A novel concept to achieve fast switching, high power, low loss diode is proposed. The MOS Controlled Diode (MCD) utilizes a MOSFET to control the injection of minority carriers during and before the reverse recovery of the diode. One of such device structure, the Trench MCD (TMCD) was analyzed using two-dimensional numerical simulation. Simulated results show that the TMCD provides good control of the injections over a wide range of carrier lifetimes and forward current densities. The switching loss of the TMCD was reduced to theoretical minimum when it was switched under majority carrier conduction mode.
