We report on electrical and physical investigations aimed to clarify the mechanisms behind the high channel mobility of 4H-SiC metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors processed with POCl3 annealing. By low-temperature capacitance–voltage analysis, we found that the shallow interface traps are effectively removed by P incorporation. Using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, we found that the three-fold coordinated P atoms exist at the oxide/4H-SiC interface. The overall results suggest that P atoms directly remove the Si–Si bonds and thus eliminate the near-interface traps.

The channel mobility and oxide reliability of metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) on 4H-SiC (0001) carbon face were investigated. The gate oxide was fabricated by using dry-oxidized film followed by pyrogenic reoxidation annealing (ROA). Significant improvements in the oxide reliability were observed by time-dependent dielectric breakdown (TDDB) measurement. Furthermore, the field-effect inversion channel mobility (μFE) of MOSFETs fabricated by using pyrogenic ROA was as high as that of conventional 4H-SiC (0001) MOSFETs having the pyrogenic-oxidized gate oxide. It is suggested that the pyrogenic ROA of dry oxide as a method of gate oxide fabrication satisfies both channel mobility and oxide reliability on 4H-SiC (0001) carbon-face MOSFETs.
