. Silicon carbide (SiC) SITs were fabricated using home-grown epi structures. The gate is a recessed gate - bottom contact (RG - B). We designed that the mesa space 2.7μm and the gate channel is 1.2μm. One cell has 400 source fingers and each source finger width is 100μm. 1mm SiC SIT yielded a current density of 123mA/mm of drain current at a drain voltage of 20V. A maximum current density of 150 mA/mm was achieved with Vd=40V. The device blocking voltage with a gate bias of-16 V was 200 V. Packaged 24-cm devices were evaluated using amplifier circuits designed for class AB operations. A total power output in excess of 213 W was obtained with a power density of 8.5 W/cm and gain of 8.5 dB at 500 MHz under pulse operation.
600V-30A 4H-SiC Junction Barrier Schottky(JBS)diodes were designed and fabricated using SiC epitaxy and device technology. SiC JBS diodes were packaged in Si IGBT module,and switching measurements were done at 125°C. As free-wheeling diode for Si IGBT, 600V SiC JBS diode was compared to 600V ultra-fast diode from International Rectifier. SiC diode achieved 90% recovery loss reduction and corresponding IGBT showed 30% lower turn-on loss. However, SiC JBS diode has larger on-state voltage drop due to small chip area. On-state power loss will be lowered by increasing SiC chip area.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
