However, to achieve the effective recombination of most holes in the N+ buffer layer, a thicker buffer layer (above 10 μm) is required, and the increase in the thickness of the buffer layer will lead to an increase in its conduction voltage drop

Abstract

The invention discloses an insulated gate bipolar transistor with a quantum dot structure. Including from bottom to top: drain, P + Substrate, N-type buffer layer, N-type quantum dot layer, N ‑ Base, P + Well, P base, N + Contact area, gate, gate dielectric layer and source. Since quantum dots (zero-dimensional materials) have a larger forbidden band width than high-dimensional materials, and the forbidden band width of quantum dots is strongly dependent on their size, and the quantum dots have different sizes, which will naturally form potential energy fluctuations , resulting in a large number of localized regions of carriers. When the device is turned off, the remaining carriers are localized in the quantum dot layer, which can effectively reduce the tail current and buffer layer thickness of the IGBT device, thereby reducing the switching time and conduction of the device pressure drop.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor power electronic devices, in particular to an insulated gate bipolar transistor with a quantum dot structure. Background technique [0002] Insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs), as the core electronic components in modern power electronic circuits, are widely used in various fields such as transportation, communications, household appliances, and aerospace. [0003] IGBT is a new type of power electronic device composed of insulated field effect transistor (MOSFET) and bipolar junction transistor (BJT), which can be equivalent to a MOSFET driven by BJT. The IGBT combines the MOSFET structure and the working mechanism of the BJT. It not only has the advantages of easy driving of the MOSFET, low input impedance, and fast switching speed, but also has the advantages of large on-state current density, low conduction voltage, low loss, and good stability of the BJT. Therefore, IGBT devices...
