Silicon carbide self-aligned epitaxial MOSFET for high powered device applications

摘要

A self-aligned, silicon carbide power metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor includes a trench formed in a first layer, with a base region and then a source region epitaxially regrown within the trench. A window is formed through the source region and into the base region within a middle area of the trench. A source contact is formed within the window in contact with a base and source regions. The gate oxide layer is formed on the source and base regions at a peripheral area of the trench and on a surface of the first layer. A gate electrode is formed on the gate oxide layer above the base region at the peripheral area of the trench, and a drain electrode is formed over a second surface of the first layer.
