Abstract
In the present work, we studied the influence of the post-implantation annealing temperature on the performance and oxide reliability of lateral 4H-SiC MOSFETs. The maximum field effect mobility of the MOSFETs at 25°C decreases from 22.4cm2/Vs to 17.2cm2/Vs by increasing annealing temperature from 1600°C to 1800°C. Respectively, the measured meantime to failure is about one order of magnitude higher for the 1700°C annealed sample at an applied field of 8.5MV/cm compared to the 1600°C and 1800°C annealed samples.
