Implication

Experimental study demonstrates a 17-fold increase in channel mobility in 4H-SiC MOSFETs on the (1120) face, indicating significantly fewer interface traps and lower threshold voltages.

Key Points

  • To evaluate the inversion channel mobility and interface electrical properties of 4H-SiC MOSFETs fabricated on the (112~0) crystal face relative to the standard (0001) face.
  • Fabricated 4H-SiC MOSFETs on both the (112~0) face and the conventional (0001) Si-face.
  • Characterized electrical performance parameters including inversion channel mobility, threshold voltage, and mobility anisotropy.
  • Inversion channel mobility on the (112~0) face reached 95.9 cm2/Vs, which is 17 times higher than the 5.59 cm2/Vs observed on the conventional (0001) Si-face.
  • MOSFETs on the (112~0) face showed a lower threshold voltage, demonstrating fewer negative charges at the MOS interface.
  • Channel mobility exhibited low anisotropy, with a mobility ratio of 0.85 between crystal directions, consistent with bulk electron mobility behavior.
