A method for manufacturing an insulated gate bipolar transistor (100) comprises: providing a substrate (10), forming a field oxide layer (20) on a front surface of the substrate (10), and forming a terminal protection ring (23); performing photoetching and etching on the active region field oxide layer (20) by using an active region photomask, introducing N-type ions into the substrate (10) by using a photoresist as a mask film; depositing and forming a polysilicon gate (31) on the etched substrate (10) of the field oxide layer (20), and forming a protection layer on the polysilicon gate (31); performing junction pushing on an introduction region of the N-type ions, and then forming a carrier enhancement region (41); performing photoetching by using a P well photomask, introducing P-type ions into the carrier enhancement region (41), and performing junction pushing and then forming a P-body region; performing, by means of the polysilicon gate, self-alignment introduction of N-type ions into the P-body region, and performing junction pushing and then forming an N-type heavily doped region; forming sidewalls on two sides of the polysilicon gate, introducing P-type ions into the N-type heavily doped region, and performing junction pushing and then forming a P-type heavily doped region; and removing the protection layer, and then performing introduction and doping of the polysilicon gate. The method reduces a forward voltage drop disposing the carrier enhancement region.
