The semi-SJ structure has an optimized design and a specific on-resistance lower than that of conventional SJ structures, which can be achieved without increasing the process difficulty. The simulation results show that the specific on-resistance and the softness factor depend on the aspect and thickness ratios, and that by using the semi-SJ structure, specific on-resistance can be reduced without decreasing the softness factor. It is observed that a trade-off exists between the specific on-resistance and the softness of the diode.展开更多

Compared with the TAC-IGBT, the new device not only retains the advantages of the accumulation channel, but also obtains a larger breakdown voltage （BV）, a faster turn-off speed and a smaller saturation current level while keeping the on-state voltage drop lower as the TAC-IGBT does as well. Therefore, the new structure enlarges the short circuit safe operating area （SCSOA） and reduces the energy loss during the turn-off process.展开更多
