Definitions

• Each strip-shaped section of the emitter metallization is covered over the entire area with a region of the contact piece, e.g. a Mo lybdenum blank, directly connected.
• a region of the contact piece e.g. a Mo lybdenum blank
• the figure shows in cross section a disk-shaped semiconductor body of a GTO thyristor and the substance-wrong arrangement of a contact plate on the semiconductor body.
• the semiconductor body (I) consisting of a high-resistance, n-conducting central zone (1), an adjoining p-conducting zone (2, 3) and the emitter zone sections (4) embedded in the control base zone (2), shows this usual structure for a switchable semiconductor rectifier element.
• the two functional areas namely the control current area and the load current area, are each divided into strips, alternately arranged in succession and together form the one of the two main surfaces of the semiconductor body (I).
• Each strip-shaped part of the control current range, i.e. the base zone part (2a) lying between two adjacent emitter zone sections (4) is provided with a metallization (6).
• Emitter zone section (4) pn transition emerging on the surface 4.
• any structuring of an electrode of the semiconductor body can be achieved in a particularly simple manner in the case of components of the type mentioned at the outset, regardless of the dimensioning of the functional areas.
• the transverse resistance formed by the electrically insulated arrangement of the emitter metallization (8) therein between a contact point for the contact plate (12) and the line of symmetry of one of the adjacent emitter zones sections (4) is composed of the partial resistors R 1 and R 2 .
• the partial resistance R 1 arises when the semiconductor component is used in the section of the emitter metallization (8) between the edge of the second insulating layer (9) on the attachment (8c) and the edge of the first insulating layer (7) on the emitter zone section (4).
• the partial resistance R 2 results from the further section of the emitter metallization (8) in the subsequent current path up to the line of symmetry of this emitter zone section.
• the pattern of the emitter zone sections (4) is then produced using a masking process.
• the base zone parts (2a) are then provided with a metallization (6) with the aid of a further masking.
• the entire surface is then covered with a first insulating layer (7) e.g. covered with silicon nitride.
• all emitter zone sections are exposed to such an extent that the remaining first insulating layer (7) still covers the gate transition between a base zone part (2a) and the adjacent emitter zone section (4).
