Abstract: | A novel high-voltage light punch-through (LPT) carrier stored trench bipolar transistor (CSTBT) with buried p-layer (BP) is proposed in this paper. Since the negative charges in the BP layer modulate the bulk electric field distribution, the electric field peaks both at the junction of the p base/n-type carrier stored (N-CS) layer and the corners of the trench gates are reduced, and new electric field peaks appear at the junction of the BP layer/N- drift region. As a result, the overall electric field in the N- drift region is enhanced and the proposed structure improves the breakdown voltage (BV) significantly compared with the LPT CSTBT. Furthermore, the proposed structure breaks the limitation of the doping concentration of the N-CS layer (NN -CS) to the BV, and hence a higher NN-CS can be used for the proposed LPT BP-CSTBT structure and a lower on-state voltage drop (Vce(sat)) can be obtained with almost constant BV. The results show that with a BP layer doping concentration of NBP=7 × 1015 cm-3, a thickness of LBP=2.5 μm, and a width of WBP=5 μm, the BV of the proposed LPT BP-CSTBT increases from 1859 V to 1862 V, with NN-CS increasing from 5 × 1015 cm-3 to 2.5 × 1016 cm-3. However, with the same N--drift region thickness of 150 μm and NN-CS, the BV of the CSTBT decreases from 1598 V to 247 V. Meanwhile, the Vce(sat) of the proposed LPT BP-CSTBT structure decreases from 1.78 V to 1.45 V with NN-CS increasing from 5 × 1015 cm-3 to 2.5 × 1016 cm-3. |
