Abstract
We have developed single gate Trench IGBTs for 1.2 kV and 3.3 kV with ultra-low on-state/ switching losses and propose here for the first time a novel MOS controllable bipolar device, the double gate Trench IGBT (2G-TIGBT). The 2G-TIGBT can be seen as a successful continuation of the trench technology to ultra high voltage ranges such as those present in HVDC systems
