Due to the consideration that conventional Far-UVC KrCl excilamps may emit 200-230 nm radiation (typically 222-nm peak wavelength) but with some harmful UV radiation beyond 230 to 280 nm, a novel design of Far-UVC KrCl excilamps with the filter and reflector is introduced to reduce the harmful UV radiation from 10.9% to 2.5% at the cost of 30%~40% reduction in the total irradiance. In our study, the radiant characteristics and service life of the novel Far-UVC KrCl excilamps of 40~75 Watt (electrical power) with 222-nm peak wavelength were investigated. The service life was assessed under aging at the ambient temperatures (Ta) of 25 ℃ and 85 ℃ for 500 hours, respectively. The results showed that both the ambient temperature and the root mean square of current (Irms) into the excilamps have a substantial effect on the lifetime of the KrCl excilamps. Furthermore, although no significant change of the off-nominal emission ratio existed during the lifetime test, it was observed that the high ambient temperature has a negative effect on the filtering of the harmful radiation.","PeriodicalId":145298,"journal":{"name":"2022 19th China International Forum on Solid State Lighting & 2022 8th International Forum on Wide Bandgap Semiconductors (SSLCHINA: IFWS)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123983856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is reported that repeated avalanche stresses can cause changes, including Vth (the threshold voltage) and Ron (on-state resistance) but not Igss (gate leakage current). However, the results show a significant decrease in the TDDB lifetime after 180k avalanche cycles, which suggests the degradation of the gate oxide. We attribute these results to defects at the SiC/SiO2 interface, which are caused by hot hole injection and trapping into the gate oxide above the channel and JFET region. The subthreshold curve analysis reveals that the density of the interface states changes during aging experiments, which further confirms our view. Meanwhile, interface states should be responsible for the increase in Ron, which was different from the previously research.","PeriodicalId":145298,"journal":{"name":"2022 19th China International Forum on Solid State Lighting & 2022 8th International Forum on Wide Bandgap Semiconductors (SSLCHINA: IFWS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130805253","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The short-circuit performance under 400V, 600V, and 800V bus voltage is tested. And two failure modes are discovered. The 3D TCAD simulations, Emission Microscope (EMMI), and Focused ion beam (FIB) are used to investigate the short-circuit failure mechanisms. Under 400V and 600V bus voltage, the interlayer dielectric between the source and the gate is damaged due to the high temperature generated in the short-circuit process, and the melted source metal Al is connected to the gate polysilicon, causing short circuit of the gate and source electrodes. Compared with commercial devices, the short-circuit capability of the device with PSL is improved by 3 to 7μs under 400V bus voltage. Under 800V bus voltage, the thermal power is almost twice that of 400V, which reduces the short circuit withstanding time (SCWT) of the device rapidly to just over 5µs. Due to such high instantaneous power, the device failure is characterized by the short circuit between the three electrodes, and thermal runaway is the cause of failure in this situation.","PeriodicalId":145298,"journal":{"name":"2022 19th China International Forum on Solid State Lighting & 2022 8th International Forum on Wide Bandgap Semiconductors (SSLCHINA: IFWS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127781040","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the package structure of high-voltage IGBT modules will have parasitic inductance that cannot be ignored. Stray inductance will cause problems in various switching devices. It should be minimized early to avoid future redesign. Therefore, this paper starts from the analysis of half bridge IGBT module, uses Soildworks software to establish the IGBT high-voltage module model, uses ANSYS Simpler to import the chip parameters into the model schematic diagram, builds the schematic circuit, and simulates the impact of parasitic inductance at different positions in the circuit on circuit opening and closing. At the same time, the finite element software ANSYS is used to extract the parasitic inductance distribution of the module. In view of the problems such as overshoot voltage and electromagnetic interference caused by parasitic inductance during switching in practical applications, this paper proposes an improved method for half bridge IGBT module packaging, including the improvement of arc height of grid bonding wire and the optimization of local layout. The simulation results have certain reference significance for IGBT module design and electromagnetic compatibility. The improved structure will achieve significant effective power conversion and higher switching frequency.","PeriodicalId":145298,"journal":{"name":"2022 19th China International Forum on Solid State Lighting & 2022 8th International Forum on Wide Bandgap Semiconductors (SSLCHINA: IFWS)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115335999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
