摘要
本文提出了一种新型 4H-SiC 沟槽 MOSFET,具有自钳位 P 区(SCP-MOS)。通过引入轻 P 型掺杂浓度区(LP)和额外的 NCSL,提高了击穿电压并抑制了开关振荡。P+ 和 NCSL 形成了一个新的电场调制区,可降低栅极底部的电场,从而提高器件的击穿电压。此外,当 VDS 较小时,LP 区域连接 P 屏蔽和 P+ 源区,P 屏蔽被箝位在低电位,从而有效降低了栅极到漏极电容 (CGD)。随着 VDS 的增加,LP 区逐渐耗尽,导致 P 屏蔽区过渡到浮动状态,P 屏蔽区的电位升高。因此,上述特性有助于实现较低的关断损耗和浪涌电压(VSurge)。SCP-MOS 的浪涌电压比 GP-MOS 低 32%,关断损耗比 FP-MOS 低 85%。总体而言,SCP-MOS 可以实现更好的关断-浪涌权衡。
Self-clamped P-shield 4H-SiC trench MOSFET for low turn-off loss and suppress switching oscillation
A novel 4H-SiC trench MOSFET with self-clamped P-region (SCP-MOS) is proposed. The breakdown voltage is boosted and switching oscillation is suppressed by introducing a lightly P-type doping concentration region (LP) and additional NCSL. P+ and NCSL form a new electric field modulation region that reduces the electric field at the bottom of the gate, resulting in a higher breakdown voltage for the device. Moreover, When VDS is small, the LP region links P-shield and P+ source region, the P-shield is clamped at a low potential, which effectively reduces the gate to drain capacitance (CGD). As VDS increases, the LP region is gradually depleted, causing the P-shield to transition into floating state, the potential in the P-shield region is raised. Consequently, the described characteristics facilitate achieving low turn-off losses and Surge voltage(VSurge). SCP-MOS has 32 % lower surge voltage compared to GP-MOS and 85 % lower turn-off loss compared to FP-MOS. Overall, SCP-MOS can obtain better EOFF-VSurge trade-off.
