High-energy bandgap material silicon carbide (SiC) is gaining attention as a next-generation power semiconductor material, and in particular, SiC-based MOSFETs are developed as representative power semiconductors to increase the breakdown voltage (BV) of conventional planar structures. However, as the size of SJ (Super Junction) MOSFET devices decreases and the depth of pillars increases, it becomes challenging to uniformly form the doping concentration of pillars. Therefore, a structure with different doping concentrations segmented within the pillar is being researched. Using Silvaco TCAD simulation, a SJ VVD (vertical variation doping profile) MOSFET with three different doping concentrations in the pillar was studied. Simulations were conducted for the width of the pillar and the doping concentration of N-epi, revealing that as the width of the pillar increases, the depletion region widens, leading to an increase in on-specific resistance (Ron,sp) and breakdown voltage (BV). Additionally, as the doping concentration of N-epi increases, the number of carriers increases, and the depletion region narrows, resulting in a decrease in Ron,sp and BV. The optimized SJ VVD MOSFET exhibits a very high figure of merit (BFOM) of 13,400 KW/cm2, indicating excellent performance characteristics and suggesting its potential as a next-generation highperformance power device suitable for practical applications.

Geon Hee Lee, Byoung Sup Ahn, Ey Goo Kang
J Electr Electron Mater 2020;33(3):173-176.   Published online May 1, 2020
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4313/JKEM.2021.33.3.3
This study focuses on a pillar in which is implanted a P-type maneuver under a P base. This structure is called a super junction structure. By inserting the pillar, the electric field concentrated on the P base is shared by the pillar, so the columns can be dispersed while maintaining a high breakdown voltage. Ten pillars were generated during the multi epitaxial process. The interval between pillars is varied to optimize the electric field to be concentrated on the pillar at a threshold voltage of 6 V, a yield voltage of 4,500 V, and an on-state voltage drop of 3.8 V. The density of the filler gradually decreased when the interval was extended by implanting a filler with the same density. The results confirmed that the size of the depletion layer between the filler and the N-epitaxy layer was reduced, and the current flowing along the N-epitaxy layer was increased. As the interval between the fillers decreased, the cost of the epitaxial process also decreased. However, it is possible to confirm the trade-off relationship that deteriorated the electrical characteristics and efficiency.

Ey Goo Kang
J Electr Electron Mater 2017;30(4):210-213.   Published online April 1, 2017
In this paper, we analyzed the structural design and electrical characteristics of a 3.3 kV super junction FS IGBT as a next generation power device. The device parameters were extracted by design and process simulation. To obtain optimal breakdown voltage, we researched the breakdown characteristics. Initially, we confirmed that the breakdown voltage decreased as trench depth increased. We analyzed the breakdown voltage according to p pillar dose. As a result of the experiment, we confirmed that the breakdown voltage increased as p pillar dose increased. To obtain more than 3.3 kV, the p pillar dose was 5×1013 cm-2, and the epi layer resistance was 140 Ω. We extracted design and process parameters considering the on state voltage drop.

This paper was proposed the theoretical research and optimal design 3000V super junction NPT IGBT for using electrical automotive and power conversion. Because super junction IGBT was showed ultra low on resistance, it was structure that can improve the thermal characteristics of conventional NPT IGBT. The electrical characteristics of super junction NPT IGBT were 2.52 V of on state voltage drop, 4.33 V of threshold voltage and 2,846 V breakdown voltage. We did not obtaing 3,000 V breakdown voltage but we will obtain 3,000 V breakdown voltage through improving p pillar layer. If we are carried this research, This device will be used electrical automotive, power conversiton and high speed train.
