Numerical Study of a Thyristor Injection Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (TI-IGBT) Using P-N-P Collector

A new thyristor injection concept is proposed to decrease conductivity modulation effects in an Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (TI-IGBT), which adds a floating p-type layer and an n-type layer at the collector side. The additional p-layer and n-layer form a parasitic n-p-n transistor to reduce th...
