Impact of Fabrication Process on Electrical Properties and on Interfacial Density of States in 4H-SiC n-MOSFETs Studied by Hall Effect

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this work, electrical properties of lateral n-channel MOSFETs implanted with differentnitrogen doses in the channel region were measured by Hall-effect technique at 300K. A mobility improvement with increasing nitrogen implantation doses is observed. Interface trap density (Dit) was determined from the experimentally measured Hall carrier density. Our results show a high Dit near and within the conduction band that does not change significantly when the nitrogen implantation dose is increased, despite observed mobility improvement.
