摘要： A problem to be solved by the present invention is to eliminate variation in potential in a turn-off time period of each GTO element, and to stabilize a gate drawing current by surely performing the turn-off of the GTO element. In an inverter apparatus having a three-phase inverter configured to include paired GTO elements an inverter control portion has a simultaneous switching prevention function of delaying a turn-on operation of each of the GTO elements which correspond to phases other than a phase corresponding to an optional one of the GTO elements and also correspond to an electrode opposite to an electrode corresponding to the optional one of the GTO elements by a predetermined time in a case where a turn-on command signal for turning on each of the GTO elements is generated within a predetermined time period since the turn-off of the optional one of the GTO elements.

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： A high withstand voltage semiconductor chip mounted on a package or a board is covered with a sealing resin, and the resin is cured while a high voltage is applied between at least one of electrode terminals connected from a chip electrode or the chip via wiring of wires or the like and another electrode that necessitates a dielectric withstand voltage between the electrode and the electrode terminal during the curing. The sealing resin is provided by a synthetic high molecular compound structured in a manner that an organic silicon polymer C is constituted by alternately linearly linking an organic silicon polymer A having a crosslinking structure of siloxane with an organic silicon polymer B having a linear link structure of siloxane (Si—O—Si bond) by siloxane bond and the polymers are three-dimensionally linked together by covalent bond. With this arrangement, a dielectric withstand voltage capability, which is stable by suppression of an increase in the leakage current even when a high reverse voltage is applied and agrees with the designed value, can be obtained in a high withstand voltage semiconductor chip that is mounted on a board or a package and sealed with the resin.

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.
