    Abstract: A RC-IGBT with fast recovery integrated diode is proposed adopting the concept of a hybrid structure with conventional IGBT emitter trench-stop, separated from an embedded low efficiency injection anode diode. The body region of the IGBT and the anode region of the diode are separately patterned and doped, and the metal barrier layer is removed from the diode area allowing a direct ohmic contact of AlSi alloy on the underneath P-doped anode. A full-anode contact opening is present in the diode area. Moreover, corresponding dummy trenches in the diode area are short-circuited to the emitter electrode giving the benefit to reduce the transfer Miller capacitance. In this way, a good trade-off of VF vs Err can be obtained for the integrated diode without downgrading the IGBT performances both in terms of VCEsat and leakage, differently from the case of devices manufactured by lifetime control techniques.
