Guaranteeing the reliability of gate oxides is one of the most important topics to realize regarding the SiC power MOSFET.

When power MOSFETs experience a voltage spike initiating avalanche generation, a large amount of power is dissipated at the device junction.

Therefore, keeping MOSFETs off by applying a negative gate bias should improve avalanche ruggedness.

Abstract:
A new silicon carbide (SiC) planar-gate insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) is proposed and comprehensively investigated in this paper. Compared to the traditional SiC planar-gate IGBT, the new IGBT boasts a much stronger injection enhancement effect, which leads to a low on-state voltage (VON) approaching the SiC trench-gate IGBT. The strong injection enhancement effect is obtained by a heavily doped carrier storage layer (CSL), which creates a hole barrier under the p-body to hinder minority carriers from being extracted away through the p-body. A p-shield is located at the bottom of th

In this paper, the short-circuit robustness of 1200 V silicon carbide (SiC) trench MOSFETs with different gate structures has been investigated. The MOSFETs exhibited different failure modes under different DC bus voltages. For double trench SiC MOSFETs, failure modes are gate failure at lower dc bus voltages and thermal runaway at higher dc bus voltages, while failure modes for asymmetric trench SiC MOSFETs are soft failure and thermal runaway, respectively. The shortcircuit withstanding time (SCWT) of the asymmetric trench MOSFET is higher than that of the double trench MOSFETs. The thermal

This paper focuses on the evaluation of subsequent process steps (post-trench processes, PTPs) after 4H silicon carbide (4H-SiC) trench etching with respect to the electrical performance of trenched gate metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (Trench-MOSFETs). Two different types of PTP were applied after 4H-SiC trench formation, a high temperature post-trench anneal (PTA) [1] and a sacrificial oxidation (SacOx) [2]. We found significantly improved electrical properties of Planar-MOS structures using a SacOx as PTP, prior to gate oxide deposition. Besides excellent quasi-static cap

We aim at the optimum 4H-SiC post-trench treatment with respect to the fabrication and the operation of a trenched gate metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (Trench-MOSFET). PTA significantly reduces micro-trenches, also called sub-trenches [, in the corners of the bottom of the trench.

For the N+/P- junction trench gate, the P- polysilicon located in the bottom of the trench plays the role of insulating layer, which efficiently reduces the gate charge (QG), thus increasing the switching speed and reducing the switching loss.

Compared with a conventional P+ shield device, our proposed structure achieves a 78% reduction in the Qgd and a 108% increase in the FoM (figure of merit) simultaneously.
