摘要
A novel planar accumulation channel SIC MOSFET structure is reported in this paper. The problems of gate oxide rupture and poor channel conductance previously reported in SiC UMOSFET's are solved by using a buried P+ layer to shield the channel region. The fabricated 6H-SiC unterminated devices had a blocking voltage of 350 V with a specific on-resistance of 18 m Omega.cm(2) at room temperature for a gate bias of only 5 V. This measured specific on-resistance is within 2.5x of the value calculated for the epitaxial drift region (10(16) cm(-3), 10 mu m), which is capable of supporting 1500 V.
