- IGBT insulated gate bipolar transistor having an insulated gate structure
- the present invention relates to a power conversion apparatus.
- the IGBT is a switching element that controls the current flowing between the collector and the emitter by applying a voltage to the gate electrode.
- IGBTs can control a wide range of power from tens of watts to hundreds of thousands of watts, and switching frequency ranges from tens of hertz to over a hundred kilohertz, so low-power devices such as air conditioners and high-power devices such as railways and steelworks Used up to. These power devices are strongly required to reduce the conduction loss and switching loss of the IGBT in order to increase the efficiency and miniaturization of the system.
- the conduction loss is effective in reducing the voltage drop (ON voltage) at the time of ON, and can be reduced as the concentration of minority carriers accumulated in the drift layer increases. Further, the turn-off loss is smaller as the accumulated minority carrier concentration is lower, and there is a trade-off relationship between the on-voltage and the turn-off loss. In order to improve the trade-off, it is effective to enhance the IE (electron injection promotion) effect, but the characteristics of the IGBT are approaching the limit, and it is difficult to further improve the characteristics.
- IE electron injection promotion
- Patent Document 1 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-268363 discloses a four-terminal IGBT structure as shown in FIG.

- the high concentration n + layer 25 is operated during turn-off, minority carrier accumulation can be reduced and tail current can be reduced, so that turn-off loss can be reduced.
- it since it operates as an IGBT when it is on and operates as a MOSFET with a fast switching speed when it is turned off, the trade-off between the on voltage and the turn-off loss can be improved.
- the IGBT structure shown in FIG. 15 has a problem that the jumping voltage between the collector and the emitter is large because it operates as a MOSFET when it is off. Further, since there is no hole injection while the high-concentration n + layer 25 is operated, there is a problem that conduction loss immediately before turn-off increases.
- the present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor device capable of suppressing an increase in jumping voltage and improving a trade-off between on-voltage and turn-off loss, and power conversion using the same. Is to provide a device.

- n ⁇ substrate 1, p-type base layer 2 selectively formed on the surface of n ⁇ substrate 1, and n + -type formed on the surface of p-type base layer.
- a gate electrode 6 is provided on the surface of the p-type base layer 2 sandwiched between the source layers 3 via a gate oxide film 5.
- the p + -type high-concentration emitter layer 7 and the p--type low-concentration emitter layer 8 are disposed on the opposite surface of the n ⁇ substrate 1, and the n ⁇ layer 1 is interposed between them. By interposing a part, they are separated from each other as individual p-type conductivity type semiconductor layers. Separate electrodes 9 and 10 are electrically connected to the p + -type high concentration emitter layer 7 and the p ⁇ -type low concentration emitter layer 8, respectively. That is, this IGBT is a four-terminal element.
- FIG. 2 shows an example of a circuit using the IGBT of FIG. 1, in which the collector terminal c1 corresponds to a terminal connected to the p + type high concentration emitter layer 7 of FIG. 1, and the terminal c2 is a p ⁇ type low concentration emitter layer. 8 corresponds to the terminal connected to 8.
- the collector terminal c2 of the IGBT 201 is connected to the output terminal 209 (C) via the MOSFET 202 serving as a switch, and the other collector terminal c1 is directly connected to the output terminal 209 (C).
- the collector terminal c1 may be connected to the output terminal 209 (C) via a switching element different from the MOSFET 202, and the switching element is preferably an insulated gate type element such as MOSFET or IGBT. Further, instead of MOSFET 202, another insulated gate control type element such as IGBT may be used.
- a voltage for example, 15V
- a voltage for example, 0V
- the collector terminal c1 and the emitter terminal 210 Current is passed between Accordingly, since minority carriers (holes) are highly injected from the p + -type high-concentration emitter layer 7 connected to the terminal c1 into the n ⁇ substrate 1, conductivity modulation is promoted and the on-voltage is reduced.
- An ON signal is input to the terminal G2 from several ⁇ s before the terminal G1 (IGBT 201) is turned off, and a current flows mainly between the collector terminal c2 and the emitter terminal 210.
- the collector terminals c1 and c2 are both connected to the output terminal 209 (C), but the p-type low-concentration emitter layer 8 having a lower impurity concentration has a lower built-in voltage. 8 (terminal c2) becomes easy to flow. For this reason, the minority carriers injected from the collector are reduced and the charge accumulated in the n ⁇ substrate 1 is reduced, so that the turn-off loss can be reduced. Further, since it operates as a low-injection IGBT when it is off, a tail current is generated, and an increase in jumping voltage between the collector and the emitter can be suppressed.
- FIG. 3 shows a driving sequence of the gate electrode 6 (terminal G1) and the gate electrode 212 (terminal G2) of the MOSFET 202.
- Period 1 is a period in which minority carriers are highly injected. A voltage at which the MOS transistor 204 is turned on is input to the terminal G1, and a voltage at which the MOSFET 202 is turned off is input to the terminal G2. During this period, minority carriers are injected at a high rate, so that the on-voltage is smaller than in other periods.
- Period 2 is a period during which minority carriers are injected at a low rate, and an ON signal is input to the terminal G2 from 0.1 to 10 ⁇ s before the terminal G1 is turned off.
- Period 3 is a period in which the IGBT 201 is turned off. First, a voltage at which the IGBT 201 is turned off is input to the terminal G1, and a voltage at which the MOSFET 202 is turned on is input to the terminal G2.
- the terminal G2 receives an OFF signal during the period 3 in which the OFF signal is input to the terminal G1, and thereafter, only the terminal G1 is switched from OFF to ON, and the period 4 is shifted to.
- Period 4 is the same as period 1, and thereafter, the sequence of periods 1 to 3 is repeated. In the present embodiment, such a drive sequence can improve the trade-off between the on-voltage and the turn-off loss.
- FIG. 4 shows an example of the trade-off relationship between the on-voltage and the turn-off loss, and the jump-up voltage has the same magnitude.
- the figure shows a comparative example corresponding to FIG. 15 and the first embodiment.
- the turn-off loss of the present embodiment is reduced by 57% compared with the comparative example, and the characteristics are greatly improved.
- the collector and emitter are formed by forming the p + -type high concentration emitter layer 7 and the p ⁇ -type low concentration emitter layer 8 on the collector side and providing individual electrodes for each.
- the trade-off between the on-voltage and the turn-off loss can be improved while suppressing an increase in jumping voltage.

- the operation of the parasitic pnp bipolar transistor composed of the p + -type high concentration emitter layer 7, the n ⁇ substrate 1 (or the n buffer layer 12), and the p ⁇ type low concentration emitter layer 8 is suppressed. it can.
- the parasitic pnp transistor When the parasitic pnp transistor operates, it becomes difficult to control minority carrier injection by the external switching element 11 (switching between the p + -type high-concentration emitter layer 7 and the p--type low-concentration emitter layer 8), and the on-voltage and turn-off loss Affects the trade-off.
- the parasitic transistor operates when the external switching element 11 is turned on, since the minority carriers are highly injected from the p + -type high-concentration emitter layer 7, the amount of accumulated holes in the n ⁇ substrate 1 increases. Turn-off loss increases.
- the entire region sandwiched between the p + -type high concentration emitter layer 7 and the p ⁇ -type low concentration emitter layer 8 is the high concentration n + layer 13.
- the structure in which a part of the region sandwiched between the p ⁇ -type low-concentration emitter layer 8 is the high-concentration n + layer 13 can also suppress the operation of the parasitic transistor.
- the depth of the high concentration n + layer 13 may be shallower than that of the p + type high concentration emitter layer 7 and the p ⁇ type low concentration emitter layer 8.

- the operation of the parasitic pnp bipolar transistor can be performed without providing a high concentration n + layer, an insulating layer, or the like between the p + type high concentration emitter layer 7 and the p ⁇ type low concentration emitter layer 8. Can be suppressed.
- the hole diffusion distance Lp is obtained from the square root of the product of the hole diffusion coefficient Dp and lifetime ⁇ p, and the parasitic transistor operates when Lp is longer than the width ln of the base region.
- the cause is that holes injected from the emitter region (for example, p ⁇ -type low-concentration emitter layer 8) are not recombined and extinguished in the base region (n buffer layer 12 or n ⁇ substrate 1) but diffused to the collector region (for example, p This is to reach the + type high concentration emitter layer 7). Therefore, recombination annihilation occurs before the holes reach the collector region due to Lp shortening or ln increase, so that the operation of the parasitic transistor can be suppressed.

- the diffusion distance Lp can be shortened by shortening the lifetime ⁇ p, and can be controlled by introducing a lifetime killer on the collector side.
- Lifetime killer that recombines holes uses heavy metals such as gold and platinum, or irradiation damage caused by radiation such as electron beams, etc., thereby suppressing the operation of parasitic transistors even if ln is shortened to about 1 ⁇ m. it can.
