Abstract

The invention discloses an RC-IGBT structure capable of reducing reverse recovery loss of an integrated diode, and the structure carries out the discrete design of a diode and a P + emitter region of an IGBT part on the basis of a conventional RC-IGBT structure. In the IGBT part, a conventional P + emitter region structure is reserved to ensure that the performance of the RC-IGBT is not damaged when the RC-IGBT works in an IGBT mode; in the diode part, the length of P + emitter regions is shortened, the P + emitter regions are arranged on the two sides of a dummy gate and are ensured to be in contact with an emitter metal electrode, the shortened P + emitter regions can reduce the injection efficiency of anode carriers of the integrated diode and reduce the number of carriers stored in an N drift region in the conduction of the diode, and finally the purpose of improving the reliability of the integrated diode is achieved on the premise that the performance of the IGBT is not damaged. And the reverse recovery current peak value and the reverse recovery loss of the integrated diode are reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductors, in particular to an RC-IGBT structure for reducing the reverse recovery loss of an integrated diode. Background technique [0002] In order to reduce the size and production cost of power devices, scholars proposed to parasitic the reverse freewheeling diode inside the IGBT, thus developing the reverse conducting IGBT (Reverse Conducting-IGBT, RC-IGBT). RC-IGBT has been extensively studied at present, and it has complex trade-offs. To achieve IGBT characteristics (including IGBT turn-on voltage drop V CEsat and turn-off loss E off ) and internal parasitic diode characteristics (including diode turn-on voltage V F and diode reverse recovery loss E rr ) trade-off between. In the process of the freewheeling diode turning from conduction to blocking state, the diode cannot immediately enter the blocking state after reverse voltage is applied, but will temporarily maintain the conducting state and ge...
