Abstract

See full text

A gate-turn-off power semiconductor device of the GTO or FCTh type, having a control zone of alternately arranged finely subdivided cathode fingers and gate trenches, wherein the gate trenches are constructed as narrow deep slots, preferably by a crystal-direction-selective wet chemical etching process, while the original substrate surface is retained in the remaining area of the semiconductor substrate. Compared with the conventional 'recessed-gate' construction, this quasi-planar construction offers a number of advantages in the electrical behavior, in the integration of auxiliary functions and in the production.
