This paper presents a novel high-voltage lateral double diffused metal-oxide semiconductor (LDMOS) with selfadaptive interface charge (SAC) layer and its physical model of the vertical interface electric field. The SAC can be self-adaptive to collect high concentration dynamic inversion holes, which effectively enhance the electric field of dielectric buried layer (E I ) and increase breakdown voltage (BV). The BV and E I of SAC LDMOS increase to 612 V and 600 V/µm from 204 V and 90.7 V/µm of the conventional silicon-on-insulator, respectively. Moreover, enhancement factors of η which present the enhanced ability of interface charge on E I are defined and analysed.
This paper studies two-dimensional analysis of the surface state effect on current gain for a 4H–SiC bipolar junction transistor (BJT). Simulation results indicate the mechanism of current gain degradation, which is surface Fermi level pinning leading to a strong downward bending of the energy bands to form the channel of surface electron recombination current. The experimental results are well-matched with the simulation, which is modeled by exponential distributions of the interface state density replacing the single interface state trap. Furthermore, the simulation reveals that the oxide quality of the base emitter junction interface is very important for 4H–SiC BJT performance.
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.
