One object of the present invention is, provides the preparation method of the supporting fast recovery diode of a kind of integrated gate commutated thyristor, comprises the steps:
1) carry out polishing to any one side of N-type silicon wafer, the burnishing surface of described N-type silicon wafer is chip anode face;

8) to step 7) obtained chip semi-finished product carry out moulding, preferably carry out the moulding of knot terminal, more preferably carry out table top moulding, and carry out conservation treatment, form complete chip;
9) to step 8) obtained complete chip carries out electron irradiation, obtains chip end-product.
On the one hand, present invention employs the proton irradiation technique of anode-side.
IGCT requires it is not only fast but also soft to the reverse recovery characteristic of supporting FRD, " soon " refers to that reverse recovery time trr is short, the length of trr is directly connected to switching loss and the operating frequency of device, and " soft " softness factor S when referring to Reverse recovery is greater than 0.8, otherwise in FRD reversely restoring process, the high dv/dt of easy generation and peak voltage, cause FRD and IGCT component failure.
Proton irradiation is the technology of shooting at the target after hydrogen atom ionization being accelerated, and can control the local minority carrier life-span of silicon wafer.Electron irradiation, for silicon wafer is placed in irradiation field, is bombarded by electronics, makes silicon wafer inside form complex centre, reaches the object controlling minority carrier life time.General FRD many employings electron irradiation, heavy metal doping process, the softness factor S of FRD after heavy metal doping or electron irradiation is generally less than 0.8.The present invention adopts proton irradiation technique, and the softness factor of the FRD after proton irradiation generally can be greater than 1.
The defect peak depth of proton irradiation changes with the change of irradiation energy, and the local minority carrier life time being easy to realize FRD device controls.By proton irradiation, chip minority carrier life time in a longitudinal direction can be made to be certain gradient distribution, instead of to be uniformly distributed, thus softness factor S when increasing device Reverse recovery.
When the region of proton irradiation is positioned at chip anode side, the most remarkable to the regulating action of FRD device softness, and required irradiation energy is less, reduces manufacturing cost while enabling device reach design parameter.Therefore, before chip anode low-temperature bonding technique, proton irradiation is carried out to chip, regulate the minority carrier life time of chip regional area, with the softness factor S of increased device.
On the other hand, present invention employs low-temperature bonding technique.
The supporting FRD of IGCT can produce high power loss in application process, and total head direct type FRD is by its structural limitations, and heat-sinking capability is limited, in application process, very easily causes device performance to decline because regional area is overheated, then loses efficacy.In order to reduce reverse recovery loss, total head direct type FRD needs the electron irradiation of larger dose usually, and its consequence the softness factor S of device cannot be adjusted to larger value, causes device easily to vibrate in reversely restoring process.The enhancing of low-temperature bonding type FRD heat-sinking capability, enables device bear larger reverse recovery loss, in order to try the softness factor S of device can be brought up to greater value, reaches the forward current rate of descent-di improving device
fthe object of/dt ability to bear.
Low-temperature bonding technique: under uniform temperature, pressure, together with being crimped onto chip anode face with the bonding face of molybdenum sheet.The voidage of this FRD bonded layer is zero, and the combination of anode molybdenum sheet and chip is more tight, has extremely strong heat-sinking capability, and chip does not exist local overheating phenomenon, and power loss is no longer the stumbling-block that its parameter is optimized further.In chip manufacturing, electron irradiation dosage can be reduced, with the softness factor S of further increased device, reduce the Reverse recovery crest voltage V of device
rM, and reduce the probability that vibration occurs device in reversely restoring process, thus improve the application reliability of device.
