Study on Design and Fabrication of Power SIT

전력 SIT 소자의 설계 및 제작에 관한 연구

In this paper, two types of vertical SIT(Static Induction Transistor) structures are proposed to improve their electrical characteristics including the blocking voltage. Besides, the two dimensional numerical simulations were carried out using ISE-TCAD to verify the validity of the device and examine the electrical characteristics. First, a trench gate region oxide power SIT device is proposed to improve forward blocking characteristics. Second, a trench gate-source region power SIT device is proposed to obtain more higher forward blocking voltage and forward blocking characteristics at the same size. The two proposed devices have superior electrical characteristics when compared to conventional device. In the proposed trench gate oxide power SIT, the forward blocking voltage is considerably improved by using the vertical trench oxide and the forward blocking voltage is 1.5 times better than that of the conventional vertical power SIT. In the proposed trench gate-source oxide power SIT, it has considerable improvement in forward blocking characteristics which shows 1500V forward blocking voltage at -10V of the gate voltage. Consequently, the proposed trench oxide power SIT has the superior stability and electrical characteristics than the conventional power SIT.
