Abstract
Provided are an insulated gate bipolar transistor and a preparation method therefor. An auxiliary groove gate, namely a structure of an auxiliary groove, an auxiliary gate layer and the corresponding gate oxide layer, is arranged below an emitting metal electrode between a first common groove and a second common groove so as to provide a carrier pathway when the insulated gate bipolar transistor is turned off, so that not only the turn-off speed of the insulated gate bipolar transistor is increased, but also the reverse-biased safety operation area characteristic of the insulated gate bipolar transistor is improved, thus improving the performance of the insulated gate bipolar transistor.
