Abstract

The invention provides a trench gate IGBT comprising a semiconductor substrate and a first structure. The first structure comprises first trench gate structures and a second trench gate structure located within the surface of the semiconductor substrate, wherein the second trench gate structure is located between the two first trench gate structures, the first trench gate structures are true gates, the second trench gate structure is a fake gate, and emitter metal is in contact with the second trench gate structure. An emitter metal contact region in the prior art is disposed between trenches but an emitter metal contact region in the present invention is not limited to the position between trenches, namely the emitter metal contact region contains a portion in contact with the fake gate so as to be enlarged. Such structure does not increase the distance between the grooves, and on the contrary, appropriately reduces the distance between the first trench gate structures and the second trench gate structure in order that the distance between the true gates and the fake gate is no longer affected by the minimum contact area of the emitter, thereby significantly reducing the on-state voltage drop of the trench gate IGBT.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor devices, in particular to a trench gate IGBT. Background technique [0002] Currently, the trade-off relationship between the conduction voltage drop and the blocking voltage of the trench gate bipolar transistor (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor, referred to as IGBT) is close to the limit. Relevant design structures to reduce the conduction voltage drop of trench gate IGBT include IEGT (Injection enhanced gate transistor), PNM-IGBT (Partially arrow mesa IGBT), dummy gate IGBT, etc., which mainly improve the performance of trench IGBT by reducing the trench spacing. conduction characteristics. However, in the traditional design, the emitter metal contact area can only be placed between the trenches, increasing the trench density will also reduce the emitter contact area, and in order to ensure the safe and reliable operation of the trench gate IGBT, and The emitter junction contact area must be inc...
