Abstract

In this paper. a new small size Lateral Trench Electrode Power IGBT is proposed. The entire electrode of proposed LIGBT is placed in trench oxide. The forward blocking voltage of the proposed LIGBT is improved by 1.6 times with that of the conventional LIGBT. The forward blocking voltage of proposed LIGBT is 500V. At the same size. a increase of the forward blocking voltage of about 1.6 times relative to the conventional LIGBT is observed by using TMA-MEDICI which is used for analyzing device characteristics. Because the electrodes of the proposed device are formed in trench oxide. the electric field in the device are crowded to trench oxide. We observed that the characteristics of i the proposed device was improved by using TMA-MEDICI and that the fabrication of the proposed device is possible by using TMA-TSUPREM4.
