A Highly Linear Temperature Sensor Operating up to 600°C in a 4H-SiC CMOS Technology

In this work, a highly linear temperature sensor based on a silicon carbide (SiC) p-n diode is presented. Under a constant current biasing, the diode has an excellent linear response to the temperature (from room temperature to 600°C). The best linearity (coefficient of determination ${R}^{{2}}$ = 99.98%) is achieved when the current density...

Time-Dependent Dielectric Breakdown of 4H-SiC MOSFETs in CMOS Technology

The 4H-silicon carbide (SiC) exhibits excellent material characteristics, particularly in high-temperature, high-power, high-frequency applications. However, the reliability of SiC-based devices operating in harsh environments is a critical concern. While time-dependent dielectric breakdown (TDDB) in conventional SiC devices has been extensively...
