In this research, the Y2O3 layer is doped with the zirconium through co-sputtering and rapid thermal annealing (RTA) at 550°C, 700°C, and 850°C. Then the Al electrode is deposited to generate two kinds of structures, Al/ZrN/ Y2O3/ Y2O3+Zr/p-Si and Al/ZrN/ Y2O3+Zr/ Y2O3/p-Si. According to the XRD results, when Zr was doped on the upper layer, the crystallization phenomenon was more significant than Zr was at the bottom layer, meaning that Zr may influence the diffusion of the oxygen. The AFM also shows that the surface roughness of Zr has worse performance. For the electrical property, the influence to overall leakage current is increased because the equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) is thinner.

We report on a novel method of stacking multiple oxide layers on 4H-SiC 20 kV IGBT. Instead of SiO2/SiC interface which is common for any SiC based MOS device, we found that the AlN/SiC interface would yield better results. We have performed 2D numerical simulations to analyze static characteristics for three combinations of dielectric stacks on IGBT: HfO2-SiO2, HfO2-AlN, and HfO2-SiO2-AlN (by maintaining the same equivalent oxide thickness value). In addition to higher transconductance (gm) and lower subthreshold swing (SS), the device with AlN/SiC interface offer comparatively lower RSP,ON and higher mobility with respect to temperature. Nevertheless, with a partial compromise on device characteristics improvement, insertion of SiO2 in the dielectric stack helps in suppressing the subthreshold current owing to higher band offset with respect to SiC. The turn off characteristics of the device is analysed using a clamped inductive circuit. Device with AlN/SiC has shown better dIc/dt and fall time compared to SiO2/SiC interface.
