600 V PIN Diodes Fabricated Using On-Axis 4H Silicon Carbide

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper reports the fabrication and electrical characterization of PiN diodes on an on-axis grown epitaxial layer. TCAD simulations have been performed in order to design their architecture. Some of these diodes have a breakdown voltage around 600 V. A comparison is made with similar diodes fabricated on off-cut grown layers. Computer simulations are used to explain lower breakdown voltage than those expected.
