ABSTRACT:
Diffusion of aluminium into a silicon semiconductor wafer from an annular or grid pattern of deposited metallic aluminium to form a p-type annular zone at least 75 microns deep. The diffusion is performed in an oxidizing atmosphere to inhibit aluminium contamination of the wafer portion bounded by the p-type annular zone and in which for instance a thyristor may subsequently be formed. The aluminium may be diffused through the whole thickness of the wafer to form a peripheral zone of the thyristor body.
