Improved 4H-SiC MOS Interface Produced by Oxidized-SiN Gate Oxide

Article Preview

Abstract:

We have investigated the electrical and physical properties of the oxidized-SiN with or without post oxidation annealing (POA) in N2 gas. A significant reduction in interface-trap density (Dit) has been observed in the oxidized-SiN with N2 POA for 60 min if compared with other oxides. The reason for this has been explained in this paper.
