Title
Verification of the Injection Enhancement Effect in IGBTs by Measuring the Electron and Hole Currents Separately
Abstract
The injection enhancement effect in IGBTs was experimentally verified by separately measuring emitter electron-and hole-currents for the first time. Finger contacts were employed as ladder-like periodic n+ and p+ emitters to allow the independent measurement of these currents. Both reducing the mesa width and increasing the cell pitch were found to increase electron injection from the emitter, demonstrating the injection enhancement effect. These experimental results agreed well with the simulation results.
