Description

Low-turn-off-loss IGBT device with enhanced electron injection effect
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductors, and particularly relates to an electron injection effect enhanced IGBT device with low turn-off loss.
Background
An Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) is a voltage-controlled power device, and since the IGBT has advantages of small driving power, reduced saturation voltage, and the like, it is widely used in various fields as a high-voltage switch.
The trench gate type structure IGBT can eliminate a parasitic Junction Field Effect Transistor (JFET) resistance of the planar gate type IGBT, and further reduce saturation voltage drop and on-state loss. In order to further reduce saturation voltage drop and on-state loss, injection-enhanced gate bipolar transistors (HIGT), electron injection-enhanced insulated gate bipolar transistors (IEGT), and wide-trench-gate-pitch or FP (Floating-Pbody) -IGBTs and the like have been proposed.
However, due to the negative gate capacitance effect of the FP-IGBT, the voltage generated in the FP structure changes when the device is turned on, and a displacement current is generated at the gate through the miller capacitance, which reduces the gate control capability of the IGBT and brings electromagnetic interference noise.

Meanwhile, due to the amplification of the hole current, the injection efficiency of the hole is improved, the doping concentration of the P + collector electrode can be further reduced, and the leakage current of the device is further reduced, so that the low leakage current and the high reliability of the device are ensured. The P + buried layer is beneficial to reducing the possibility of secondary breakdown between the N & lt- & gt drift region and the N & lt + & gt buffer region when the device is blocked in the forward direction. Because of the current concentration phenomenon of the traditional IGBT, a new electric field peak value is formed between the N-type drift region and the N-type buffer layer of the device, secondary avalanche breakdown occurs, the breakdown voltage of the device is reduced, and the P + buried layer enables hole current injected from the collector electrode to be more uniform, so that the possibility of avalanche secondary breakdown is reduced.
According to the scheme provided by the invention, the P-channel JFET composed of the P-base region, the second N + emitter and the second P + emitter is used, when the device is conducted in the forward direction, the second N + emitter is very high in potential, the second N + emitter is depleted towards the P-base region to form a depletion layer, and a hole channel disappears, so that holes injected from the P + collector are accumulated below the second N + emitter, the electron injection effect of the device is enhanced, and the saturation voltage drop of the device is reduced.
In addition, the super-junction structure in the N-drift region is formed by sequentially and alternately arranging the N-type doped columns and the P-type doped columns, so that depletion regions can be formed in the super-junction structure due to mutual charge depletion, and the breakdown voltage of the device is improved. Meanwhile, the length of the P-type doped column in the first direction is the same as that of the P + buried layer in the first direction, and is above the P + buried layer, so that most of the hole current can be directed to the P-type doped column. When the device is in a forward conduction state, a PN junction is formed between the P + buried layer and the N + buffer region, the potential on the N-type doped stand column in the first direction is higher than that of the P-type doped stand column, so that a transverse electric field of the super junction structure is stronger, holes in the N-type stand column are extracted and flow to the P-type stand column, accumulation is carried out in the P-base region or below the P-base region, the electron injection effect of the device is further enhanced, and the saturation voltage drop of the device is further reduced. When the device is in an off state, particularly when the device is turned off through negative gate voltage, the P-base region and the second N + emitter form a positive bias structure, a hole channel of the P-channel JFET structure is opened, a part of holes flow into the top emitter from the second P + emitter, holes in the P-base region can be extracted, and then turn-off loss of the device is reduced.

Meanwhile, due to the amplification of the hole current, the injection efficiency of the hole is improved, the doping concentration of the P + collector electrode can be further reduced, and the leakage current of the device is further reduced, so that the low leakage current and the high reliability of the device are ensured. The P + buried layer is beneficial to reducing the possibility of secondary breakdown between the N & lt- & gt drift region and the N & lt + & gt buffer region when the device is blocked in the forward direction. Because of the current concentration phenomenon of the traditional IGBT, a new electric field peak value is formed between the N-type drift region and the N-type buffer layer of the device, secondary avalanche breakdown occurs, the breakdown voltage of the device is reduced, and the P + buried layer enables hole current injected from the collector electrode to be more uniform, so that the possibility of avalanche secondary breakdown is reduced.
