In this paper, the 1,700 V level SiC-based power MOSFET device widely used in electric vehicles and new energy industries was designed, that is, a single trench gate power MOSFET structure and a double trench gate power MOSFET structure were proposed to analyze electrical characteristics while changing the design and process parameters. As a result of comparing and analyzing the two structures, it can be seen that the double trench gate structure shows quite excellent characteristics according to the concentration of the drift layer, and the breakdown voltage characteristics according to the depth of the drift layer also show excellent characteristics of 200 V or more. Among them, the trench gate power MOSFET device can be applied not only to the 1,700 V class but also to a voltage range above it, and it is believed that it can replace all Si devices currently applied to electric vehicles and new energy industries.

The development of high voltage Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) have given new device advantage in the areas where they compete with conventional GTO (Gate Turnoff Thyristor) technology. The IGBT combines the advantages of a power MOSFET (Metal-Oxide Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor) and a bipolar power transistor. The change of electrical characteristics for IGBT is mainly coming from the change of characteristics of MOSFET at the input gate and the PNP transistors at the output. The gate oxide structure gives the main influence on the changes in the electrical characteristics affected by environments such as radiation and temperature, etc.. The change of threshold voltage, which is one of the important design parameters, is brought by charge trapping at the gate oxide. In this paper, the electrical characteristics are simulated by SPICE simulation, and the parameters are found to design optimized circuits.

${\bullet}$ Silicon Carbide (SiC) had excellent material properties as the base material for next generation of power semiconductor. In developing SiC MOSFET, gate oxide reliability issues had to be first overcome before commercial application. Besides, a high and stable gate-source voltage threshold $V_{GS(th)}$ is also an important parameter for operation robustness. SiC MOSFET with such characteristics can directly use existing high-speed IGBT gate driver IC's. ${\bullet}$ The linear voltage drop characteristics of SiC MOSFET will bring lower conduction loss averaged over full AC cycle compared to similarly rate IGBT. Lower switching loss enable higher switching frequency. Using package with auxiliary source terminal for gate driving will further reduce switching losses. Dynamic characteristics can fully controlled by simple gate resistors. ${\bullet}$ The low switching losses characteristics of SiC MOSFET can substantially reduce power losses in high switching frequency operation. Significant power loss reduction is also possible even at low switching frequency and low switching speed. in T-type 3-level topology, SiC MOSFET solution enable three times higher switching freqeuncy at same efficiency.

In this paper, the electrical characteristics of pentacene thin film transistors(TFTs) with stacked and surface-treated gate insulators have been investigated. The semiconductor layer of pentacene was thermally evaporated onto the stacked gate insulators. For the gate insulating materials. PVP(PolyvinylPhenol) and polystyrene were spin-coated with two different stacking orders, PVP-polystyrene and polystyrene-PVP. Rapid solvent evaporation during the spin-coating processes of these insulating layers produces non-equilibrium phase morphologies accompanied by surface undulations on gate insulator interfaces. This non-equilibrium phase morphology affects the growth mode of the subsequent pentacene layer. Therefore, in order to smoothen the gate dielectric surfaces, gate dielectric surfaces were rubbed laterally along the direction from the drain to the source TFTs with with stacked and surface-treated gate insulators have provided improved operational characteristics.

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.

The DC and RF characteristics of $In_{0.5}Ga_{0.5}P/In_{0.22}Ga_{0.78}As/GaAs$ p-HEMTs with a gate oxide layer of various thicknesses ($50{\;}{\AA},{\;}300{\;}{\AA}$) were investigated and compared with those of a Schottky-gate p-HEMT without the gate oxide layer. A prominent improvement in the breakdown voltage characteristics were observed for a p-HEMT having a gate oxide layer, which was implemented by using a liquid phase oxidation technique. The on-state breakdown voltage of the p-HEMT having the oxide layer of $50{\;}{\AA}$was ~2.3 times greater than that of a Schottky-gate p-HEMT. However, the p-HEMT having the gate oxide layer of $300{\;}{\AA}$ suffered from a poor gate-control capability due to the drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL) resulting from the thick gate oxide inspite of the lower gate leakage current and the higher on-state breakdown voltage. The results for a primitive p-HEMT having the gate oxide layer without any optimization of the structure and the process indicate the potential of p-HEMT having the gate oxide layer for high-power applications.

The recessed gate IGBT has a lower on-state voltage drop compared with the DMOS IGBT, because there is no JFET resistance. But because of the electric field concentration in the corner of the gate edge, the breakdown voltage decreases. This paper is about the new structure to effectively improve the Vce(sat) voltage without breakdown voltage drop in 1700V NPT type recessed gate IGBT with p floating shielding layer. For the fabrication of the recessed gate IGBT with p floating shielding layer, it is necessary to perform the only one implant step for the shielding layer. Analysis on the Breakdown voltage shows the improved values compared to the conventional recessed gate IGBT structures. The result shows the improvement on Breakdown voltage without worsening other characteristics of the device. The electrical characteristics were studied by MEDICI simulation results.
