摘 要:The effect of electrical stress on the Al2O3-based n-4H-SiC metal oxide semiconductor(MOS) capacitor with a thin SiO2 interfacial buffer layer(IBL) has been *** electrical characteristics of MOS capacitors have been measured using capacitance- voltage(C-V),current-voltage(I-V)and charge trapping behavior of the films under constant voltage stressing (CVS)to understand the reliability and the interface trapping characteristics of Al2O3/SiO2/n-4H-SiC gate *** is found that Al2O3/SiO2 stack layer has lower positive charge generation and smaller flatband voltage shift under constant voltage stressing,which exhibits an excellent interface quality and high dielectric reliability making this structure suitable for 4H-SiC power devices applications.
