| 20100052090 | SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - The invention is directed to reduction of a manufacturing cost and enhancement of a breakdown voltage of a PN junction portion abutting on a guard ring. An N− type semiconductor layer is formed on a front surface of a semiconductor substrate, and a P type semiconductor layer is formed thereon.

Then, a plurality of grooves, i.e., a first groove, a second groove and a third groove are formed from the insulation film to the middle of the N− type semiconductor layer in the thickness direction thereof. The plurality of grooves is formed so that one of the two grooves next to each other among these, that is closer to an electronic device, i.e., to an anode electrode, is formed shallower than the other located on the outside of the one.

| 20090309194 | MESA TYPE SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND MAUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF - This invention is directed to solving problems with a mesa type semiconductor device, which are deterioration in a withstand voltage and occurrence of a leakage current caused by reduced thickness of a second insulation film on an inner wall of a mesa groove corresponding to a PN junction, and offers a mesa type semiconductor device of high withstand voltage and high reliability and its manufacturing method. After the mesa groove is formed by dry-etching, wet-etching with an etching solution including hydrofluoric acid and nitric acid is further applied to a sidewall of the mesa groove to form an overhang made of the first insulation film above an upper portion of the mesa groove. The overhang serves as a barrier to prevent the second insulation film formed in the mesa groove and on the first insulation film around the mesa groove beyond an area of the overhang from flowing toward a bottom of the mesa groove due to an increased fluidity resulting from a subsequent thermal treatment. As a result, the inner wall of the mesa groove corresponding to the PN junction is covered with the second insulation film thick enough to secure a desired withstand voltage and to reduce a leakage current. | 12-17-2009 |

A stable protection film made of a thermal oxide film is formed on the inner wall of the mesa groove in the mesa type semiconductor device to cover and protect the PN junction, and an insulation film having negative electric charges is formed to fill a space in the mesa groove covered with the thermal oxide film so that an electron accumulation layer is not easily formed at an interface between an N | 12-17-2009 |

| 20090206376 | SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A conventional semiconductor device has a problem that, when a vertical PNP transistor as a power semiconductor element is used in a saturation region, a leakage current into a substrate is generated. In a semiconductor device of the present invention, two P type diffusion layers as a collector region are formed around an N type diffusion layer as a base region. One of the P type diffusion layers is formed to have a lower impurity concentration and a narrower diffusion width than the other P type diffusion layer. In this structure, when a vertical PNP transistor is turned on, a region where the former P type diffusion layer is formed mainly serves as a parasite current path. Thus, a parasitic transistor constituted of a substrate, an N type buried layer and a P type buried layer is prevented from turning on, and a leakage current into the substrate is prevented. | 08-20-2009 |
