    摘要: A semiconductor device is provided. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor body with a base region and a first electrode arranged on a main horizontal surface of the semiconductor body. The semiconductor body further includes an IGBT-cell with a body region forming a first pn-junction with the base region, and a diode-cell with an anode region forming a second pn-junction with the base region. A source region in ohmic contact with the first electrode and an anti-latch-up region in ohmic contact with the first electrode are, in a vertical cross-section, only formed in the IGBT-cell. The anti-latch-up region has higher maximum doping concentration than the body region. Further a reverse conducting IGBT is provided.

    摘要: A power transistor includes a semiconductor layer an electrode layer. The semiconductor layer having a source zone, a drain zone spaced apart from the source zone in a lateral direction, a drift zone adjacent to the drain zone, and a body zone. The body zone is interposed between the drift zone and the source zone. The electrode layer is dielectrically insulated from the semiconductor layer, and includes a gate electrode divided into at least two sections and a field plate. The field plate is arranged at a first height level relative to the semiconductor layer. A first gate electrode section is arranged at least partially at a second height level, which is lower than the first height level relative to the semiconductor layer. A second gate electrode section, which is laterally displaced from the first gate electrode section, is disposed at a first intermediate level arranged between the first and second height levels.

    摘要: A semiconductor device includes a first trench and a second trench extending into a semiconductor body from a surface. A body region of a first conductivity type adjoins a first sidewall of the first trench and a first sidewall of the second trench, the body region including a channel portion adjoining to a source structure and being configured to be controlled in its conductivity by a gate structure. The channel portion is formed at the first sidewall of the second trench and is not formed at the first sidewall of the first trench. An electrically floating semiconductor zone of the first conductivity type adjoins the first trench and has a bottom side located deeper within the semiconductor body than the bottom side of the body region.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, a semiconductor device comprises a body of a first conductivity type having a source region and a channel, the body being in contact with a top contact layer. The device also comprises a gate arranged adjacent the channel and a drift zone of a second conductivity type arranged between the body and a bottom contact layer. An integrated diode is formed partially by a first zone of the first conductivity type within the body and being in contact with the top contact layer and a second zone of the second conductivity type being in contact with the bottom contact layer. A reduced charge carrier concentration region is formed in the drift zone having a continuously increasing charge carrier lifetime in the vertical direction so that the charge carrier lifetime is lowest near the body and highest near the bottom contact layer.
