Abstract

The present invention provides a high-voltage fast recovery diode structure, specifically a double-sided termination diode with a localized p+ doped region cathode structure, including an n-drift region, an anode region, a localized p+ doped cathode region and double-sided terminations area; the double-sided terminal structure includes a front terminal area and a back terminal area, respectively surrounding the anode area and the cathode area, which can improve the area efficiency of the terminal structure; the local p+ doping area is on the surface of the back cathode area Or inside, according to different application requirements, different dopant doses, widths, depths, and arrangement periods can be used, and holes can be injected at the end of reverse recovery to suppress electric field spikes and current filamentation on the cathode side, thereby solving the problem of double-sided termination. The resulting strong punch-through effect is not conducive to the improvement of the firmness and softness of the high-voltage fast recovery diode.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a high-voltage fast recovery diode structure. Background technique: [0002] The double-sided terminal structure has been proposed (Chinese invention patent application number: 201610685489.X), such as figure 1 As shown, the concentration of the substrate is required to be lower than the conventional situation, and the thickness of the silicon wafer is thin, in order to deplete the backside and make the backside terminal work. Although the double-sided terminal can improve the area efficiency of the terminal structure, this structure causes a strong punch-through of the electric field on the back side and increases the electric field on the cathode side, which will bring at least two hazards. 1. The remaining stored charge is quickly depleted during reverse recovery, resulting in current tripping and high voltage overshoot with very high di / dt, which may generate high el...
