Method for manufacturing a reverse-conducting insulated gate bipolar transistor

摘要

A reverse-conducting insulated gate bipolar transistor includes a wafer of first conductivity type with a second layer of a second conductivity type and a third layer of the first conductivity type. A fifth electrically insulating layer partially covers these layers. An electrically conductive fourth layer is electrically insulated from the wafer by the fifth layer. The third through the fifth layers form a first opening above the second layer. A sixth layer of the second conductivity type and a seventh layer of the first conductivity type are arranged alternately in a plane on a second side of the wafer. A ninth layer is formed by implantation of ions through the first opening using the fourth and fifth layers as a first mask.
