A planar multiple floating field-limiting ring structure, designed for above 600V blocking capability, is analyzed in this work. We have proven by simulation and experiment that adding a well designed buffer layer in the epi-substrate region counteracts on the drop in electric field which is due to the space charge limited current and as such the buffer enhances the robustness towards reverse voltage biasing.

In this paper we present the detailed investigation of the influence of the internal bipolar PNP transistor gain on the thermal stability of high voltage IGBTs and BiGTs. The bipolar gain is controlled by means of anode and buffer design and by the introduction of anode shorts. The influence of the different buffer and anode doping profiles and the different layouts in the case of anode-shorted designs are analyzed. Temperature dependent leakage current measurements confirm that the lowering of the leakage current and its subsequent weak temperature dependency can be achieved by buffer and anode engineering albeit with certain design trade-off restrictions. Nevertheless, another effective approach for suppressing the leakage current and its dependency on temperature is achieved by the introduction of anode shorts as demonstrated in reverse conducting IGBT or BiGT structures. Such designs eliminate to a large extent the internal bipolar transistor action in the BiGT anode shorted designs while allowing different anode and buffer doping profiles for the design trade-offs. Despite the fact that the lifetime control in the BiGT drift region causes the leakage current to increase, the temperature coefficient remains unchanged, hence, making the hard switched BiGT suitable for high temperature operation.

A PNM (Partially Narrow Mesa) -IGBT with a fundamentally new surface is proposed for the first time. The unique gate shape looks like a “vase” and generates an extreme injection enhancement. Its performance approaches the limits of Si-IGBT. Therefore, PNM-IGBT is able to contribute to the saturation voltage reduction and the improvement of Vce(sat)-Eoff trade off. Furthermore, it can be adapted to actual conditions because of its sufficiently rugged structure.

A novel HV thin layer SOI technology based on 1.5-μm-thick silicon layer for negative HV power supply has been first proposed. HV field nLDMOS with thick gate oxide, HV pLDMOS with thin gate oxide and LV CMOS are compatible with shallow trench isolation. Gate and source field plates are adopted to improve the breakdown characteristics of HV field nLDMOS since it doesn't meet SOI RESURF criterion. N-field with shallow junction depth is introduced to eliminate channel discontinuity around the “beak” region at the source side of HV field nLDMOS and avoid punch-through breakdown induced by BG effect of HV field nLDMOS. The influences of key parameters on breakdown mechanism are discussed and optimal parameters are obtained to achieve well characteristics of HV field nLDMOS for negative HV power supply. A negative HV switching IC using the proposed thin layer SOI technology shows that both the rise and fall times of the output stages are less than 50 ns under the negative supply voltage of -100 V and the load capacitance of 5000 pF.

Power electronic interfaces are vital to advanced, smarter, distributed grids and micro-grids and the capabilities and limitations of power devices are integral to this. This paper discusses existing and emerging applications of grid connected electronic interfaces that are enabled by Power Semiconductor Devices. The application focus will be on: (1) inverters, which are a key element of modern distributed and renewable energy systems; (2) solid-state transformers which hold great promise to reduce size and weight, while enhancing performance, compared to existing Grid transformers; (3) MV static transfer switches, which facilitate redundant power at the medium voltage level. Capabilities and tradeoffs between Power circuit topologies, available devices, and circuit techniques are presented. Existing and projected market opportunities are also presented, and motivation for future device development is outlined. Emerging transformative research using wide band gap devices in silicon-dominated power device applications, along with hybrid power switch configurations, will also be highlighted. The compelling requirement of advanced grids for both fast fault current limiting, fast voltage control, and possibly increased overload capability to enable the much heralded advances, are also shown to be completely dependent on devices, along with their cost effective application.

AlGaN/GaN metal insulator semiconductor high electron mobility transistors (MIS-HEMTs) employing rf sputtered Ga2O3 have been proposed and fabricated. A very high breakdown voltage exceeding 3200 V and a low drain leakage current of 230 nA/mm at gate-drain distance (LGD) of 40 μm was achieved without any sacrificing DC output characteristics while those of the unpassivated HEMT were 350 V and 134 μA/mm. The breakdown voltage of the Ga2O3 passivated HEMT was increased with increase of LGD because the injected electrons into the deep traps in Ga2O3 effectively extended the depletion region between the gate and the drain. And the injected electrons into deep traps have high activation energy for de-trapping so that the reverse blocking characteristics of the Ga2O3 passivated HEMT were considerable improved.

For the first time, experiments and simulations for testing the influence of dynamic switching on the robustness of power devices against cosmic radiation are presented. Irradiation experiments of switching high power modules are performed, using pulsed proton or neutron beams. Thereby, the switching frequency of the power modules is synchronized to the extraction frequency of particle beam pulses from the synchrotron. With this new experimental approach both 6.5kV IGBTs and free-wheeling diodes are studied under various switching conditions. Employing these experiments and also simulations based on semi-empirical models, we find a non-negligible contribution of these dynamic effects on the failure rate of high power devices induced by high-energy nucleon irradiation.

A simple method to design the single-mask multi-zone junction termination extension (MZJTE) (SM-MZJTE) for high-voltage insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) is presented and experimentally demonstrated. By assuming that the p-type SM-MZJTE region is completely depleted and the equipotential lines are circular arcs for simplicity, an analytical model of the selective function is derived from the charge balance and the geometrical relations. As the blocking capability is sensitive to the implantation dose, the Boron segregation at Si-SiO2 interface has also been taken into consideration in this model. According to the analytical model, high-voltage IGBTs and test devices with edge termination of SM-MZJTE are fabricated. IGBTs with edge termination implantation dose of 3×1012 cm-2 show highest average breakdown voltage of 3.79 kV (about 92% of the parallel plane breakdown voltage).
