Abstract

Due to the charge compensation effect, SOI(Silicon-On-Insulator) LIGBT with dual-epi layer have been found to exhibit both low forward voltage drop and high static breakdown voltage. In this paper, electrical characteristics of the SOI LIGBT with dual-epi structure is presented. Trenched anode structure is employed to obtain uniform current flowlines and shorted anode structure also employed to prevent the fast latch-up. Latching current density of the proposed LIGBT with $T_1=T_2=2.5{\mu}m,\;N_1=7{\times}10^{15}/cm^3,\;N_2=3{\times}10^{15}/cm^3$ is $800A/cm^2$ and breakdown voltage is 125V while latching current density and breakdown voltage of the conventional LIGBT is $700A/cm^2$ and 55V.
