摘要:	自1990年起，各類偵測器使用矽晶圓製造已用於許多高能實驗中。由於矽偵測器在能量與位置的量測擁有很高的分辨度，因此在高能實驗中漸漸變成主流探測器。隨著科技的進步，偵測器晶圓也從4英吋變成6/8英吋，但晶圓面積越大良率就越低，因此施作成本也大幅上升，使得通過實際生產來驗證矽探測器的新設計逐漸變得不可行。對於矽探測器新的結構設計，TCAD（Technology Computer Aided Design）模擬軟體是進行研究與驗證的重要工具。在本研究中，我們使用Synopsys TCAD Sentaurus模擬軟體來研究提高擊穿電壓的重要結構 guard ring 在矽探測器不同結構設計的結果。由於TCAD模擬軟體最初是為了小結構的模擬（大約幾十μm），為了模擬大的矽探測器結構（大約幾百μm）這裡使用鏡射法來建立結構。除此之外，在模擬中網格配置對於模擬結果的穩定性、模擬時間和電腦使用資源的優化也很重要。 Synopsys TCAD 模擬主要分成 Sprocess 與 Sdevices 兩個部分。Sprocess 為半導體工藝模擬的部分，主要用於建立矽探測器的結構。 Sdevices 為電性模擬的部分，主要用於尋找矽探測器在不同條件下的電性及其分佈。在不同 guard ring 設計的結構中，擊穿電壓的模擬結果也與有著相同結構設計的實際矽探測器測量結果進行了比較，其結果在大多數的設計中都是相似的。對於部分模擬與測量之間有落差的可能原因也已透過模擬進行了研究和確認。最後也找出了擁有最佳擊穿電壓的guard ring設計。 ;The various types of silicon detector have been used in high energy experiments since 1990. Because of the good resolution in both position and energy measurements, the silicon detector is the major detector in all high energy experiments. With the advance in the semiconductor technology, the size of wafer used in the production of silicon has been increased from 4 inches to 6/8 inches. The production cost is also increased dramatically. Now it is not feasible to verify the new design of silicon detector via the actual silicon detector production. The TCAD (Technology Computer Aided Design) Sentaurus simulation software is an important tool to study and verify the new design of silicon detector. In this study, we use Synopsys TCAD simulation software to study different guard ring designs of silicon detector, which is an important structure to improve the breakdown voltage. Because the TCAD simulation software is originally designed to simulate a small structure (tens μm), the mirroring method is used in order to simulate a large silicon detector structure (hundreds μm). In addition, the grid design in the simulation is important to optimize among the stability of simulation results, simulation time and the usage of computer resource. There are two major processes in the Synopsys TCAD simulation; Sprocess is used to build the structure of silicon detector and simulate the semiconductor processes. Sdevices is to find electrical properties of silicon detector under different conditions and their distribution. Simulation results of the breakdown voltage in different guard ring designs are also compared with measurements of actual silicon detectors with the same design. They are consistent in most of designs. Possible reasons about discrepancies between the simulation and the measurement have been studied and confirmed by the simulation. The best guard ring design in terms of breakdown voltage is given.
