摘要
An accumulation channel trench gate insulated gate bipolar transistor （ACT-IGBT） is proposed. The simu- lation results show that for a blocking capability of 1200 V, the on-state voltage drops of ACT-IGBT are 1.5 and 2 V at a temperature of 300 and 400 K, respectively, at a collector current density of 100 A/cm2. In contrast, the on-state voltage drops of a conventional trench gate IGBT （CT-IGBT） are 1.7 and 2.4 V at a temperature of 300 and 400 K, respectively. Compared to the CT-IGBT, the ACT-IGBT has a lower on-state voltage drop and a larger forward bias safe operating area. Meanwhile, the forward blocking characteristics and turn-off performance of the ACT-IGBT are also analyzed.
