Abstract:
A sub-gate electrode is arranged to face, through a gate insulating film, a surface of a first p-type base layer which is interposed between a first n-type source layer and an n-type drift layer, and a surface of a second p-type base layer which is interposed between a second n-type source layer and the n-type drift layer and faces the first p-type base layer. A main gate electrode is arranged to face, through a gate insulating film, a surface of the second p-type base layer which is interposed between the second n-type source layer and the n-type drift layer and does not face the first p-type base layer. Three n-type MOSFETs are constructed such that one n-type channel is to be formed in the first p-type base layer and two n-type channels are to be formed in the second p-type base layer. The three channels are to be formed, so that the channel width is effectively enlarged and the current density is increased. The second p-type base layer has a length of 10 .mu.m or less in the drifting direction.

A semiconductor device is disclosed having a thyristor region coupled to a semiconductor switching device and a semiconductor rectifier. During turn-off operation, holes are drained from the p-type base region of the thyristor region through the semiconductor rectifier and to the cathode of the thyristor. During turn-on, electrons are supplied to an n-type emitter region of the thyristor from the cathode electrode through the semiconductor switching device.
