  • Abstract
    The time evolution of the temperature gradient at the drift region (N--epitaxy) of two 600V PT-IGBT structures, corresponding to unirradiated and irradiated devices, is measured. These measurements have been performed by the internal IR-laser deflection technique (IIR-LD). The heat diffusion time and steady-state temperature gradient are deduced from the measured data.
