Abstract:In this paper, a crown-shaped trench gate formed by a sidewall spacer in insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBT) is proposed to improve breakdown voltage. When a sidewall spacer is added to trench bottom corners, the electric field is distributed to the surface of the sidewall spacer and decreased to 48% peak value of the electric field. Thus, the sidewall spacer IGBT improved to 5% breakdown voltage. Another study proposed an additional oxide layer for trench bottom corners and improved breakdown voltage si… Show more
