Adjoint method for the optimization of insulated gate bipolar transistors

A mathematical algorithm is presented for the computation of optimum doping profiles that maximize the breakdown voltage and on-state current in insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBT). The algorithm is based on the evaluation of doping sensitivity functions, which are defined as the functional de...
