Abstract

A lateral IGBT structure having an emitter terminal including two or more base layers of a second conductivity-type for one collector terminal, in which the base layers of a second conductivity-type in emitter regions are covered with a first conductivity-type layer having a concentration higher than that of a drift layer so that a silicon layer between the first conductivity-type layer covering the emitter regions and a buried oxide film has a reduced resistance to increase current flowing to an emitter farther from the collector to thereby enhance the current density.
