Abstract

Field-Plate (FP) MOSFET structure has field-plate and thick oxide inside each trench. Due to the field-plate effect, it can improve tradeoff between low drift layer resistance and high breakdown voltage. In this structure, wafer warpage is larger than that of conventional structure. It causes various problems, for example an error in vacuum adsorption or wafer handling. We predicted the warpage change in a newly designed FP-MOSFET by TCAD simulation, and studied the reason of the warpage peculiar to FP-MOSFET. Moreover, we made a countermeasure in some critical process steps, and controlled the wafer warpage until the end of process.
