Abstract: In allusion to the problem of high on?state voltage drop (Von) and the low breakdown voltage, a high permittivity (high K) back gate reverse conducting insulated gate bipolar transistor (HK?BG?RC?IGBT) device structure is proposed. Its characteristic is that the back gate dielectric located at the bottom collector is filled with HK. The HK dielectric increases the hole concentration around the back gate during the forward conduction, which not only eliminates the snapback?free, but also reduces Von. The simulation results show that, at high forward conduction current density (ICE=925 A/cm2), the Von of HK?BG?RC?IGBT is 1.71 V, which is 19.34% lower than that of the conventional RC?IGBT (C?RC?IGBT) and 13.20% lower than that of OXIde back gate RC?IGBT (OXI?BG?RC?IGBT). The HK dielectric enhances the electron accumulation around the BG in the blocking state, resulting in an increased breakdown voltage. The simulation results show that the breakdown voltage of the HK?BG?RC?IGBT is 1 312 V, which is increased by 44.18% compared with OXI?BG?RC?IGBT. In addition, the reverse Von of the HK?BG?RC?IGBT is reduced respectively by 13.85% and 43.43% compared with OXI?BG?RC?IGBT and C?RC?IGBT. Applying the proposed HK?BG?RC?IGBT to high?voltage and high?power electronic power systems can enhance the system reliability and reduce the loss.

絕緣柵雙極型晶體管(IGBT)因兼有場效應晶體管易驅動和雙極型三極管導通壓降低、電流密度大的優(yōu)點, 被廣泛應用于高壓功率器件[1?3]。從誕生以來,IGBT經歷了穿通型、非穿通型和場截止型的發(fā)展歷程,這三種結構都是針對導通特性和關斷特性提出的。但由于IGBT是由MOSFET和BJT組合而成,在器件內部未并聯(lián)續(xù)流二極管,因此沒有反向導通能力[4?5]。
為了使IGBT具有反向導通能力,節(jié)省芯片面積并降低成本和功耗,器件研究者將IGBT與續(xù)流二極管反向并聯(lián)集成在一起,稱為逆導型IGBT(Reverse Conducting IGBT, RC?IGBT)[6?8]。RC?IGBT將IGBT集電極部分區(qū)域替換為N+短路區(qū),雖然實現(xiàn)了逆向導通,降低了寄生電阻,但在正向導通時,器件由單極型導通切換到雙極型導通模式,造成了電壓回跳[9?11],不僅增大了器件的導通損耗,也不利于串并聯(lián)應用。……
