Journal ArticleDOI
Stacking fault expansion from basal plane dislocations converted into threading edge dislocations in 4H-SiC epilayers under high current stress
Kazuya Konishi,Shigehisa Yamamoto,Shuhei Nakata,Yu Nakamura,Yosuke Nakanishi,Takanori Tanaka,Yoichiro Mitani,Nobuyuki Tomita,Yoshihiko Toyoda,Satoshi Yamakawa +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the stacking faults (SFs) expansion from basal plane dislocations (BPDs) converted into threading edge dislocation (TEDs) under the current stress to the pn devices and analyze the nucleation site of the SF by combined polishing, chemical etching in molten KOH, photoluminescence imaging, focus ion beam, transmission electron microscopy, and Time-of-Flight secondary ion mass spectrometer techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI
Demonstration of SiC-MOSFET embedding Schottky barrier diode for inactivation of parasitic body diode
Shiro Hino,Hatta Hideyuki,Koji Sadamatsu,Y. Nagahisa,Shigehisa Yamamoto,T. Iwamatsu,Yasuki Yamamoto,Masayuki Imaizumi,Shuhei Nakata,Satoshi Yamakawa +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an external Schottky barrier diodes (SBD) is used to suppress the conduction of the body diode of an MOSFET, which can reduce the total chip size of high voltage modules.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of 3.3 kV SiC-MOSFET: Suppression of Forward Voltage Degradation of the Body Diode
TL;DR: In this article, an internal body diode, which forms in a MOSFET parasitically, can be designed as a free-wheeling diode in substitution for an external Schottky barrier diode (SBD).
Journal ArticleDOI
Driving Force of Stacking Fault Expansion in 4H-SiC PN Diode by In Situ Electroluminescence Imaging
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the velocity of stacking faults (SFs) expansion under various current and temperature levels on the pn diodes by electroluminescence (EL) observation in situ.
Patent
Silicon carbide chip, silicon carbide wafer, test method for silicon carbide chip, and test method for silicon carbide wafer
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a test method for a silicon carbide wafer with a test region and a PN diode that is not involved in an actual action of a smaller area than the product chip region.
