20140246755 | SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - Hydrogen atoms and crystal defects are introduced into an n− semiconductor substrate by proton implantation. The crystal defects are generated in the n− semiconductor substrate by electron beam irradiation before or after the proton implantation. Then, a heat treatment for generating donors is performed. The amount of crystal defects is appropriately controlled during the heat treatment for generating donors to increase a donor generation rate. In addition, when the heat treatment for generating donors ends, the crystal defects formed by the electron beam irradiation and the proton implantation are recovered and controlled to an appropriate amount of crystal defects. Therefore, for example, it is possible to improve a breakdown voltage and reduce a leakage current. | 09-04-2014 |
20140291723 | SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME - A method of producing a seminconductor device is disclosed in which, after proton implantation is performed, a hydrogen-induced donor is formed by a furnace annealing process to form an n-type field stop layer. A disorder generated in a proton passage region is reduced by a laser annealing process to form an n-type disorder reduction region. As such, the n-type field stop layer and the n-type disorder reduction region are formed by the proton implantation. Therefore, it is possible to provide a stable and inexpensive semiconductor device which has low conduction resistance and can improve electrical characteristics, such as a leakage current, and a method for producing the semiconductor device. | 10-02-2014 |

20150024556 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A semiconductor device includes an input electrode provided on a front surface of a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type and an output electrode provided on a rear surface of the semiconductor substrate. The device has reduced deterioration of electrical characteristics when manufactured by a method including introducing impurities into the rear surface of the semiconductor substrate; activating the impurities using a first annealing process to form a first semiconductor layer, which is a contact portion in contact with the output electrode, in a surface layer of the rear surface; radiating protons to the rear surface; and activating the protons radiated using a second annealing process to form a second semiconductor layer of the first conductivity type, which has a higher impurity concentration than the semiconductor substrate, in a region that is deeper than the first semiconductor layer from the rear surface of the semiconductor substrate. | 01-22-2015 |
