Abstract

The invention relates to a reverse conducting semiconductor device and a manufacturing method of the reverse conducting semiconductor device. Provided is a reverse-conducting semiconductor device having high latch-up tolerance and low recovery loss while avoiding a significant increase in manufacturing cost. The semiconductor substrate (50) has a first main surface (F1) and a second main surface (F2). The base contact layer (14) is disposed between the base layer (15) and the first main surface (F1) and constitutes a part of the first main surface (F1). The anode contact region (24) is disposed between the anode layer (25) and the first main surface (F1), constitutes a part of the first main surface (F1), and has a second conductivity-type impurity concentration peak higher than that of the anode layer (25). The anode contact region (24) includes a first anode contact layer (24b) having a lower net concentration than the base contact layer (14) and a higher first conductivity type impurity concentration than the base contact layer (14).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a reverse conduction type semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the reverse conduction type semiconductor device. Background technique [0002] For power modules that perform variable-speed control of three-phase motors in fields such as general-purpose inverters and AC servos, from the viewpoint of energy saving, insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBT: Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) and freewheeling diodes are used. In this case, compared with using both a semiconductor device as an IGBT and a semiconductor device as a freewheel diode (diode for reverse conduction), by using a reverse conduction type semiconductor device having an IGBT region and a diode region, That is, the reverse conducting IGBT (RC-IGBT: Reverse Conducting IGBT), which can reduce the area occupied by the IGBT and the diode in the power module. Therefore, the power module can be downsized. [0003] For example, International Pu...
