The poly gate and poly emitter of the proposed IGBT are arranged alternately along the trench. A self-biased p-MOSFET is formed on the emitter side. Owing to this unique three-dimensional(3D) trench architecture, both the turnoff characteristic and the turn-on characteristic can be greatly improved. At the turn-off moment, the maximum electric field and impact ionization rate of the proposed IGBT decrease and the dynamic avalanche(DA) is suppressed. Comparing with the carrier-stored trench gate bipolar transistor(CSTBT), the turn-off loss(E_(off)) of the proposed IGBT also decreases by 31% at the same ON-state voltage. At the turn-on moment, the built-in p-MOSFET reduces the reverse displacement current(I_(G_dis)), which is conducive to lowing dI_(C)/d_(t). As a result, compared with the CSTBT with the same turn-on loss(E_(on)), at I_(C) = 20 A/cm^(2), the proposed IGBT decreases by 35% of collector surge current(I_(surge)) and 52% of dI_(C)/d_(t).展开更多
