본 논문에서는 CDT(Conventional Double Trench) MOSFET보다 스위칭 시간과 손실이 적은 1700 V EPDT(Extended P+ shielding floating gate Double Trench) MOSFET 구조를 제안하였다. 제안한 EPDT MOSFET 구조는 CDT MOSFET에서 소스 Trench의 P+ shielding 영역을 늘리고 게이트를 N+와 플로팅 P- 폴리실리콘 게이트로 나누었다. Sentaurus TCAD 시뮬레이션을 통해 두 구조를 비교한 결과 온 저항은 거의 차이가 없었으나 Crss(게이트-드레인 간 커패시턴스)는 게이트에 0 V 인가 시에는 CDT MOSFET 대비 32.54 % 줄었고 7 V 인가 시에는 65.5 % 감소하였다. 결과적으로 스위칭 시간 및 손실은 각각 45 %, 32.6 % 줄어 스위칭 특성이 크게 개선되었다.

In this paper, a low on-resistance and high current driving capability trench gate power metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) incorporating a current sensing feature is proposed and evaluated. In order to realize higher cell density, higher current driving capability, cost-effective production, and higher reliability, self-aligned trench etching and hydrogen annealing techniques are developed. While maintaining low threshold voltage and simultaneously improving gate oxide integrity, the double-layer gate oxide technology was adapted. The trench gate power MOSFET was designed with a 0.6 μm trench width and 3.0 μm cell pitch. The evaluated on-resistance and breakdown voltage of the device were less than 24 mΩ and 105 V, respectively. The measured sensing ratio was approximately 70:1. Sensing ratio variations depending on the gate applied voltage of 4 V ~ 10 V were less than 5.6%.

In this paper, the 1,700 V level SiC-based power MOSFET device widely used in electric vehicles and new energy industries was designed, that is, a single trench gate power MOSFET structure and a double trench gate power MOSFET structure were proposed to analyze electrical characteristics while changing the design and process parameters. As a result of comparing and analyzing the two structures, it can be seen that the double trench gate structure shows quite excellent characteristics according to the concentration of the drift layer, and the breakdown voltage characteristics according to the depth of the drift layer also show excellent characteristics of 200 V or more. Among them, the trench gate power MOSFET device can be applied not only to the 1,700 V class but also to a voltage range above it, and it is believed that it can replace all Si devices currently applied to electric vehicles and new energy industries.

Trench-Gate structures are proposed to improve the breakdown voltage of LDMOS as well as the second breakdown under forward biased gate. Two dimensional device simulator PISCES II has been used to explain the effects of the drift layer thickness on the breakdown voltage of the conventional LDMOS and Trench Gate LDMOS in terms of potential contour lines. The Trench Gate structure has shown improvements in the breakdown voltage by about 44% and 84% for $V_G$=0 V and $V_G$=15 V respectively.

In this paper, two types of vertical SIT(Static Induction Transistor) structures are proposed to improve their electrical characteristics including the blocking voltage. Besides, the two dimensional numerical simulations were carried out using ISE-TCAD to verify the validity of the device and examine the electrical characteristics. First, a trench gate region oxide power SIT device is proposed to improve forward blocking characteristics. Second, a trench gate-source region power SIT device is proposed to obtain more higher forward blocking voltage and forward blocking characteristics at the same size. The two proposed devices have superior electrical characteristics when compared to conventional device. In the proposed trench gate oxide power SIT, the forward blocking voltage is considerably improved by using the vertical trench oxide and the forward blocking voltage is 1.5 times better than that of the conventional vertical power SIT. In the proposed trench gate-source oxide power SIT, it has considerable improvement in forward blocking characteristics which shows 1500V forward blocking voltage at -10V of the gate voltage. Consequently, the proposed trench oxide power SIT has the superior stability and electrical characteristics than the conventional power SIT.

IGBT (insulated gate bipolar transistor) have received wide attention because of their high current conduction and good switching characteristics. To reduce the power loss of IGBT, the on state voltage drop should be lowered and the switching time should be shorted. However, there is Trade-off between the breakdown voltage and the on state voltage drop. To achieving good electrical characteristics, field stop IGBT (FS IGBT) is proposed. In this paper, 1,200 V planar gate non punch-through IGBT (planar gate NPT IGBT), planar gate FS IGBT and trench gate FS IGBT is designed and optimized. The simulation results are compared with each three structures. In results, we optain optimal design parameters and confirm excellence of trench gate FS IGBT. Experimental result by using medici, shows 40% improvement of on state voltage drop.

In this paper, a single N+ emitter trench gate-type insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) device was studied using T-CAD, in order to achieve a low on-state voltage drop (Vce-sat) and high breakdown voltage, which would reduce power loss and device reliability. Using the simulation, the threshold voltage, breakdown voltage, and on-state voltage drop were studied as a function of the temperature, the length of time in the diffusion process (drive-in) after implant, and the trench gate depth. During the drive-in process, a $20^{\circ}C$ change in temperature from 1,000 to $1,160^{\circ}C$ over a 150 minute time frame resulted in a 1 to 4 V change in the threshold voltage and a 24 to 2.6 V change in the on-state voltage drop. As a result, a 0.5 um change in the trench depth of 3.5 to 7.5 um resulted in the breakdown voltage decreasing from 802 to 692 V.
