Abstract

The invention relates to power semiconductor technology, in particular to a silicon carbide MOS gate-controlled thyristor. The present invention transforms the cathode region of conventional silicon carbide MCT, by adding a layer of N-IEB layer under the P+ field stop layer, because the doping concentration of the N-type injection enhanced buffer layer is low, the minority carriers in this region are improved Life and mobility, thereby increasing the minority carrier diffusion length in the cathode structure, thereby increasing the cathode injection efficiency. And because the built-in electric field will be generated due to the concentration difference between the N-type substrate and the N-type injection-enhanced buffer layer, its direction is directed from the N-type substrate to the N-type injection-enhanced buffer layer, preventing the minority carrier holes from being injected by the N-type enhanced buffer layer. Diffusion to the N-type substrate layer by layer, thereby reducing the minority carrier hole diffusion current, and thus increasing the cathode injection efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of power semiconductors, in particular to a silicon carbide MOS gate-controlled thyristor Background technique [0002] Pulse power technology has extremely important applications in the fields of national defense scientific research and high-tech, and now the scope of application is expanding to industrial and civilian fields. MOS gate-controlled thyristor is an important pulse power device used in pulse power technology. [0003] MOS Gate Controlled Thyristor (MOS Controlled Thyristor, referred to as MCT) is a hybrid power electronic device composed of a power MOSFET and a thyristor. The characteristic of injecting a large number of carriers into the drift region. Therefore, MCT has good conduction characteristics of thyristors and high dv / dt resistance, and has the advantages of high input impedance, low control power, simple drive circuit, high switching speed and low switching loss of MOSFET, so it is...
