摘要
We report the characteristics of large area (3.3 x 3.3 mm(2)) high-voltage 4H-SiC DiMOSFETs. The MOSFETs show a peak MOS channel mobility of 22 cm(2)/V.s and a threshold voltage of 8.5 V at room temperature. The DiMOSFETs exhibit an on-resistance of 42 mOmega.cm(2) at room temperature and 85 mOmega.cm(2) at 200degreesC. Stable avalanche characteristics at approximately 2.4 kV are observed. An on-current of 10 A is measured on a 0.103 cm(2) device. High switching speed is also demonstrated. This suggests that the devices are capable of high-voltage, high-frequency, low-loss switching applications.
