Nitridation Effects of Gate Oxide on Channel Properties of SiC Trench MOSFETs

Article Preview

Abstract:

We have studied gate oxide processes for SiC trench MOSFETs. It is demonstrated that nitridation of gate oxide is effective to suppress the variation of channel mobility depending on channel plane orientation and substrate off-angles. In addition, improved channel mobility has been obtained by the combined process of NH3 and N2O POA.
