Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device suppresses loss of vacuum in a chamber of an ion implanter, sag of a resist mask pattern for ion implantation, and producing a resist residue after ashing. First ion implanting process implants n-type impurity to form n + impurity layer on the whole back surface of n − semiconductor wafer. A resist mask on the back surface of the wafer covers a part corresponding to where n + cathode layer will be formed. A second ion implanting process implants p-type impurity using the resist mask to form p + impurity layer in the interior of the n + impurity layer. Second ion implanting process is split into two or more times. The dose of p-type impurity in second ion implanting process is greater than that of n-type impurity in first ion implanting process. The resist mask is removed, and p + the n + impurity layers activated.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device comprising the steps of: performing a first ion implanting process for implanting an n-type impurity with a first dose on a surface of a semiconductor wafer to form an n-type impurity layer on the surface of the semiconductor wafer; coating resist on the surface of the side where the n-type impurity layer is formed in the semiconductor wafer; exposing the semiconductor wafer selectively to pattern the res…
