Evaluations of Gate Oxide Reliability in SiC MOSFETs Under Extremely High Gate Voltage Stress
This study aimed to evaluate the reliability of Silicon Carbide (SiC) Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (MOSFET) under extremely high gate voltage stress. The research results show that SiCMOS has certain robustness to extremely high gate voltage stress. After high positive bias stress (PBS) and high negative bias stress (NBS), degradation at room temperature is mainly caused by the injection of holes. At high temperatures, the increased interface state traps appear to play an important role in the degradation under PBS. Both C-V characteristics and the recovery of devices after stress are used to explain the degradation. Degradation under high PBS might be recoverable. After recovery, the threshold voltage
$(V_{T})$
shift is less than 0.1V. Whereas damage under high NBS is permanent and unrecoverable. Remarkably, the robustness of the device under test to extremely high gate voltage stress is also verified, especially extreme PBS.
期刊介绍:
The scope of the publication includes, but is not limited to Reliability of: Devices, Materials, Processes, Interfaces, Integrated Microsystems (including MEMS & Sensors), Transistors, Technology (CMOS, BiCMOS, etc.), Integrated Circuits (IC, SSI, MSI, LSI, ULSI, ELSI, etc.), Thin Film Transistor Applications. The measurement and understanding of the reliability of such entities at each phase, from the concept stage through research and development and into manufacturing scale-up, provides the overall database on the reliability of the devices, materials, processes, package and other necessities for the successful introduction of a product to market. This reliability database is the foundation for a quality product, which meets customer expectation. A product so developed has high reliability. High quality will be achieved because product weaknesses will have been found (root cause analysis) and designed out of the final product. This process of ever increasing reliability and quality will result in a superior product. In the end, reliability and quality are not one thing; but in a sense everything, which can be or has to be done to guarantee that the product successfully performs in the field under customer conditions. Our goal is to capture these advances. An additional objective is to focus cross fertilized communication in the state of the art of reliability of electronic materials and devices and provide fundamental understanding of basic phenomena that affect reliability. In addition, the publication is a forum for interdisciplinary studies on reliability. An overall goal is to provide leading edge/state of the art information, which is critically relevant to the creation of reliable products.
