  • High-Voltage Electron Injection Enhanced TC-LIGBT on 1.5- $\mu \text{m}$ -Thin SOI Layer for Reducing the Forward Voltage Drop
    IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices, 2016
    Co-Authors: Zhuo Yang, Hui Yu, Jincheng Zhou
    Abstract:

    In this paper, a new high-Voltage electron injection enhanced tridimensional channel lateral insulated gate bipolar transistor (EIETC-LIGBT) on 1.5- $\mu \text{m}$ -thin silicon-on-insulator (SOI) layer is proposed to reduce the Forward Voltage Drop. Based on the previous TC-LIGBT we have proposed, an extra floating p-layer is added at the emitter side of the proposed EIETC-LIGBT. The region locating between the separated p-body cells and the floating p-layer is the high doped n-type electron injection efficiency modulation (EIEM) region. Above the EIEM region, several virtual polygate structures connected to the emitter are fabricated between the separated p-body cells and the floating p-layer. The highly doped EIEM region can help the proposed structure to reduce the Forward Voltage Drop by increasing the electron injection efficiency. The virtual gate structures are contributed to the Forward-biased safe operating area of the proposed structure. By optimizing the doping of the EIEM region and the width of the virtual gate structures, an EIETC-LIGBT with the Forward Voltage Drop of 3.4 V at $V_{\mathrm {{GE}}}= 10$ V and $J_{\mathrm {{CE}}}= 100$ A/cm $^{\mathrm {{2}}}$ can be achieved, which has an improvement of 17% compared with the previous TC-LIGBT structure on the same thin SOI layer without sacrificing the current capability.

  • Fast‐switching‐speed, low‐ForwardVoltageDrop static induction (SI) thyristor
    Electrical Engineering in Japan, 1996
    Co-Authors: Mitsuhide Maeda, Takuji Keno, Yuji Suzuki
    Abstract:

    A static induction (SI) thyristor using a normally-off planar-gate structure in a low power class has been developed to be used as a power switching device in a three-phase inverter circuit. A 600 V-15 A class SI thyristor with very fast switching time (tgt, tgq) and low Forward Voltage Drop (VTM) was designed and created. This design was performed with a reasonable wafer structure (n−/n/p+), an n− base carrier concentration and thickness, and a gate structure (gate diffusion length and gate-gate pitch). Microscopic processing was used to obtain this SI thyristor. The performance trade-off between turn-off time and Forward Voltage Drop is controlled by a lifetime control process using proton irradiation that results in a very fast switching time with tgt of 500 ns and tgq of 500 ns with VTM of 1.5 V (at IT= 18 A). At a current level of IT = 18 A, the current density in the active area becomes 200 A/cm2, which indicates that the performance of the SI thyristor is superior to that of conventional IGBTs and MOSFETs.
