Abstract
In this paper it is shown experimentally how the shape and the amount of the carrier distribution in the middle region of a diode influences the static behavior (voltage-current characteristic), the dynamic behavior (reverse recovery current, reverse recovery charge, soft recovery) and the temperature dependence of these characteristics. By combining the lifetime dominated Hall-principle and the emitter-controlling Kleinmann-principle various diodes were manufactured and investigated. With an infrared absorption technique the corresponding carrier distributions were measured.
