摘要:
A lateral junction field effect transistor includes a first gate electrode layer arranged in a third semiconductor layer between source/drain region layers, having a lower surface extending on the second semiconductor layer, and doped with p-type impurities more heavily than the second semiconductor layer, and a second gate electrode layer arranged in a fifth semiconductor layer between the source/drain region layers, having a lower surface extending on a fourth semiconductor layer, having substantially the same concentration of p-type impurities as the first gate electrode layer, and having the same potential as the first gate electrode layer. Thereby, the lateral junction field effect transistor has a structure, which can reduce an on-resistance while maintaining good breakdown voltage properties.

A lateral JFET has a basic structure including an n-type semiconductor layer (3) formed of an n-type impurity region and a p-type semiconductor layer formed of a p-type impurity region on the n-type semiconductor layer (3). Moreover, in the p-type semiconductor layer, there are provided a p+-type gate region layer (7) extending into the n-type semiconductor layer (3) and containing p-type impurities of an impurity concentration higher than that of the n-type semiconductor layer (3) and an n+-type drain region layer (9) spaced from the p+-type gate region layer (7) by a predetermined distance and containing n-type impurities of an impurity concentration higher than that of the n-type semiconductor layer (3). With this structure, the lateral JFET can be provided that has an ON resistance further decreased while maintaining a high breakdown voltage performance.

摘要:
A junction field effect transistor (JFET) is provided that is capable of a high voltage resistance, high current switching operation, that operates with a low loss, and that has little variation. This JFET is provided with a gate region (2) of a second conductivity type provided on a surface of a semiconductor substrate, a source region (1) of a first conductivity type, a channel region (10) of the first conductivity type that adjoins the source region, a confining region (5) of the second conductivity type that adjoins the gate region and confines the channel region, a drain region (3) of the first conductivity type provided on a reverse face, and a drift region (4) of the first conductivity type that continuously lies in a direction of thickness of the substrate from a channel to a drain. A concentration of an impurity of the first conductivity type in the drift region and the channel region is lower than a concentration of an impurity of the first conductivity type in the source region and the drain region and a concentration of an impurity of the second conductivity type in the confining region.
