Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the present invention is further described.
Operation principle of the present invention:
The gate electrode of device adds malleation, as Fig. 6, defines the raceway groove that connects heavily doped N-type emitter region and N-type drift region below grid.When collector electrode adds malleation, electronic current is sent to N-type drift region from N-type emitter region.Electron amount through raceway groove is relevant to the length of raceway groove, and raceway groove is longer, and electron amount is more.Described device is compared to traditional device, and the channel length of equivalence is longer, and the efficiency that electronics injects from channel region significantly promotes.Electronic current is as the ideal base drive current of PNP transistor, and impel hole to inject N-type drift region from heavily doped P type collector region, injected holes defines the emitter current of PNP transistor.Traditional devices compared by described device, because the relation that electronic current increases, ideal base drive current increases, and more hole can be attracted to inject N-type drift region, increase the emitter current of PNP transistor.Electric current from collector electrode to emitter is made up of two parts, and comprise the patch portion through MOSFET region raceway groove and the bipolar portion flowing through PNP pipe, described device makes this two-part electric current all increase, and the total current of device significantly rises.When electric current flows through N-type drift region, it is in large injection state, because described device current is larger than traditional devices electric current, the carrier concentration of N-type drift region is higher, and conductivity modulation effect is also stronger, greatly improves the On current ability of device.
Alternately be made up of 4 layers of N-type and territory, p type island region in LIGBT structure, this generates parasitic thyristor.When LIGBT electric current is too large, make the part conducting of thyristor NPN, then parasitic thyristor latch, now in device, electric current continues to increase, and gate signal is by the shutoff of uncontrollable LIGBT, makes LIGBT structure experience destructive failure.The conducting current density of increased device, device enters into latch mode by lower voltage, reduces the reliability of device.For described device, hole flows into through N-type drift region from collector electrode, flow to emitter, and the first, the 5th P type emitter region, hole is directly absorbed, reduce the hole current flow through below N-type emitter region, thus inhibit the unlatching of parasitic NPN transistor, improve the anti-breech lock ability of device.
When device is in conducting state, N-type drift region is in large injection state, a large amount of non equilibrium carriers is had in N-type drift region, when gate signal adds zero potential, raceway groove turns off, and the hole that in N-type drift region, part is superfluous is through P type tagma, absorbed by the first, the 5th P type emitter region, the first, the 5th P type emitter region is that in device, non-equilibrium hole provides extra path to emitter, accelerates the speed that device turns off, thus reduces the shutoff power consumption of device.
Can all become N-type heavy doping for a P type emitter region of described device, the 5th P type emitter region, as Fig. 7, now the conducting current density of device will arrive maximum, but the latching feature of device also can be degenerated.
Adjustable respectively for the length between a P type emitter region of described device, the second N-type emitter region, the 3rd N-type emitter region, the 4th N-type emitter region, the 5th P type emitter region, adjustable scope is 0.5um ~ 100um.Second N-type emitter region, the 3rd N-type emitter region, the 4th N-type emitter region define a JFET region, 17 regions in Fig. 5, and JEFT district creates extra resistance R
jEFT, but in the ordinary course of things, drift resistance is main (R
drain>>R
jEFT), JEFT district resistance can be ignored.When changing each interval emitter region length, the shape in JEFT region also changes, and the resistance in JEFT district also just changes.Length when the 3rd N-type emitter region reduces, as Fig. 8, R
jEFTto increase, the length of the 3rd N-type emitter region little to a certain extent time, R
jEFTcannot ignore, now total conducting resistance increases, and conducting current density reduces, and therefore will ensure that the length of the 3rd N-type emitter region can not be too little.
And when change second N-type emitter region and the 4th N-type emitter region length, as Fig. 9, the length of the second N-type emitter region is longer, equivalent channel length is longer, and the injection efficiency of electronics is also higher, and conducting current density increases.But the second N-type emitter region is larger, the resistance in JEFT district is also larger, when the length of the second N-type emitter region is too large, and R
jEFTcannot ignore, total conducting resistance is increased, and conducting current density reduces, and therefore the length of the second N-type emitter region has a definite limitation, can not unrestrictedly increase.
And when change the one P type emitter region and the 5th P type emitter region length, as Figure 10, the length of a P type emitter region is longer, and the hole absorption ability in a territory, emitter p type island region, P type emitter region also strengthens, the anti-breech lock ability of device rises, and turn-off speed promotes; But the length of a P type emitter region increases, and the contraction in length of specific equivalent raceway groove, now the electron injection efficiency of emitter also can reduce, and the conducting current density of device also reduces.
Therefore device of the present invention significantly improves the current density of device on the basis that retainer member is withstand voltage, reduces the turn-off time of device, also improve the breech lock rejection ability of device.
In order to verify benefit of the present invention, this patent has carried out contrast simulation, by semiconductor device simulation software SentaurusTcad as shown in Figure 11 ~ Figure 16 to structure.In figure, W
pCbe the length of the first, the 5th P type emitter region, W
oCbe the length of the second, the 4th N-type emitter region, W
pEbe the length of the 3rd N-type emitter region.Current density figure when Figure 11 is second, third N-type emitter region different length of structure of the present invention, the length as seen from the figure when the 3rd N-type emitter region reduces, R
jEFTto increase, the length of the 3rd N-type emitter region little to a certain extent time, R
jEFTcannot ignore, now total conducting resistance increases, and conducting current density reduces, and therefore will ensure that the length of the 3rd N-type emitter region can not be too little; When the length of the 3rd N-type emitter region is oversize, the ratio of the two or four N-type emitter region length reduces, and the equivalent channel length of unit sizes reduces, and electron injection efficiency reduces, and conducting current density reduces, and therefore the length of the 3rd N-type emitter region can not be oversize.When increase second N-type emitter region and the 4th N-type emitter region length, the length of the second N-type emitter region is longer, and equivalent channel length is longer, and the injection efficiency of electronics is also higher, and conducting current density increases.But the second N-type emitter region is larger, the resistance in JEFT district is also larger, when the length of the second N-type emitter region is too large, and R
jEFTcannot ignore, total conducting resistance is increased, and conducting current density reduces, and therefore the length of the second N-type emitter region has a definite limitation, can not unrestrictedly increase.Conducting current density when Figure 12 is structure of the present invention one P type emitter region different length and breech lock voltage pattern, a P type emitter region length increases as seen from the figure, and the current density of device reduces, and breech lock voltage increases, in practical application, can the structure of adjusting device according to demand.Figure 13 is the I-V curve comparison figure of structure of the present invention and traditional structure, and the On current energy force rate traditional structure of structure of the present invention is strong as seen from the figure.Figure 14 is the breech lock voltage compare figure of structure of the present invention and traditional structure, and the breech lock voltage of structure devices of the present invention is larger as seen from the figure, stronger to the rejection ability of latch-up.Figure 15 shows that the turn-off time comparison diagram of structure of the present invention and traditional structure, the turn-off time of structure of the present invention is shorter as seen from the figure, and the turn-off power loss of device is lower.Figure 16 is the withstand voltage comparison diagram of structure of the present invention and traditional devices, and structure of the present invention is withstand voltage identical with traditional devices as seen from the figure, is improving the current density of device, and when improve the breech lock rejection ability of device, the withstand voltage not loss of device.
In sum, therefore the basis that can not degenerate at withstand voltage, the breech lock rejection ability of retainer member of device of the present invention improved the conducting current density of SOI-LIGBT and turn off speed.
