Problems solved by technology

This technical solution can change the height of the Schottky barrier by changing the doping concentration of the front P-type region and the work function of the emitter metal to adjust the hole injection efficiency; however, the parameter design in this technology is limited by the RC-IGBT process, There is a limit to how much reverse recovery power can be reduced
The industry also proposes a method of controlling the gate of the IGBT cell to turn on the gate of the IGBT cell before the reverse recovery of the FWD cell, and reduce the number of carriers during reverse recovery by deriving the front electron current; but this The scheme makes the gate drive control complex and requires additional devices for commutation detection, which is not conducive to the reliability and cost of the control system

Abstract

The invention discloses a power semiconductor device and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the field of power semiconductor devices. A punch-through triode structure for extracting electrons in a drift region is introduced, so that the injection efficiency of a front hole is reduced, an emitter hole current is converted into an electron drift current, and the conduction voltage drop is not obviously increased; in addition, adjustment of punch-through area and position is realized by changing density and morphology of the front grooves, so that efficiency of electron extraction and front hole injection is changed, and design flexibility and design dimension of the device are improved.
