Problems solved by technology

However, due to the large bandgap of silicon carbide materials, the turn-on voltage of the parasitic PiN diodes integrated in silicon carbide UMOSFET devices is mostly around 3V, which cannot provide freewheeling for the device itself, resulting in the internal freewheeling capability of silicon carbide UMOSFET devices. weaker
Therefore, in power electronic system applications such as full bridges, an additional Schottky diode is often used in antiparallel as a freewheeling diode, which greatly increases the area of ​​the system
In addition, in the blocking mode, a series of reliability problems will be caused due to the strong electric field of the gate oxide at the corner of the trench

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductors, and in particular relates to a silicon carbide UMOSFET device integrating SBDs. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the continuous development of power electronic systems, higher requirements have been placed on the power devices in the system. Silicon (Si)-based power electronic devices have been unable to meet the requirements of system applications due to the limitations of the material itself. As a representative of the third-generation semiconductor material, silicon carbide (SiC) materials are far better than silicon materials in many characteristics. Silicon carbide MOSFET (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor, Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor) device, as a commercialized device in recent years, has an alternative in terms of on-resistance, switching time, switching loss and heat dissipation performance. The huge potential of the existi...
