    Abstract

    Silicon trench-gate insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) were analyzed using technology CAD (TCAD). Excellent agreement was confirmed between the J_{C}^{-}}V_{\text{CE} characteristics obtained by 3D- TCAD simulations and experiments. The carrier lifetime requirement for scaled trench-gate IGBTs was determined by extraction of the on-resistance of the n-base layer derived from the electric potential profile.
