Abstract:Due to the introduction of N Bottom Assist Layer (NBAL), the superjunction structure of relatively small aspect ratio could be used in 4HSiC semisuperjunction vertical doublediffused metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (VDMOSFET), so that the cost and difficulty of manufacturing process could be reduced. In this paper, a twodimensional simulation structure of the device is established based on the device simulator Atlas. The single event burnout (SEB) effect of 4HSiC semi-super-junction VDMOSFET and 4H-SiC superjunction VDMOSFET are comparatively studied, then the influence of NBAL doping concentration on the antiSEB ability of 4H-SiC semi-super-junction VDMOSFET is studied. The results show that, under condition of the same drain voltage, the peak value of the electric field in the N- drift/N+ substrate junction of semisuperjunction VDMOSFET is 27% lower than the counterpart of the superjunction VDMOSFET owing to the NBAL. The SEB threshold voltage (VSEB) of superjunction VDMOSFET is 920 V, while the counterpart of semi-super-junction VDMOSFET is 1 010 V, so that the anti-SEB capability of semi-super-junction VDMOSFET increases by 10% when compared with super-junction VDMOSFET. With the gradual increasing of NBALdoping concentration, the anti-SEB ability of VDMOSFET is firstly enhanced and then weakened, i. e., there is an optimal doping concentration of NBAL to make the ability of the anti-SEB the strongest.
