고밀도 트렌치 게이트 전력소자 제조를 위해 HBr. He-$O_2$, $SiF_4$, $CF_4$ 등의 식각 가스를 이용하여 형성한, 트렌치 표면 거칠기 및 손상을 최소화 하여 고밀도 트렌치 게이트 전력소자를 제조하였다. 트렌치 형상 각도가 약 900일 경우 항복전압은 약 29 V인 반면, 트렌치 각도가 $88^{\circ}$일 경우 항복전압이 37V로 트렌치 형상에 따라 약 25%의 항복전압이 높아졌음을 알 수 있었다. n-채널 트렌치 게이트 전력소자의 전압-전류 측정 결과 트렌치 게이트 수가 45.000개일 때 게이트에 10 V를 인가했을 때 전류는 약 46 A로 측정되어 고밀도 트렌치 게이트 전력소자의 특성이 좋음을 알 수 있었다.

Analytical Expressions of temperature dependent breakdown voltage and on-resistance for silicon power MOSFETs are induced by employing the temperature dependent effective ionization coefficient extracted from temperature dependent ionization coefficients for electron and hole, and electron mobility in silicon. The analytical results for temperature dependent breakdown voltage are compared with experimental results for tile doping concentration, 4x10$^{14}$ cm$^{-3}$ , 1x10$^{15}$ cm$^{-3}$ , 6x10$^{16}$ cm$^{-3}$ respectively. The variations of temperature dependent on-resistance and breakdown voltage dependent ideal specific on-resistance are also compared with the ones reported previously. Good fits with the experimental results ate found for the breakdown voltages within 10% in error for the temperature in the range of 77~300K at each doping concentration.

Ni/Au 쇼트키 접합의 산화를 통해 항복전압이 증가하고 누설 전류가 감소한 수평방향 GaN 쇼트키 장벽 다이오드를 제작하였다. 산화 과정 후, 턴-온 전압이 미세하게 증가하였으며 높은 애노드 전압하에서 애노드 전류가 증가하였다. 5분과 10분의 산화 과정 후, 누설 전류는 1nA 이하 수준으로 현저히 감소하였다. Edge Termination 방법으로 Floating Metal Ring을 사용하고, 산화 과정을 적용하여 제안된 GaN 쇼트키 장벽 다이오드의 항복전압은 750볼트의 큰 값을 얻을 수 있었다. 상온과 $125^{\circ}C$ 에서 제작한 GaN 쇼트키 장벽 다이오드의 역방향 회복 파형도 측정하였으며, 제작한 소자는 매우 빠른 역방향 회복 특성을 보였다.

본 논문은 수직형 트랜치 IGBT 구조에서 에미터를 트랜치로 형성하여 그 전기적인 특성을 MEDICI를 이용하여 고찰하였다. 제안한 구조의 항복전압과 온-상태 전압, 래치업 전류 그리고 턴-오프 시간이 기존 트랜치 IGBT에 비하여 향상되었음을 알 수 있었다. 항복전압은 트랜치 에미터에 의해 트랜치 게이트에 집중되는 전계를 완화시켜 일반적인 트랜치 IGBT보다 19%정도 향상되었으며 온-상태 전압과 래치업 전류는 각각 25%, 16% 정도 향상되었다. 하지만 제안된 구조의 턴-오프 시간은 무시할 수 있을 정도로 약간 증가하였음을 알 수 있었다.

In this paper, an effective ionization coefficient for 4H-SiC is extracted in the form of c .E$^{m}$ from ionization coefficients of electron and hole. Analytical expressions for critical electric field and breakdown voltage of 4H-SiC p$^{+}$n junction are derived by employing the effective ionization coefficient. The analytic results agree well with the experimental ones reported within 10% in error for the doping concentration in the range of 10$^{15}$ cm$^{-3}$ ~10$^{18}$ cm$^{-3}$ . .

Silicon Carbide(SiC) has large advantage in high temperature and high voltage applications because of its high thermal conductivity and large band gap energy. When using SiC to design power semiconductor devices, edge termination techniques have to be adjusted for its maximum breakdown voltage characteristics. Many edge termination techniques have been proposed, and the most appropriate technique for SiC device is Junction Termination Extension(JTE). In this paper, the change of breakdown voltage efficiency ratio according to the change of doping concentration and passivation oxide charge of each JTE techniques is demonstrated. As a result, the maximum breakdown voltage ratio of Single Zone JTE(SZ-JTE), Double Zone JTE(DZ-JTE), Multiple Floating Zone JTE(MFZ-JTE), and Space Modulated JTE(SM-JTE) is 98.24%, 99.02%, 98.98%, 99.22% each. MFZ-JTE has the smallest and SZ-JTE has the largest sensitivity of breakdown voltage ratios according to the change of JTE doping concentration. Additionally the degradation of breakdown voltage due to the passivation oxide charge is analyzed, and the sensitivity is largest in SZ-JTE and smallest in MFZ-JTE, too. In this paper, DZ-JTE and SM-JTE is the best efficiency JTE techniques than MFZ-JTE which needs large doping concentration in short JTE width.

Analytical models for breakdown voltage and specific on-resistance of 4H-silicon carbide Schottky diodes have been derived successfully by extracting an effective ionization coefficient $\gamma$ from ionization coefficients $\alpha$ and $\beta$ for electron and hole in 4H-SiC. The breakdown voltages extracted from our analytical model are compared with experimental results. The specific on-resistance as a function of doping concentration is also compared with the ones reported previously. Good fits with the experimental results are found for the breakdown voltage within 10% in error for the doping concentration in the range of about $10^{15}{\sim}10^{18}\;cm^{-3}$. The analytical results show good agreement with the experimental data for the specific on-resistance in the range of $3{\times}10^{15}{\sim}2{\times}10^{16}\;cm^{-3}$.

In this paper, we analyzed the characteristics of schottky junction to develop the voltage swing of ISL, and simulated the characteristics with the programs at this junctions. Simulation programs for analytic characteristics are the SUPREM V, SPICE, Medichi, Matlab. The schottky junction is rectifier contact between platinum silicide and silicon, the characteristics with programs has simulated the same conditions. The analytic parameters were the turn-on voltage, saturation current, ideality factor in forward bias, and has shown the results of breakdown voltage between actual characteristics and simulation characteristics in reverse bias. As a result, th forward turn-on voltage, reverse breakdown voltage, barrier height were decreased but saturation current and ideality factor were increased by substrates increased concentration variations.

In this study, an 4H-SiC Trench MOS Barrier Schottky (TMBS) rectifier which utilizes the trapezoid mesa structure and the upper half of the trench sidewall is proposed to improve the forward voltage drop and reverse blocking voltage concurrently. The proposed 4H-SiC TMBS rectifier reduces the forward voltage drop by 12% compared to the conventional 4H-SiC TMBS rectifier with the tilted sidewall and improves the reverse blocking voltage by 11% with adjusting the length of the upper sidewall. The Silvaco T-CAD was used to analyze the electrical characteristics.
