Abstract
【解決手段】絶縁ゲート・バイポーラ・トランジスタ(IGBT)は、第1の伝導型を有する基板と、第2の伝導型を有するその基板上のドリフト層とを備える。第2の伝導型は、第1の伝導型と反対である。IGBTは、ドリフト層上に電流抑制層をさらに備える。電流抑制層は、第2の伝導型を有し、ドリフト層のドーピング濃度よりも大きなドーピング濃度を有する。第1の伝導型を有する井戸領域が、電流抑制層内にある。井戸領域は、電流抑制層の厚さよりも小さな接合深さを有し、電流抑制層は井戸領域の下に横方向に延在する。第2の伝導型を有するエミッタ領域が井戸領域内にある。
【選択図】図2
Description
電流抑制層54は、約1×1015cm-3から約1×1017cm-3の範囲のドーピング濃度を有することができ、特定の実施形態では、約1×1016cm-3の濃度でアルミニウムをドープすることができる。それゆえ、電流抑制層54は、JFET領域34にイオン注入を行うことなく、n+井戸18の近傍にJFET領域34を提供することができる。n+井戸18、p+エミッタ領域20およびn+電極領域22は、例えば上述した注入条件を用いて電流抑制層54内にイオン注入を行うことによって形成するすることができる。いくつかの実施形態では、電流抑制層54は約1μmの厚さを有することができる。
