The invention relates to a fast-
recovery commutation 
diode used for 
high frequency electroplating and a production method thereof, wherein the fast-
recovery commutation 
diode has the 
high frequency property and is suitable for 30KHz / 2-5KA / (200-400)V 
high frequency electroplating with both 
high voltage and 
high current density. An N-type (100) radial 
single crystal silicon piece, which has specificresistance Rho n of 5-9 
Ohm-cm, 
diameter of 48-70 mm and thickness of 175-185 microns, is adopted; 
silicon piece 
diffusion is conducted, and double-surface once 
diffusion is carried out at temperature of 1250 DEG C; the 
diffusion piece detection is carried out; phosphorosilicate glass and 
borosilicate glass are used for absorption, the temperature is slowly lowered from 1250 DEG C to 1050 DEG C,the speed rate is 1 DEG C per minute, and isothermal absorption is carried out for 2-3 h; slow temperature reduction is continued till 
furnace temperature is reduced to 600 DEG C, then furnace delivery is carried out, and minority 
carrier lifetime Tao p is caused to reach 12-16 Mu S; 
platinum diffusion is carried out at low temperature so that the minority 
carrier lifetime Tao p is controlled to be 4-6 Mu S; 12 Mev 
electron irradiation is carried out so that the minority 
carrier lifetime Tao p of a base region is 0.9-1.1 Mu S; the two surfaces of the 
silicon piece are plated with 
titanium-
nickel-gold by means of vapor deposition and then undergo table-board spray sand molding, desanding, cleaning, 
corrosion, 
passivation protection, intermediate test, shell arrangement and packaging, and after tests testify qualification, the finished product is produced.
