چکیده
In this paper, a high voltage normally-off trenched-and-implanted vertical JFET (TIVJFET) in 4H-SiC is investigated by way of two-dimensional numerical simulations. The structure is simple to fabricate and is expected to be able to achieve a high current density. Detailed designs are presented for 1.7kV to 14kV normally-off 4H-SiC VJFETs. A good agreement has been reached between computer modeling and experimental 1.7kV normally-off TI-VJFET in 4H-SiC. The fabricated 1.7kV device shows a VB 2 /Ron,sp value of 827MW/cm 2 at room temperature, which represents a substantial performance improvement to the state-of-the-art.

متن کاملDiode-Free Synchronous Rectification using a SiC Trench JFET
The reverse conduction mode of operation of the SiC trench JFET allows for diode-free synchronous rectification. This paper shows that the reverse conduction mode is an inherent property of the device caused by diffusion of electrons through the source fingers under conditions of moderate gate-drain diode forward bias. Experimental results confirm the expectations for a vertical-channel SiC JFE...
