Heavy-ion microbeams are employed for probing the radiation-sensitive regions in commercial SiC VD-MOSFETs with micrometer accuracy. By scanning the beam spot over the die, a spatial periodicity was observed in the leakage current degradation, reflecting the striped structure of the power MOSFET investigated. Two different mechanisms were observed for degradation. At low drain bias (gate and source grounded) only the gate-oxide (at JFET or neck region) is contributing in the ion-induced leakage current. For exposures at drain-source bias voltages higher than a specific threshold, additional higher drain leakage current is observed in the p-n junction region. This provides useful insights for the understanding of basic phenomena of Single Event Effects in SiC power devices.

Ion-Induced Energy Pulse Mechanism for Single-Event Burnout in High-Voltage SiC Power MOSFETs and Junction Barrier Schottky Diodes
Ball, D.R.; Galloway, K.F.; Johnson, R.A.; Alles, M.L.; Sternberg, A.L.; Sierawski, B.D.; Witulski, A.F.; Reed, R.A.; Schrimpf, R.D.; Hutson, J.M.; Javanainen, A.; Lauenstein, J-M. (IEEE, 2020)Heavy ion data suggest that a common mechanism is responsible for single-event burnout in 1200 V power MOSFETs and junction barrier Schottky diodes. Similarly, heavy ion data suggest a common mechanism is also responsible ... -
