AI Technical Summary
Due to the lack of a body diode free-flow channel in traditional transverse plane gate IGBT, the parasitic parameters between the IGBT and the diode increase and the power loss increases. At the same time, the hole carriers injected in the P+ region will be greatly reduced compared to normal IGBT devices, affecting the forward flow capacity.
The first drain is introduced as the cathode of the freewheeling diode in the IGBT, so as to separate the freewheeling conductive channel of the IGBT from the freewheeling diode, ensuring that the number of hole carriers injected into the P+ region does not decrease.
By introducing the first drain, the problem of reducing hole carriers in the P+ region is solved, the forward flow capacity of the IGBT is maintained, and the process steps are simple and fully compatible with the commercial IGBT preparation process.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of semiconductor technology, and in particular to a lateral planar gate IGBT and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In the field of power electronic device technology, IGBT, as a commonly used power semiconductor, occupies a dominant position in the field of high-power power semiconductors. Due to its special structure, the traditional lateral planar gate IGBT does not have a body diode freewheeling channel and can only connect a diode in parallel as a freewheeling diode, which increases the parasitic parameters between the IGBT and the diode and also increases the power loss of the device.
[0003] At present, one solution to this problem is to integrate a diode freewheeling channel inside the IGBT. Existing patent documents, such as the patent document with publication number CN115101578A, disclose an IGBT device with a reverse recovery diode and a preparation method thereof. By three ion implantations, three regions of N+, N++, and P+ are prepared from the edge to the center at the bottom of the epitaxial wafer, and then a drain metal is prepared at the bottom of the epitaxial wafer. This method integrates a reverse recovery diode in the IGBT, but the three regions of N+, N++, and P+ share a drain metal. When the device is forward-powered, the current flows preferentially from N+ and N++, and the hole carriers injected into the P+ region are greatly reduced relative to normal IGBT devices, which has a huge impact on the forward current carrying capacity of the IGBT; the patent with publication number CN102931216B discloses an IGBT device integrated with Schott The insulated gate bipolar transistor structure of the base diode integrates Schottky metal contacts at the cell spacing at the top of the epitaxial wafer, and prepares N+ and P+ regions at the bottom of the epitaxial wafer. However, the N+ and P+ regions share a drain metal, and there is still a problem that the hole carriers injected into the above-mentioned P+ region will be greatly reduced relative to normal IGBT devices. The patent with publication number CN114373749A discloses a lateral IGBT structure with a freewheeling diode. The structure prepares an isolation layer in the withstand voltage region, and the N+ and P+ regions share a collector. The isolation layer isolates the N+ region from the withstand voltage region. When the IGBT works in the forward direction, the collector current can only flow from the P+ region into the withstand voltage region and the emitter. The structure will not cause the hole carriers injected into the above-mentioned P+ region to be greatly reduced relative to normal IGBT devices, but there is a problem of high technical difficulty in preparing the isolation layer in the withstand voltage region.
