摘要: We propose a criterion to quantify the relationship between buffer layer parameters at given total charge and turn-off speed for 4H-SiC IGBTs. Three phases of voltage ramp are analytically discussed during inductive load by solving each corresponding continuity equation. Extra emphasis will be placed on Phase II - transition phase in initial punch-through.
