摘要
In this work, we studied the behavior of gate oxide (GOx) breakdown of 1200V 4H-SiC DMOSFETs by a screening process of voltage ramp (vramp). By employing vramp between 40-50V on a 50nm GOx, early failures below 50V, which could be infant or extrinsic failures in time-dependent-dielectric-breakdown (TDDB) testing, were screened out. In addition, the results indicate that early failures correlate to the density of large pit defects on epi-wafer as well as to gate area of the devices, which have implications on the epi quality required for MOSFETs and for achievable yield on large-area SiC MOSFETs screened for long-term gate reliability. We also identified an electric field limit on the screening voltage, above which the traditional upward drift of threshold voltage (V Th ) due to positive gate bias transitions to a downward drift, which can seriously degrade device performance.
