We propose a high-temperature-operation (HTOT) SOI MOSFET and show preliminary simulation results of its characteristics. It is demonstrated that HTOT SOI MOSFET operates safely at 700 K with no thermal instability because of its expanded effective bandgap. It is shown that its threshold voltage is higher than that of the conventional SOI MOSFET because its local thin Si regions offer an expanded effective band gap. It is shown that HTOT SOI MOSFET with 1-nm-thick local-thin Si regions is almost insensitive to temperature for (427 C). This confirms that HTOT SOI MOSFET is a promising device for future high-temperature applications.

We report a 1700V, 5.5mΩ-cm24H-SiC DMOSFET capable of 225°C operation. The specific on-resistance of the DMOSFET designed for 1200V applications is 8.8mΩ-cm2at 225°C, an increase of only 60% compared to the room temperature value. The low specific on-resistance at high temperatures enables a smaller die size for high temperature operation. Under a negative gate bias temperature stress (BTS) at VGS=-15 V at 225°C for 20 minutes, the devices show a threshold voltage shift of ΔVTH=-0.25 V demonstrating one of the key device reliability requirements for high temperature operation.

In this paper, a comparative analysis of nanoscaled triple metal gate (TMG) recessed-source/drain (Re-S/D) fully depleted silicon-on-insulator (FD SOI) MOSFET has been presented for the design of the pseudo-NMOS inverter in the nanometer regime. For this, firstly, an analytical modeling of threshold voltage has been proposed in order to investigate the short channel immunity of the studied device and also verified against simulation results. In this structure, the novel concept of backchannel inversion has been utilized for the study of device performance. The threshold voltage has been analyzed by varying the parameters of the device like the ratio of metal gate length and the recessed-source/drain thickness for TMG Re-S/D SOI MOSFET. Drain-induced barrier lowering (DIBL) has also been explored in terms of recessed-source/drain thickness and the metal gate length ratio to examine short channel effects (SCEs). For the exact estimation of results, the comparison of the existing multimetal gate structures with TMG Re-S/D SOI MOSFET has also been taken under study in terms of electrostatic performance, i.e., threshold voltage, subthreshold slope, and on-off current ratio. These structures are investigated with the TCAD numerical simulator from Silvaco ATLAS. Furthermore, for the first time, TMG Re-S/D FD SOI MOSFET-based pseudo-NMOS inverter has been designed to observe the device performance at circuit levels. It has been found that the device offers high noise immunity with optimum switching characteristics, and the propagation delay of the studied circuit is recorded as 0.43 ps.

Prototype 800 V, 47 A enhancement-mode SiC VJFETs have been developed for high temperature operation (250 °C). With an active area of 23 mm2 and target threshold voltage of +1.25 V, these devices exhibited a 28 m room temperature on-resistance and excellent blocking characteristics at elevated temperature. With improved device packaging, on-resistance and saturation current values of 15 m and 100 A, respectively, are achievable.

Temperature-dependent threshold voltage (Vth) stability is a significant issue in the practical application of semi-conductor power devices, especially when they are undergoing a repeated high-temperature operation condition. The Vth analytical model and its stability are dependent on high-temperature operations in wide-bandgap gallium nitride (GaN)-based high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) devices that were investigated in this work. The temperature effects on the physical parameters—such as barrier height, conduction band, and polarization charge—were analysed to understand the mechanism of Vth stability. The Vth analytical model under high-temperature operation was then proposed and developed to study the measurement temperatures and repeated rounds dependent on Vth stability. The validity of the model was verified by comparing the theoretical calculation data with the experimental measurement and technology computer-aided design (TCAD) simulation results. This work provides an effective theoretical reference on the Vth stability of power devices in practical, high-temperature applications.

Introduction: A new analytical model is designed for Workfunction Modulated Rectangular Recessed Channel-Silicon On Insulator (WMRRC-SOI) MOSFET that considers the concept of groove gate and implements an idea of workfunction engineering. Methods: The impact of Negative Junction Depth (NJD) and oxide thickness (tox) are analyzed on device performances such as Sub-threshold Slope (SS), Drain Induced Barrier Lowering (DIBL) and threshold voltage. Results: The results of the proposed work are evaluated with the Rectangular Recessed Channel-Silicon On Insulator (RRC-SOI) MOSFET keeping the metal workfunction constant throughout the gate region. Furthermore, an analytical model is developed using 2D Poisson’s equation and threshold voltage is estimated in terms of minimum surface potential. Conclusion: In this work, the impact of Negative Junction Depth (NJD) on minimum surface potential and the drain current are also evaluated. It is observed from the analysis that the analog switching performance of WMRRC-SOI MOSFET surpasses RRC-SOI MOSFET in terms of better driving capability, high Ion/Ioff ratio, minimized Short Channel Effects (SCEs) and hot carrier immunity. Results are simulated using 2D Sentaurus TCAD simulator for validation of the proposed structure.
