Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor technology, and in particular to a double-sided epitaxial layer silicon carbide metal-oxide field effect transistor power device. Background Art
[0002] Although silicon is the most widely used semiconductor in electronics, recent studies have shown that it has certain limitations, especially in high-power applications. Bandgap is a relevant factor for semiconductor-based circuits because a high bandgap offers advantages in operation at high temperatures, voltages, and frequencies. The bandgap of silicon is 1.12eV, while the bandgap value of silicon carbide is 3.2eV, which is about 3 times higher than that of silicon, so silicon carbide power devices have higher performance and efficiency, higher switching frequencies, and a smaller overall footprint. SiC MOSFETs have excellent characteristics and a unipolar conduction mechanism, which leads to their reduced size and improved switching performance. In addition, when having the same current and voltage ratings, the size of SiC MOSFETs can be much smaller than their Si counterparts, and due to the smaller size, the overall parasitic capacitance is smaller, which enables SiC metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors to achieve high switching speeds and low on-resistance. Therefore, SiC-based converters have great application potential in hybrid / electric vehicles, solar inverters, and uninterruptible power supplies.
