본 논문에서는 기존 4H-SiC SJ UMOSFET 구조의 p-pillar을 기존 UMOSFET의 shielding 영역 아래로 배치시키는 SC-SJ(Shielding Connected-Super Junction) UMOSFET 구조를 제안한다. 제안한 SC-SJ UMOSFET의 경우 p-pillar와 shielding 영역이 공존하여 산화막에서 전계에 의한 항복이 발생하지 않도록 하며, 이는 pillar의 도핑 농도 상승을 가능하게 한다. 결과적으로 온저항을 낮춤으로서 소자의 정적 특성을 개선한다. Sentaurus TCAD 시뮬레이션을 통해 기존 구조와 제안한 구조의 정적 특성을 비교, 분석하였다. 제안한 SC-SJ UMOSFET은 기존 구조에 비해 항복전압의 변화 없이 50% 감소된 온저항을 얻을 수 있다.

탄화규소(Silicon Carbide) 기반의 1200 V급 Merged Pin Schottky(MPS) 다이오드의 구조를 2D-atlas simulation tool을 사용하여 최적화 및 설계하였다. 최적화된 항복전압과 온-저항 값을 얻기 위해 본 소자에서 중요한 파라미터인 P-Grid의 도핑농도와 에피층의 도핑농도를 각각 $2{\sim}10{\times}10^{17}cm^{-3}$, $2{\sim}10{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}$으로 변화시키면서 소자의 전기적 특성을 분석하였으며, 그 후 P-Grid의 Space값을 $1{\sim}5{\mu}m$로 설계하여 이에 따른 항복전압과 온-저항의 값을 확인하였다. 항복전압과 온-저항은 서로 trade-off 관계에 있기 때문에 각 변수에서 도출된 값들을 Baliga's Figure Of Merit (BFOM)식에 대입하여 비교하였다. 그 결과 고전압 소자에 적용 가능한 1200 V급 4H-SiC MPS다이오드를 최적화 및 설계를 도출하였다.

A study on the oxidation of SiO2 sensing layer was done at 950, 1000, 105$0^{\circ}C$ under dry O2 atmosphere. The rate determining step around the oxide layer thickness, 1000$\AA$ was different with the oxidation temperature, as follows ; ⅰ) linear growth at 95$0^{\circ}C$ and ⅱ) parabolic growth at 100$0^{\circ}C$ and 105$0^{\circ}C$. The flatness of SiO2 film was observed within $\pm$1% and surface state charge density was reduced by annealing in N2 atmosphere. Finally, pH sensitivity of SiO2 film, in the range of pH 3-9, was 20mV/pH.

Reverse annealing was observed in $P^+/B^+$ ion shower doped poly-Si upon activation annealing. Phosphorous or boron was implanted by ion shower doping using a source gas mixture of $PH_3/H_2$ or $B_2H_6/H_2$. Activation annealing was conducted using a tube furnace in the temperature ranges from $350^{\circ}C$ to $650^{\circ}C$. Hall measurement revealed that reverse annealing begins at different annealing temperatures for poly-Si implanted with P and B, respectively. It was observed that reverse annealing starts at $550^{\circ}C$$ in $P^+$ ion shower doped poly-Si, while at $350^{\circ}C$ in the case of B-doping.

For boron doping on n-type silicon wafer, around $1,000^{\circ}C$ doping temperature is required, because of the relatively low solubility of boron in a crystalline silicon comparing to the phosphorus case. Boron doping by fiber laser annealing and lamp furnace heat treatment were carried out for the uniformly deposited p-a-Si:H layer. Since the uniformly deposited p-a-Si:H layer by cluster is highly needed to be doped with high temperature heat treatment. Amorphous silicon layer absorption range for fiber laser did not match well to be directly annealed. To improve the annealing effect, we introduce additional lamp furnace heat treatment. For p-a-Si:H layer with the ratio of $SiH_4:B_2H_6:H_2$=30:30:120, at $200^{\circ}C$, 50 W power, 0.2 Torr for 30 min. $20\;mm\;{\times}\;20\;mm$ size fiber laser cut wafers were activated by Q-switched fiber laser (1,064 nm) with different sets of power levels and periods, and for the lamp furnace annealing, $980^{\circ}C$ for 30 min heat treatment were implemented. To make the sheet resistance expectable and uniform as important processes for the $p^+$ layer on a polished n-type silicon wafer of (100) plane, the Q-switched fiber laser used. In consequence of comparing the results of lifetime measurement and sheet resistance relation, the fiber laser treatment showed the trade-offs between the lifetime and the sheet resistance as $100\;{\omega}/sq.$ and $11.8\;{\mu}s$ vs. $17\;{\omega}/sq.$ and $8.2\;{\mu}s$. Diode level device was made to confirm the electrical properties of these experimental results by measuring C-V(-F), I-V(-T) characteristics. Uniform and expectable boron heavy doped layers by fiber laser and lamp furnace are not only basic and essential conditions for the n-type crystalline silicon solar cell fabrication processes, but also the controllable doping concentration and depth can be established according to the deposition conditions of layers.

In this work, we have investigated the dependence of annealing temperature(T$\_$a/) on optical and electrical properties of amorphous hydrogenated SiC(a-SiC:H) films. The a-SiC:H films were deposited on corning glass and p-type Si(100) wafer by PECVD (plasma enhanced vapor deposition) using SiH$_4$+CH$_4$+N$_2$ gas mixture. The experimental results have shown that the optical energy band gap(E$\_$opt/)of the thin films annealed at high temperatures have shown that the graphitization of carbon clusters and micro-crystalline silicon occurs. The current-voltage characteristics have shown good electrical properties at the annealed films.

Boron doping on an n-type Si wafer is requisite process for IBC (Interdigitated Back Contact) solar cells. Fiber laser annealing is one of boron doping methods. For the boron doping, uniformly coated or deposited film is highly required. Plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) method provides a uniform dopant film or layer which can facilitate doping. Because amorphous silicon layer absorption range for the wavelength of fiber laser does not match well for the direct annealing. In this study, to enhance thermal affection on the existing p-a-Si:H layer, a ${\mu}c$-Si:H intrinsic layer was deposited on the p-a-Si:H layer additionally by PECVD. To improve heat transfer rate to the amorphous silicon layer, and as heating both sides and protecting boron eliminating from the amorphous silicon layer. For p-a-Si:H layer with the ratio of $SiH_4$ : $B_2H_6$ : $H_2$ = 30 : 30 : 120, at $200^{\circ}C$, 50 W, 0.2 Torr for 30 minutes, and for ${\mu}c$-Si:H intrinsic layer, $SiH_4$ : $H_2$ = 10 : 300, at $200^{\circ}C$, 30 W, 0.5 Torr for 60 minutes, 2 cm $\times$ 2 cm size wafers were used. In consequence of comparing the results of lifetime measurement and sheet resistance relation, the laser condition set of 20 ~ 27 % of power, 150 ~ 160 kHz, 20 ~ 50 mm/s of marking speed, and $10\;{\sim}\;50 {\mu}m$ spacing with continuous wave mode of scanner lens showed the correlation between lifetime and sheet resistance as $100\;{\Omega}/sq$ and $11.8\;{\mu}s$ vs. $17\;{\Omega}/sq$ and $8.2\;{\mu}s$. Comparing to the singly deposited p-a-Si:H layer case, the additional ${\mu}c$-Si:H layer for doping resulted in no trade-offs, but showed slight improvement of both lifetime and sheet resistance, however sheet resistance might be confined by the additional intrinsic layer. This might come from the ineffective crystallization of amorphous silicon layer. For the additional layer case, lifetime and sheet resistance were measured as $84.8\;{\Omega}/sq$ and $11.09\;{\mu}s$ vs. $79.8\;{\Omega}/sq$ and $11.93\;{\mu}s$. The co-existence of $n^+$layeronthesamesurfaceandeliminating the laser damage should be taken into account for an IBC solar cell structure. Heavily doped uniform boron layer by fiber laser brings not only basic and essential conditions for the beginning step of IBC solar cell fabrication processes, but also the controllable doping concentration and depth that can be established according to the deposition conditions of layers.

Silicon carbide (SiC) has attracted significant attention for high frequency, high temperature and high power devices due to its superior properties such as the large band gap, high breakdown electric field, high saturation velocity and high thermal conductivity. We performed Al ion implantation processes on n-type 4H-SiC substrate using a SILVACO ATHENA numerical simulator. The ion implantation model used a Monte-Carlo method. We studied the effect of channeling by Al implantation simulation in both 0 off-axis and 8 off-axis n-type 4H-SiC substrate. We have investigated the Al distribution in 4H-SiC through the variation of the implantation energies and the corresponding ratio of the doses. The implantation energies controlled 40, 60, 80, 100 and 120 keV and the implantation doses varied from $2\times10^{14}$ to $1\times10^{15}cm^{-2}$. In the simulation results, the Al ion distribution was deeper as increasing implantation energy and the doping level increased as increasing implantation doses. After the post-implantation annealing, the electrical properties of Al-implanted p-n junction diode were investigated by SILV ACO ATLAS numerical simulator.

반응결합 탄화규소(RBSC) 반응관을 보호하기 위하여, 반응결합 탄화규소 기판 위에 탄화규소를 1~10 범위의 입력기체비(${\alpha}=P_{H2}/P_{MTS}=Q_{H2}/Q_{MTS}$)와 1050~1300$^{\circ}C$범위의 증착온도에서 methyltrichlorosilane(MTS)로부터 수소분위기에서 저압화학기상법으로 증착하였다. 1250$^{\circ}C$의 증착온도에서 입력기체비가 감소함에 따라 증착속도는 증가하다가 감소하였다 입력기체비가 높을 때에는 (111) 우선배향성을 나타내고 과립형의 미세구조를 보이며, 입력기체비가 작을 경우에는 (220) 우선배향성을 가지는 마면주상의 미세구조가 관찰되었다. 증착온도가 증가함에 따라 입력기체비와 비슷하게 미세구조의 변화하는결과를 얻었으며, 이러한 결과는 증착기구의 변화와 밀접한 관련이 있다. 일정한 증착온도에서 입력기체비의 조정를 통하여 얻었으며, 이러한 결과는 증착기구의 변화와 밀접한 관련이 있다. 일정한 증착온도에서 입력기체비의 조절을 통하여 과립형과 미면주상의 미세구조를 함께 가지는 복층구조를 연속공정을 통하여 성공적으로 제조하였다.
