Problems solved by technology

[0006] The implementation of method (1) will increase the gate-emitter capacitance and gate-collector capacitance at the same time, and the switching process of the IGBT is essentially the process of charging / discharging the gate capacitance, so the increase in the gate capacitance will Makes the charging / discharging time longer, which in turn causes the switching speed to decrease
Therefore, the deep trench gate depth will reduce the switching speed of the device, increase the switching loss of the device, and affect the compromise characteristics of the device's conduction voltage drop and switching loss; and the implementation of method (2) will increase the device's switching loss The gate capacitance will reduce the switching speed of the device and increase the switching loss, which will affect the compromise between the conduction voltage drop and switching loss of the device. On the other hand, the large channel density will also increase the saturation current density of the device, making the device short-circuit safe. Work Area (SCSOA) Deterioration
In addition, the gate oxide layer in the trench gate structure is formed in the trench by one thermal oxidation. In order to ensure a certain threshold voltage, the thickness of the entire gate oxide layer is required to be small. However, the MOS capacitance and the thickness of the oxide layer Inversely proportional to this, this makes the gate capacitance in the traditional CSTBT device significantly increased, and the electric field concentration effect at the bottom of the trench will reduce the breakdown voltage of the device, resulting in poor reliability of the device
