4H-SiC DMOSFETs for High Speed Switching Applications
Sei Hyung Ryu,Sumi Krishnaswami,Mrinal K. Das,Jim Richmond,Anant K. Agarwal,John W. Palmour,James D. Scofield +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a 2.5 mW-cm2 4H-SiC power DMOSFET with a device area of 2.1 mm x 2. 1 mm has been demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic Characteristics of 6.2 kV High Voltage 4H-SiC pn Diode with Low Loss
Katsunori Asano,Toshihiko Hayashi,Daisuke Takayama,Yoshitaka Sugawara,Ranbir Singh,John W. Palmour +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a 4H-SiC pin diode with improved termination named mesa JTE has been developed and a high blocking voltage of 6.2kV and a low VF of 4.7V at 100A/cm2 have been achieved.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reliability of SiC Power Devices against Cosmic Ray Neutron Single-Event Burnout
Daniel J. Lichtenwalner,Akin Akturk,J.M. McGarrity,Jim Richmond,Thomas Barbieri,Brett Hull,David Grider,Scott Allen,John W. Palmour +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors have performed accelerated high-energy neutron SEB testing of SiC and Si power devices at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANCSE).
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance and Reliability Impacts of Extended Epitaxial Defects on 4H-SiC Power Devices
Edward Van Brunt,Albert A. Burk,Daniel J. Lichtenwalner,R.T. Leonard,Shadi Sabri,Donald A. Gajewski,Andrew K. Mackenzie,Brett Hull,Scott Allen,John W. Palmour +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of extended epitaxial defects on 4H-SiC power devices were explored, and the authors found that 3C inclusions and triangular defects, as well as heavily decorated substrate scratches, were device killing defects.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
4.5 kV novel high voltage high performance SiC-FET "SIAFET"
TL;DR: In this paper, a high voltage SiC MOS device named SIAFET (Static induction Injected Accumulated FET) is proposed, which has no pn junction in its on-current flow path and has a conductivity modulation by carriers injected from a p+ buried gate.
