Popis: In this work, two thermal annealing processes (furnace and laser annealing) are adopted to obtain 3000 V breakdown voltage in insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) for propulsion control system of electric vehicles. In furnace annealing process (450 °C for 30 min), the parameter of Vce(sat) is 5.5–6.5 V once measuring at Ic = 2.0 A with EDS(electrical die sorting) analyser. However, annealing process was performed using a laser equipment to lower the Vce(sat). After back side grinding and back side implant, the sample wafer undergoes laser annealing process. From various annealing conditions it was found that the Vce(sat) was 1.6–1.7 V when measuring at collector current (Ic) of 2.0 A after annealing at pulse with of 1100 nm, 3-overlap and 3.5 J/cm2. From these results, it is found that the Vce(sat) is lower as increasing laser energy density and overlapping and the well-distributed Vce(sat) values over the entire chips appear as widening the laser pulse.
