The subthreshold swing of such SB-MOSFETs reaches 69 mV/dec. Emphasis is placed on the capacitance-voltage analysis of p-type SB-MOSFETs. According to the measurements of gate-to-source capacitance C_(gs) with respect to V_(gs) at various V_(ds), we find that a maximum occurs at the accumulation regime due to the most imbalanced charge distribution along the channel. At each C_(gs) peak, the difference between V_(gs) and V_(ds) is equal to the Schottky barrier height(SBH) for NiSi_2 on highly doped silicon,which indicates that the critical condition of channel pinching off is related with SBH for source/drain on channel. The SBH for NiSi_2 on highly doped silicon can affect the pinch-off voltage and the saturation current of SB-MOSFETs.展开更多

The implantation depth profiles are calculated by using the Monte Carlo simulator TRIM. The fabrication process and the I-V and C-V characteristics of the lateral Ti/4H-SiC Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) fabricated on these multiple box-like ion-implantation layers are presented in detail. Measurements of the reverse I-V characteristics demonstrate a low reverse current, which is good enough for many SiC-based devices such as SiC metal-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MESFETs), and SiC static induction transistors (SITs). The parameters of the diodes are extracted from the forward I-V and C-V characteristics. The values of ideality factor n of SBDs for samples A and B are 3.0 and 3.5 respectively, and the values of series resistance R s are 11.9 and 1.0 k respectively. The values of barrier height B of Ti/4H-SiC are 0.95 and 0.72 eV obtained by the I-V method and 1.14 and 0.93 eV obtained by the C-V method for samples A and B respectively. The activation rates for the implanted nitrogen ions of samples A and B are 2% and 4% respectively extracted from C-V testing results.展开更多
