Published: May 2024

In this paper, a novel 4H-SiC deep-trench super-junction MOSFET (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor) with a split-gate is proposed and theoretically verified by Sentaurus TCAD simulations. A deep trench filled with P-poly-Si combined with the P-SiC region leads to a charge balance effect. Instead of a full-SiC P region in conventional super-junction MOSFET, this new structure reduces the P region in a super-junction MOSFET, thus helping to lower the specific on-resistance. As a result, the figure of merit (, /) of the proposed new structure is 642% and 39.65% higher than the C-MOS and the SJ-MOS, respectively.

Integrating a Soft Body Diode in the Super-Junction MOSFET by Using an n/n-Buffer Layer.

Micromachines (Basel)

December 2022

School of Microelectronics and Communication Engineering, Chongqing University, Chongqing 400044, China.

In this paper, a novel silicon super-junction (SJ) MOSFET embedded with a soft reverse recovery body diode is proposed and studied by numerical simulation. The device introduces an n-buffer layer between the n-buffer layer and the n-substrate to improve the reverse recovery behaviour of its body diode. The n-buffer layer provides residual carriers during the reverse recovery process, reduces the overshoot voltage, and suppresses oscillation.

In this paper, a 4H-SiC trench gate MOSFET, featuring a super junction layer located on the drain-region side, is presented to enhance the breakdown voltage and the figures of merit (FOM). The proposed structure is investigated and compared with the conventional structure with a 2D numerical simulator-ATLAS. The investigation results have demonstrated that the breakdown voltage in the proposed structure is enhanced by 21.
