Claim:
1. A bidirectional insulated gate bipolar transistor, the transistor comprising a cellular structure comprising: a) two MOS structures, each MOS structure comprising: a body region, a heavily doped source region, a body contact region, and a trench gate structure; and the trench gate structure comprising a gate dielectric, a gate conductive material, and a trench having a wall; b) a substrate drift layer; c) two highly doped buried layers, the two highly doped buried layers adapted for carrier storage or field stop; d) two metal electrodes; and e) isolating dielectrics; wherein: the two MOS structures are symmetrically disposed on a top surface and a back surface of the substrate drift layer; the heavily doped source region and the body contact region are disposed in the body region and independent from each other, and both surfaces of the heavily doped source region and the body contact region are connected to one of the two metal electrodes; the gate dielectric is disposed on the wall and the gate conductive material is disposed in the trench; the gate dielectric contacts the heavily doped source region and the body region; the gate dielectric separates the gate conductive material from a channel region of each of the two MOS structures; the isolating dielectrics each is disposed between a surface of the gate conductive material and one of the two metal electrodes; the substrate drift layer adopts a vertical full-super-junction structure, in which, a semiconductor substrate of the substrate drift layer is formed by alternately disposing vertical N-type doped pillars and vertical P-type doped pillars; the vertical N-type doped pillars and the vertical P-type doped pillars satisfy a charge balance principle; each of the two highly doped buried layers is disposed between the substrate drift layer and one of the two MOS structures; the trench gate structure extends downwards into one of the two highly doped buried layers, whereby the gate dielectric further contacts the one of the two highly doped buried layers and the gate dielectric separates the gate conductive material from the one of the two highly doped buried layers; and the body region and the body contact region adopt semiconductor materials of a first conduction type; and the heavily doped source region and the highly doped buried layer adopt semiconductor materials of a second conduction type.
