Problems solved by technology

However, in the blocking state, the potential of the P column will increase with the increase of the collector voltage, and the electric force lines emitted by the ionized donor impurities in the N column area will tend to terminate in the P well area and the gate electrode, making the N column area The peak value of the reverse-biased PN junction electric field with the P well region increases, causing premature breakdown, and the blocking voltage drops severely

Embodiment 1

[0028] Such as image 3 A super junction insulated gate bipolar transistor is shown, including a collector structure, a drift region, an emitter structure, a trench gate structure and a pinch-off structure, wherein the drift region is located above the collector structure, the emitter structure, the trench gate structure and pinch-off structures located above the drift region;

[0029] The collector structure of the collector structure includes a P-type collector layer 4 and an N-type buffer layer 5 located on the upper surface of the P-type collector layer 4; the collector 1 is drawn from the lower surface of the P-type collector layer 4;

[0030] The drift region includes an N-type drift region 6 and a P-type drift region 7, and the P-type drift region 7 and the N-type drift region 6 form a super junction structure or a semi-super junction structure;

Embodiment 2

[0037] Such as Figure 4 As shown, the difference between this example and Example 1 is that there is a carrier storage layer 13 for blocking holes in this example, and the carrier storage layer 13 is in contact with the lower surface of the P-type well region 8, N The upper surface of the type drift region 6 is in contact with the carrier storage layer 13; its working mechanism is the same as that of embodiment 1, and the increased carrier storage layer further prevents holes from being collected by the emitter, reducing the forward conductivity Through pressure drop.

Embodiment 3

[0039] Such as Figure 5 As shown, the difference between this example and any one of Example 1 and Example 2 is that this example has three or more pinch-off grooves and P-type body contact areas 92 between the pinch-off grooves in the pinch-off structure; its working mechanism Same as Embodiment 1 or Example 2, the added pinch-off structure enables more hole extraction paths and lower turn-off loss.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of power semiconductors, and in particular relates to a high withstand voltage and low loss super junction power device. The device provided by the invention is characterized in that a pinch-off structure is arranged on a P-type drift region; the pinch-off structure is composed of pinch-off grooves and a P-type body contact region between the pinch-offgrooves; during forward conduction, the pinch-off structure pinches the middle P-type drift region, suppressing the collection of holes by the P-type drift region and improving the storage effect of carriers in the drift region; when the device is turned off, the P-type drift region is connected with an emitter through the P-type body contact region to be used as a hole extraction path to reduce the turn-off loss; when forward withstand voltage is applied, the P-type drift region contacts the emitter through the P-type body contact region, and the potential is 0; the P-type drift region has abetter auxiliary depletion effect; and the device has higher withstand voltage. Compared with a conventional super junction IGBT device, the device provided by the invention has lower on-voltage dropand better Von-Eoff discount. Compared with a P-column floating super junction IGBT device, the super junction IGBT device provided by the invention have higher forward withstand voltage.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a superjunction power device with high withstand voltage and low loss. Background technique [0002] Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) is a widely used semiconductor power device. It has both the advantages of high input impedance and simple driving of MOSFET, and the advantages of high current density and low turn-on voltage of BJT devices. The super junction is a voltage-resistant structure in which N-column regions and P-column regions are arranged alternately, which can enable the N-column region and P-column region to obtain a higher breakdown voltage under the condition of higher doping concentration. [0003] In the traditional super-junction IGBT, due to the large junction area between the N-column region and the P-column region, the minority carrier holes injected from the P-type collector into the N-column region are easily drawn away by the P-column, and...
