초록

Silicon Carbide (SiC) power device possesses attractive features, such as high breakdown voltage, high-speed switching capability, and high temperature operation. In general, device design has a significant effect on the switching characteristics. In this paper, we report the effect of the P-base doping concentration ($N_{PBASE}$) on the transient characteristics of 4H-SiC DMOSFETs. By reducing $N_{PBASE}$, switching time also decreases, primarily due to the lowered channel resistance. It is found that improvement of switching speed in 4H-SiC DMOSFETs is essential to reduce the and channel resistance. Therefore, accurate modeling of the operating conditions are essential for the optimization of superior switching performance.
