Abstract

An IGBT includes a first region, a second region located within the first region, a first contact coupled to the first region, a first layer arranged below the first region, a gate overlying at least a portion of the first region between the second region and the first layer and a second layer formed under the first layer. One or more stacked zones are formed within the second layer. Each one or more stacked zones includes a first zone and a second zone that overlies the first zone. Each first zone is inversely doped with respect to the second layer and each second zone is inversely doped with respect to the first zone. The IGBT further includes a third layer formed under the second layer and a second contact coupled to the third layer.
