摘要: MOS capacitors with thick (≈65nm) SiO 2 gate oxide were fabricated on 3C-SiC/Si substrates and characterised (CV IV) at room temperature to study the state of art 3C-SiC/SiO interface. A low interface trap density ~2.5×1011cm−2eV−1was obtained N O annealed devices using high-low method. Gate was biased elevated voltage distribution cumulative failed studied. Two failure mechanisms identified mechanism 1 dominating 6-8.5MV/cm range, becoming more obvious above S.5MV/cm. The rate a diameter 100µm 3MV/cm estimated be ~3450 PPM.
