    Abstract: In a semiconductor device having an active region and an inactive region, the active region includes a channel forming layer with a heterojunction structure having first and second semiconductor layers, a gate structure portion having a MOS gate electrode, a source electrode and a drain electrode disposed on the second semiconductor layer with the gate structure portion interposed therebetween, a third semiconductor layer disposed at a position away from the drain electrode between the gate structure portion and the drain electrode and not doped with an impurity, a p-type fourth semiconductor layer disposed on the third semiconductor layer, and a junction gate electrode brought into contact with the fourth semiconductor layer. The junction gate electrode is electrically connected to the source electrode to have a same potential as a potential of the source electrode, and is disposed only in the active region.

    Abstract: In a semiconductor device in which an IGBT region having an IGBT element and an FWD region having an FWD element are formed to a semiconductor substrate, a plurality of carrier injection layers electrically connected with a second electrode and configuring a PN junction with a field stop layer is disposed in a cathode layer. When an impurity concentration of the field stop layer is defined as Nfs [cm−3], and a length of a shortest portion of each of the plurality of carrier injection layers along a planar direction of the semiconductor substrate is defined as L1 [μm], the plurality of carrier injection layers satisfies a relationship of L1>6.8×10−16×Nfs+20.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a diode provided with: a drift layer being a first conductivity type; a cathode region being provided in a back face side of the drift layer and being the first conductivity type; a second conductivity type region provided in a surface layer part of the drift layer; multiple trenches dividing the second conductivity type region into pieces by being provided deeper than the second conductivity type region, and configuring an anode region; a gate insulation film provided in a surface of the trench; a gate electrode provided in a surface of the gate insulation film; an upper electrode electrically connected with the anode region; and a lower electrode electrically connected with the cathode region. A width between the trenches is narrowest in the drift layer is defined as a mesa width. The mesa width is set to be equal to or greater than 0.3 μm.

    Abstract: In a semiconductor device, a boundary area is between an IGBT region and a diode region. In other words, the boundary region is at a position adjacent to the diode region. The boundary region has a lower ratio of formation of a high-concentration P-type layer than the IGBT region. Accordingly, during recovery, hole injection from the IGBT region to the diode region can be inhibited. The reduced ratio of formation of the high-concentration P-type layer in the boundary region also reduces the amount of hole injection from the high-concentration P-type layer of the boundary region. Thus, it inhibits an increase in maximum reverse current during the recovery, and also decreases the carrier density on the cathode side to inhibit an increase in tail electrical current, so that the semiconductor device reduces switching loss and is highly resistant to recovery destruction.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device has an element part and an outer peripheral part, and a deep layer is formed in the outer peripheral part more deeply than a base layer. When a position of the deep layer closest to the element part is defined as a boundary position, a distance between the boundary position and a position closest to the outer peripheral part in an emitter region is defined as a first distance, and a distance between the boundary position and a position of an end of a collector layer is defined as a second distance, the first distance and the second distance are adjusted such that a carrier density in the outer peripheral part is lowered based on breakdown voltage in the outer peripheral part lowered by the deep layer.

    Abstract: A lateral insulated gate bipolar transistor includes a semiconductor substrate including a drift layer, a collector region, a channel layer, an emitter region, a gate insulating layer, a gate electrode, a collector electrode, an emitter electrode, and a barrier layer. The barrier layer is disposed along either side of the collector region and is located to a depth deeper than a bottom of the channel layer. The barrier layer has an impurity concentration that is higher than an impurity concentration of the drift layer. The barrier layer has a first end close to the collector region and a second end far from the collector region. The first end is located between the channel layer and the collector region, and the second end is located on the bottom of the channel layer.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device having a lateral insulated gate bipolar transistor includes a first conductivity type drift layer, a second conductivity type collector region formed in a surface portion of the drift layer, a second conductivity type channel layer formed in the surface portion of the drift layer, a first conductivity type emitter region formed in a surface portion of the channel layer, and a hole stopper region formed in the drift layer and located between the collector region and the emitter region. Holes are injected from the collector region into the drift layer and flow toward the emitter region through a hole path. The hole stopper region blocks a flow of the holes and narrows the hole path to concentrate the holes.
