Abstract
An epi-base, implanted-emitter monolithic 4H-SiC Darlington transistor which shows a peak common emitter current gain of ∼ 450 is reported. The forward drop at 50A/cm2 is around 7V. The inter-stage isolation is achieved with trenches filled with oxide. Isolation trench deeper than the base-collector junction is needed to effectively isolate the two BJT stages.
