and the wench 140. A depth position of an upper surface of the snubber electrode 160 may be equal to a height position of the surface of the semiconductor substrate 110 in the region where the trench 140 is not formed, or may be disposed at a depth position deeper than a height (depth) position of the surface of the semiconductor substrate 110. The depth position of the upper surface of the snubber electrode 160 may also be disposed at a height position above the height (depth) position of the surface of the semiconductor substrate 110.
    [0028] [0028] The snubber electrodes 160 are formed in stripes (a strip shape) as viewed in a plan view. A width (a width in a transverse direction in FIG. 1(b) which is a cross sectional view) of the snubber electrode 160 is smaller than a width of the gate electrode 150. The drain lead line 162 is formed on an end portion of the snubber electrode 160 having a strip shape (see FIG. 2{a)). The snubber electrodes 160 are electrically connected to the drain electrode 130 via the drain lead lines 162, the metal plugs Pg, the drain fingers DF, the drain pad DP, the metal plugs Pg, the n-type semiconductor layer 117 and the low-resistance semiconductor layer 111.
    [0029] [0029]
    [9030] [9030] The second insulation region 174 expands between the gate electrode 150 and the snubber electrode 160 so as to make the snubber electrode 160 spaced apart from the gate electrode 150. The second insulation region 174 also expands between the snubber electrode 160 and the side wall 144 of the trench 140 so as to make the snubber electrode 160 spaced apart from the side wall 144 of the trench 140. A film thickness to of the second insulation region 174 between the side wall 144 of the trench 140 and the snubber electrode 160 is larger than a film thickness tox of the gate insulation film 172, and is also larger than a film thickness tox: of the first insulation region
    [0031] [0031] The third insulation region 176 expands between the source electrode 120 and the snubber electrodes 160 so as to make the source electrode 120 spaced apart from the snubber electrodes
    [0032] [0032] The plurality of trenches 140, the gate electrodes 150 in the trenches 140, the snubber electrodes 160, and the source regions 114 are formed in stripes as viewed in a plan view. 0033]
    [0034] [0034] With such a configuration, as shown in FIG. 3(a), an electrostatic capacitance Cps: exists between the snubber electrode 160 and the source region 114. As shown in FIG. 1(a), the plurality of snubber electrodes 160 are formed in stripes and hence, the electrostatic capacitance Cpst exists in the respective snubber electrodes 160. Further, an electrostatic capacitance Cps: exists between the base region 113 and the drift layer 112. Accordingly, such a configuration is equivalent to a configuration shown in FIG. 3(b) where the electrostatic capacitance Cps; (a combined capacitance of electrostatic capacitances Cps; between the respective snubber electrodes 160 and the source region 114) and the electrostatic capacitance Cs: are disposed between the source electrode 120 and the drain electrode 130. These electrostatic capacitances (parasitic capacitances) form a capacitor C between the source electrode 120 and the drain electrode 130 (see FIG. 3(c)).
    [0035] [0035] The snubber electrode 160 is made of polysilicon containing a dopant at predetermined concentration, and the snubber electrodes 160 are formed in stripes as viewed in a plan view {see FIG. 1(a)). Accordingly, an internal resistance exists in the snubber electrode 160. A combined resistance of the inner resistances in the respective snubber electrodes 160 forms a resistance between the above-mentioned capacitor C and the drain electrode 130 {see FIG. 3(c)).
    [0036] [0036] From the above-mentioned configuration, it is safe to say that the semiconductor device 100 is a semiconductor device (MOSFET) which incorporates an RC snubber circuit where the capacitor C and the resistance R are connected to each other in series.
    [0037] [0037] Assuming an electric resistance ratio as p, a cross-sectional area of the snubber electrode 160 as S1, and a length (a length along a current path) of the snubber electrode 160 as i, as shown in FIG. 3(d), an internal resistance R1 of the snubber electrode 160 per one stripe is proportional to the electric resistance ratio p and the length 1 of the snubber electrode 160, and is inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area S1 of the snubber electrode 160. Accordingly, the cross- sectional area S1 (lateral width x height in FIG. 1(b)) of the snubber electrode 160 can be adjusted by adjusting a film thickness of the second insulation region 174. Further, the length 1 of the snubber electrode 160 having a strip shape can be also adjusted. Accordingly, a resistance value of the snubber electrode 160 per one stripe shape can be relatively easily adjusted. As a result, the resistance R of the snubber circuit can be relatively easily adjusted. The electric resistance ratio p also depends on dopant concentration at which a dopant is introduced into polysilicon and hence, the resistance value of the snubber electrode 160 can be adjusted also from this aspect.
    [0038] [0038] With respect to the capacitor of the snubber circuit, the electrostatic capacitance Cps1 becomes as follows. Assuming a dielectric constant of the second insulation region 174 as €, a length between the snubber electrode 160 and the source region 114, that is, a thickness of the second insulation region 174 as tox1, and an area of a region where the snubber electrode 160 and the source region 114 face each other as S2, as shown in FIG. 3(d), the electrostatic capacitance Cops; of the snubber electrode 160 per one stripe is inversely proportional to the film thickness tou of the second insulation region 174 and is proportional to the area S2 of the region where the snubber electrode 160 and the source region 114 face each other.
    [0039] [0039] Accordingly, a resistance value and an electrostatic capacitance of the snubber circuit in the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 can be easily adjusted and hence, a semiconductor device having high flexibility can be provided.
    [0040] [0040]
    [0041] [0041] (1) Semiconductor substrate preparation step First, a semiconductor substrate 110 is prepared (see FIG. 4(a)). The semiconductor substrate 110 has a n’-type low-resistance semiconductor layer 111, and a n-type drift layer 112 formed on the low-resistance semiconductor layer 111.
    [0042] [0042] (2) Trench forming step Next, a plurality of trenches 140 in stripe shapes as viewed in a plan view are formed on the drift layer 112 (see FIG. 4(b)).
    [0043] [0043] (3) First insulation film forming step Next, a first insulation film 170° is formed on one surface (a surface on a drift layer 112 side, such a surface including inner surfaces of the trenches 140) of the semiconductor substrate 110 {see FIG. 4(c)). Accordingly, a first insulation region 170 is formed on bottoms 142 of the plurality of respective trenches 140, and a gate insulation film 172 is formed on side walls 144 of the plurality of respective trenches. The first insulation film 170° is formed by a thermal oxidation method, for example.
    [0044] [0044] (4) Gate electrode forming step (first electrode forming step) Next, a gate electrode 150 is formed in the trench 140 by way of the first insulation region 170 and the gate insulation film 172. Specifically, first, polysilicon 150° having predetermined dopant concentration is formed on the whole region of a surface of the semiconductor substrate 110 on one side (see FIG. 4(d)). In this step, gate lead lines 152 are formed in a peripheral region A2. Then, the gate electrodes 150 are formed bv etching the polysilicon 150° (see FIG. 5(a)). The polysilicon 150° may be formed by forming polysilicon and thereafter, by injecting a p-type dopant (for example, boron) in the polysilicon by ion implantation. Alternatively, the polysilicon may be formed by growing polysilicon in a p-type dopant atmosphere (doped polysilicon).
    [0045] [0045] (5) Second insulation film forming step
    [0046] [0046] {6) Snubber electrode forming step (second electrode forming step) Next, snubber electrodes 160 are formed on the gate electrodes 150 in a spaced-apart manner from the gate electrodes 150. Specifically. first, polysilicon 160° is formed on the whole surface of the semiconductor substrate 110 on one side (see FIG. 5(c)). In this step, drain lead lines 162 are formed in the peripheral region A2. Next, the polysilicon 160° is removed by etching such that an upper surface of the polysilicon 160° is positioned at the same depth position as the surface of the semiconductor substrate 110 or at a depth position deeper than such a depth position. At the same time, the first insulation film 170° and the second insulation film 174” formed on the surface of the semiconductor substrate 110 are removed by etching (see FIG. 5(d)).
    [0047] [0047] (7) Source region and base region forming step Next, a p-type dopant (for example, boron) is injected into the semiconductor substrate 110 from a surface of the semiconductor substrate 110 on one side by ion implantation such that the p- type dopant reaches a predetermined depth (see FIG. 6(a)). Next, a base region 113 is formed by activating the p-type dopant. Then, an n-type dopant (for example, phosphorus) is injected into the semiconductor substrate 110 from one surface side of the semiconductor substrate 110 by ion implantation such that the n-type dopant reaches a predetermined depth (see FIG. 6(b)). Next, a source region 114 is formed by activating the n-type dopant.
    [0048] [0048] (8) Third insulation film forming step Next, a third insulation film (third insulation region 176) is formed on the surface of the semiconductor substrate 110 and on the second insulation regions 174 and the snubber electrodes 160 (see FIG. 6{c)). The third insulation film is formed by a CVD method, for example.
    [0049] [0049] (9) Contact forming step Next, a contact hole is formed between the trenches 140 disposed adjacently to each other in a state where the contact hole penetrates the third insulation region 176 and the source region 114 and reaches the base region 113 (see FIG. 6(d)). In this step, in the peripheral region A2, contact holes which bring the gate lead lines 152 formed on end portions of the gate electrodes 150 and gate fingers into contact with each other, contact holes which bring the drain lead lines 162 formed on end portions of the snubber electrode 160 and the drain fingers (drain pads) into contact with each other, and contact holes which bring the drain pads DP and the n-type semiconductor layers 117 into contact with each other are respectively formed.
    [0050] [0050] (10) Source electrode and drain electrode forming step Next, an Al-Cu based metal film is formed on surfaces of the third insulation region 176 and the metal plugs Pg by a sputtering method, and a source electrode 120, the drain pad DP and the drain fingers DF, and the gate pad GP and gate fingers GF are formed (see FIG. 7(b)). Accordingly, the source electrode 120 is electrically connected to the source region 114 and the base region 113 via the metal plugs Pg, the drain fingers DF and the drain pad DP are electrically connected to the snubber electrodes 160 via the metal plug Pg, and the gate fingers GF and the gate pad GP are connected to gate electrodes 150 via the metal plugs Pg. A multi-layered metal film formed of Ti, Ni and Au {or Ag) or the like is formed on the surface of the low-resistance semiconductor layer 111 thus forming a drain electrode 130 (see FIG. 7(c)). In the peripheral region, the drain electrode 130 is connected to the drain pad DP via the n-type semiconductor layers 117 and the metal plugs Pg. Accordingly, in a state where the drain electrode 130 is formed, the snubber electrodes 160 are connected to the drain electrode 130 via the drain lead line 162, the drain finger DF, the drain pad DP, and the semiconductor substrate 110 (drift layer 112).
    [0051] [0051] The semiconductor device according to the embodiment 1 is manufactured in accordance with the above-mentioned steps.

The semiconductor substrate 810 has an n-type low-resistance semiconductor layer 811, an n-type drift layer 812 disposed adjacently to the low-resistance semiconductor layer 811, a p-type base region 813 disposed adjacently to the drift layer 812, and an n-type source region 814 disposed adjacently to the base region 813. The gate electrode 850 is disposed in the trench 840. Side wall portions of the gate electrode 850 face the base region 813 by way of the gate insulation films 872. A shield electrode 890 is disposed in the trench 840, and is positioned below the gate electrode 850. The insulation region 878 expands between the gate electrode 850 and the shield electrode 890, and expands along the side walls and a bottom of the trench 840 so as to make the shield electrode 890 spaced apart from the side walls and the bottom of the trench 840.
    [0054] [0054] The semiconductor device 800 according to the comparative example can be manufactured by a method described hereinafter, for example. That is, the method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to the comparative example includes in the following order: a first step of preparing the semiconductor substrate 810 (see FIG. 9(a)); a second step of forming a plurality of trenches 840 in stripes as viewed in a plan view on the semiconductor substrate 810 (see FIG. 9(b)); a third step of forming a first insulation film 878° on bottom surfaces and side walls of the plurality of trenches 840 {see FIG. 9(c)); a fourth step of forming polysilicon 890" on the whole surface of the semiconductor substrate 810 on one side (see FIG. 9(d)), and forming shield electrodes 890 in the trenches 840 by way of the first insulation film 878° by etching the polysilicon 890° while leaving a portion of the polysilicon 890° in each trench 840 (see FIG. 10(a)); a fifth step of forming a second insulation film 870" on the whole semiconductor substrate 810 {see FIG. 10(b)); a sixth step of etching the first insulation film 878’ and the second insulation film 870° while leaving the first insulation film 878” and the second insulation film 870° only on the shield electrodes 890 (see FIG. 10(c)); a seventh step of forming a gate insulation film 872 on side walls of an upper portion of each trench 840 by forming an insulation film 872° on the surface of the semiconductor substrate 810 on one side (including the inner surfaces of the trench 840) (see FIG. 10(d)); an eighth step of forming the gate electrodes 850 by forming polysilicon 850° on the surface (including surfaces of the trench 840) of the semiconductor substrate 810 on one side (see FIG. 11(a)). and bv etching the polysilicon 850° while leaving the polysilicon 850° only in the trenches 840 (see FIG. 11{b)); a ninth step of forming the interlayer insulation films 876 {see FIG. 11(c)); and a tenth step of forming a source electrode 820 and a drain electrode 830 (see FIG. 11(d)).
    [0055] [0055] The gate insulation film which determines a threshold voltage of a device is required to be formed with high accuracy. In the method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to the comparative example, the first insulation film 878’ is formed in the third step (see FIG. 9(c)), the second insulation film 870° 1s formed in the fifth step (see FIG. 10(b)), then, the first insulation film 878’ and the second insulation film 870" are etched (over-etched, see FIG. 10(c)) in the sixth step, and the gate insulation film 872 is formed in the seventh step (see FIG. 10(d)). However, in the sixth step, there is also a case where the insulation films are etched more than necessary. In such cases, it is difficult to etch the first insulation film 878 and the second insulation film §70° with high accuracy thus giving rise to a drawback that it is difficult to form the gate insulation film 872 with high accuracy.
    [0056] [0056] On the other hand, according to the method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to the embodiment 1, the gate insulation film is formed before other insulation films are formed (see FIG. 4(c)) and hence, the gate insulation film can be directly formed on the side walls of the trenches before other insulation films are formed. Accordingly, the gate insulation film can be formed with high accuracy. 10057]
    [0058] [0058] According to the semiconductor device 100 and the method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to the embodiment 1, the snubber electrodes 160 are formed in stripes as viewed in a plan view, and at least one of the plurality of snubber electrodes is connected to the drain electrode 130. Accordingly. by selecting a length (a length in the vertical direction in FIG. 1(a)) and a cross-sectional area of the snubber electrode 160, and also by selecting whether or not each snubber electrode 160 is set to be a drain potential, a snubber capacitance can be adjusted corresponding to electric equipment. Accordingly, it is unnecessary to redesign or remanufacture a semiconductor device where a snubber capacitance of a snubber circuit is changed corresponding to electric equipment. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a semiconductor device which incorporates a snubber circuit flexibly applicable to various electric equipment.
    [0059] [0059] According to the method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to the embodiment 1, the method includes the first insulation film forming step in which the gate insulation film 172 is formed before other insulation films are formed after the trench forming step is performed (see FIG. 4(c)). Accordingly, the gate insulation film 172 can be directly formed on the side walls 144 of the trenches 140 before other insulation films are formed. Accordingly, the gate insulation film 172 which is required to exhibit high uniformity in film thickness can be formed with high accuracy without being affected by etching accuracies of other insulation films.
    [0060] [0060]
    [0061] [0061] Further, in the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1, the snubber electrode 160 is disposed at the position where the snubber electrode 160 faces the source region 114 with the second insulation region 174 sandwiched between the snubber electrode 160 and the source region 114. Accordingly, an electrostatic capacitance Cpst can be formed between the snubber electrode 160 and the source region 114 and hence, the electrostatic capacitance Cps: can be easily adjusted by adjusting a thickness of the second insulation region 174 between the snubber electrode 160 and the side wall 144 of the trench 140. As a result, in the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1, a snubber capacitance can be easily adjusted corresponding to electric equipment, and it is possible to provide a semiconductor device which incorporates a snubber circuit flexibly applicable corresponding to various electronic equipment.
    [0062] [0062] In the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1, a thickness of the second insulation region 174 disposed between the side wall 144 of the trench 140 and the snubber electrode 160 is larger than a thickness of the gate insulation film 172. Accordingly, the second insulation region 174 disposed between the side wall 144 of the trench 140 and the snubber electrode 160 can be used as a dielectric having a predetermined electrostatic capacitance suitable for forming a snubber circuit.
    [0063] [0063] In the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1, the snubber electrode 160 is made of polysilicon containing a dopant at predetermined concentration. Accordingly, a resistance value of the snubber electrode 160 can be adjusted by adjusting the dopant concentration and hence, a resistance value of a snubber circuit can be set to a desired resistance value.
    [0064] [0064] In the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1, the depth position of the lower surface of the snubber electrode 160 is shallower than the depth position of the lowermost portion of the contact surface between the source region 114 and the trench 140 and hence, the whole side surfaces of the snubber electrode 160 face the source region 114. Accordingly, the area S2 of the region where the snubber electrode 160 and the source region 114 face each other can be increased and hence, an electrostatic capacitance Cps: between the snubber electrode 160 and the source region 114 can be increased whereby an electrostatic capacitance necessary for forming a snubber circuit can be ensured.
    [0065] [0065] [Embodiment 2] A semiconductor device 101 according to an embodiment 2 basically has substantially the same configuration as the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment I. However, the semiconductor device 101 according to the embodiment 2 differs from the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 with respect to a point that the number of snubber electrodes connected to a drain electrode differs from the number of snubber electrodes connected to the drain electrode. That is, in the semiconductor device 101 according to the embodiment 2, unlike the embodiment 1 where all of the plurality of snubber electrodes 160 are connected to the drain electrode 130, some (a predetermined number of) of the plurality of snubber electrodes 160 are connected to the drain electrode 130 (see FIG. 12).
    [0066] [0066] In the embodiment 2, a half of the plurality of snubber electrodes 160 (every other snubber electrodes 160 arranged in stripes) are connected to a drain finger DF (see white dots on the drain finger DF in FIG. 12). The remaining snubber electrodes 160 are not in contact with the drain finger DF. In the embodiment 2, the half of the plurality of snubber electrodes 160 are in contact with the drain finger DF. However, the number of snubber electrodes 160 which are in contact with the drain finger DF can be set more than or less than the half of the plurality of snubber electrodes. In this manner, a snubber capacitance (resistance value and electrostatic capacitance) of a snubber circuit can be easily adjusted.
    [0067] [0067] In this manner, the semiconductor device 101 according to the embodiment 2 differs from the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 with respect to the number of snubber electrodes connected to the drain electrode. However, in the same manner as the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1, at least one (the half in the embodiment 2) of the plurality of snubber electrodes 160 is connected to the drain electrode. Accordingly, the semiconductor device 101 according to the embodiment 2 becomes a semiconductor device which incorporates the snubber circuit and can realize downsizing of a power conversion circuit. Further, a snubber capacitance can be adjusted to a value corresponding to electric equipment by selecting a length and a cross-sectional area of the snubber electrode 160 and by selecting whether or not the respective snubber electrodes 160 are set to a drain potential. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a semiconductor device which incorporates a snubber circuit flexibly applicable to various electric equipment.
    [0068] [0068] In the semiconductor device 101 according to the embodiment 2, only the predetermined number of snubber electrodes 160 are connected to the drain electrode 130 among the plurality of snubber electrodes 160 and hence, a resistance value and an electrostatic capacitance of the snubber circuit can be adjusted by adjusting the number of snubber electrodes 160 connected to the drain electrode 130. Accordingly, the semiconductor device 101 according to the embodiment 2 becomes a semiconductor device which incorporates a snubber circuit applicable to various electric equipment.
    [0069] [0069] The semiconductor device 101 according to the embodiment 2 has substantially the same configuration as the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 with respect to the points except for the number of snubber electrodes connected to the drain electrode. Accordingly, the semiconductor device 101 according to the embodiment 2 directly acquires the corresponding advantageous effects found amongst all advantageous effects which the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 acquires.
    [0070] [0070] [Modification 1] A semiconductor device 102 according to a modification 1 basically has substantially the same configuration as the semiconductor device 101 according to the embodiment 2. However, the semiconductor device 102 according to the modification 1 differs from the semiconductor device 101 according to the embodiment 2 with respect to the configuration of source regions (see FIG. 13{a) and FIG. 13(b)). That is, in the modification 1, source regions 114 are not formed on a periphery of a trench 140 (see the trench 140 on a right side in FIG. 13(b)) which embraces the snubber electrode 160 which is not brought into contact with a drain finger DF (drain electrode), and the source regions 114 are formed on a periphery of a trench 140 (see the trench 140 on a left side in FIG. 13(b)) which embraces the snubber electrodes 160 which are brought into contact with the drain finger DF (drain electrode).
    [0071] [0071] In this manner, the semiconductor device 102 according to the modification 1 differs from the semiconductor device 101 according to the embodiment 2 with respect to the configuration of the source regions. However, in the same manner as the semiconductor device 102 according to the embodiment 2, at least one (a half in the modification 1) of the plurality of snubber electrodes 160 is connected to the drain electrode. Accordingly, the semiconductor device 102 according to the modification 1 becomes a semiconductor device which incorporates a snubber circuit, and can realize downsizing of a power conversion circuit. Further, it is unnecessary to redesign or remanufacture a semiconductor device where a snubber capacitance of a snubber circuit is changed corresponding to electric equipment. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a semiconductor device which incorporates a snubber circuit flexibly applicable to various electric equipment.
    [0072] [0072] In the trench 140 having the snubber electrode 160 which is connected to the drain electrode 130, a depletion layer extends toward a depth position deeper than the trench 140 in a depth direction. However, also in the trench 140 (see the trench on the right side in FIG. 13(b)) having the snubber electrode 160 which is not connected to the drain electrode 130, the depletion layer can be maintained at the deep depth position. Accordingly, although such a trench 140 does not have a function as a gate trench, the trench 140 functions as a so-called dummy trench.
    [0073] [0073] [Modification 2] A semiconductor device 1024 according to a modification 2 basically has substantially the same configuration as the semiconductor device 102 according to the modification 1. However, the semiconductor device 102a according to the modification 2 differs from the semiconductor device 102 according to the modification | with respect to the namber of snubber electrode which are brought into contact with a drain finger. That is, in the modification 2, all snubber electrodes 160 are connected to the drain finger DF (see FIG. 14(a)). In such a configuration, although a trench 140 around which source regions 114 are not formed (see the trench on a right side in FIG.
    [0074] [0074] In this manner, the semiconductor device 102a according to the modification 2 differs from the semiconductor device 102 according to the modification 1 with respect to the number of snubber electrodes which are brought into contact with the drain finger. However, in the same manner as the semiconductor device 102 according to the modification 1, at least one (a half in the modification 2) of the plurality of shubber electrodes 160 are connected to the drain electrode.
    [0075] [0075] [Embodiment 3] A semiconductor device 103 according to an embodiment 3 basically has substantially the same configuration as the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 or the semiconductor device 101 according to the embodiment 2 (hereinafter referred to as the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 or the like). However, the semiconductor device 103 according to the embodiment 3 differs from the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 or the like with respect to a point that the semiconductor device 103 according to the embodiment 3 has a shield gate structure. That is, the semiconductor device 103 according to the embodiment 3 is a semiconductor device having shield electrodes 190 (a semiconductor device having a shield gate structure) (see FIG. 15). The shield electrode 190 is disposed in a trench 140, is disposed between a gate electrode 150 and a bottom of the trench 140, is spaced apart from the trench 140 and a source electrode 120, and is connected to a source electrode 120 (or a gate electrode). In the embodiment 3, the shield electrode 190 is connected to the source electrode. However, the shield electrode 190 may be connected to the gate electrode. In this case, the shield electrode 190 and the gate electrode 150 are spaced apart from each other in the trench 140, and are electrically connected to each other via a gate finger GF disposed outside the trench 140.
    [0076] [0076] In the embodiment 3, the semiconductor device 103 includes fourth insulation regions 178. The fourth insulation region 178 expands between the shield electrode 190 and the gate electrode 150 so as to make the gate electrode 150 spaced apart from the shield electrode 190, and the fourth insulation region 178 expands between the gate electrode 150 and the side walls 144 of the trench 140 so as to make the gate electrode 150 spaced apart from the side walls 144 of the trench 140.
    [0077] [0077] In this manner, the semiconductor device 103 according to the embodiment 3 differs from the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 or the like with respect to a point that the semiconductor device 103 according to the embodiment 3 has the shield gate structure.
    [0078] [0078] The semiconductor device 103 according to the embodiment 3 includes the shield electrode 190 in the trench 140. The shield electrode 190 is disposed between the gate electrode 150 and the bottom of the trench 140, is spaced apart from the bottom 142 of the trench 140, the side walls 144 of the trench 140, and a gate electrode 150, and is connected to the gate electrode 150 or the source electrode 120 and hence, gate-drain capacitance Con is reduced. Accordingly, a gate charge current amount and a gate discharge current amount are reduced so that a switching speed can be increased.
    [0079] [0079] Further, the semiconductor device 103 according to the embodiment 3 includes a fourth insulation region 178. The fourth insulation region 178 expands between the shield electrode 190 and the gate electrode 150 so as to make the gate electrode 150 spaced apart from the shield electrode 190, and the fourth insulation region 178 expands between the gate electrode 150 and the side walls 144 of the trench 140 so as to make the gate electrode 150 spaced apart from the side walls 144 of the trench 140. Accordingly, a distance from a corner portion of the trench 140 where electric field concentration is liable to occur to the gate electrode 150 can be increased, and an electric field can be attenuated by the fourth insulation region 178. As a result, a withstand voltage of the semiconductor device 103 according to the embodiment 3 can be increased.
    [0080] [0080] The semicondactor device 103 according to the embodiment 3 has substantially the same configuration as the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 or the like with respect to the points except for the point that the semiconductor device 103 has the shield gate structure. Accordingly, the semiconductor device 103 according to the embodiment 3 directly acquires the corresponding advantageous effects found amongst all advantageous effects which the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 or the like acquires.
    [0081] [0081] [Embodiment 4] A semiconductor device 104 according to an embodiment 4 basically has the same configuration as the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 or the like.
    [0082] [0082] In this manner, the semiconductor device 104 according to the embodiment 4 differs from the semiconductor device 190 according to the embodiment 1 or the like with respect to the point that the semiconductor device 104 has the SJ structure. However, in the same manner as the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 or the like, at least one of the plurality of the snubber electrodes 160 is connected to the drain electrode. Accordingly, the semiconductor device 104 according to the embodiment 4 becomes a semiconductor device which incorporates a snubber circuit and can realize downsizing of a power conversion circuit. Further, a snubber capacitance can be adjusted to a value corresponding to electric equipment by selecting a length and a cross-sectional area of the snubber electrode 160 and by selecting whether or not the respective snubber electrodes 160 are set to a drain potential. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a semiconductor device which incorporates a snubber circuit flexibly applicable to various electric equipment.
    [0083] [0083] According to the semiconductor device 104 according to the embodiment 4, the SJ structure is formed of the n-type column region 115 and the p-type column region 116 and hence, it is possible to provide a semiconductor device having small ON resistance while maintaining a withstand voltage.
    [0084] [0084] The semicondactor device 104 according to the embodiment 4 has substantially the same configuration as the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 or the like with respect to the points except for the point that the semiconductor device 104 has the SJ structure. Accordingly, the semiconductor device 104 according to the embodiment 4 directly acquires the corresponding advantageous effects found amongst all advantageous effects which the semiconductor device 100 according to the embodiment 1 or the like acquires.
