    摘要: In a semiconductor device having a trench type insulated gate structure, in the case where a drift layer 2 of an n− conduction type has a high carrier density, when a high voltage is applied between a drain and a source in such a manner that a channel is not formed, the electric field strength of an insulator layer 9 below the trench type insulated gate is increased, thus causing breakdown. The withstand voltage of the semiconductor device is limited by the breakdown of the insulator layer 9, and it is difficult to realize high withstand voltage. In the characteristic of the present invention, a field relaxation semiconductor region 1 of a conduction type opposite to the conduction type of the drift layer 2 is formed within the drift layer 2 below the insulator layer 9 in the trench of the trench type insulated gate semiconductor device. Also, the thickness of a bottom portion of the insulator layer 9 provided in the trench of the trench type insulated gate semiconductor device is made significantly greater than the thickness of a lateral portion thereof.

    摘要: In a SiC pn diode, the lifetime is controlled by electron beam irradiation of about 3×1013 cm−2 or more. As a result of the life time control, as shown by a current-voltage characteristic (K10) in FIG. 1, the current started to flow at about 32 V and the on-voltage at an applied current of 100 A was 50 V in the SiC pn diode. In this case, the SiC pn diode has a resistance of 0.5Ω when the SiC pn diode is turned on. The conducting region of the SiC pn diode is 0.4 cm2, and is reduced to 0.2 Ωcm2 by increasing the on-resistance by the lifetime control. Therefore, for instance, in an electric circuit device using a diode and a resistor connected in series in prior arts, the resistor can be eliminated.

    摘要: SiC-IGBTs, which have an inversion-type channel with high channel resistance and have high on-voltage due to an influence from the surface state of the interface between a gate insulating film and a base layer, are required to decrease the on-voltage. An embedded collector region is partially formed in a base layer which is formed on an emitter layer of a SiC semiconductor. A channel layer is formed on the base layer and the embedded collector region to constitute an accumulation-type channel. Consequently, at on time, holes are accumulated in the upper layer portion of the channel layer so that a low-resistant channel is formed. Current by the holes flows to the emitter layer through a channel from the collector region and becomes a base current for an npn transistor composed of the embedded collector region, the base region and the emitter region.

    摘要: A mesa-type wide-gap semiconductor gate turn-off thyristor has a low gate withstand voltage and a large leakage current. Since the ionization rate of P-type impurities greatly increases at high temperatures when compared with that at room temperature, the hole implantation amount increases and the minority carrier lifetime becomes longer. Consequently, the maximum controllable current is significantly lowered when compared with that at room temperature. To solve these problems, a p-type base layer is formed on an n-type SiC cathode emitter layer which has a cathode electrode on one surface, and a thin n-type base layer is formed on the p-type base layer. A mesa-shaped p-type anode emitter layer is formed in the central region of the n-type base layer. An n-type gate contact region is formed sufficiently apart from the junction between the p-type anode emitter layer and the n-type base layer, and an n-type low-resistance gate region is so formed in the n-type base layer that it surrounds the anode emitter layer.
