High Efficiency 1700V 4H-SiC UMOSFET with Local Floating Superjunction

초록/요약

This paper introduces a 4H-SiC UMOSFET structure with improved efficiency. Compared to conventional p-shielding UMOSFET, the proposed 4H-SiC UMOSFET with a local floating superjunction (LFS) exhibits lower on-resistance while maintaining a breakdown voltage of 1700 V. In addition, it shows an improvement in switching loss. To verify the improvement, the conventional p-shielding UMOSFET and the proposed UMOSFET are modeled for energy loss and junction temperature. Also body diode characteristic and UIS test are confirmed. The proposed UMOSFET showed a 48% reduction in the specific on-resistance and a 20.6% reduction in the switching loss. Electrical characteristics is simulated by sentaurus TCAD. And power circuit is simulated with modeled UMOSFET by PSIM, a power circuit simulator.
