Abstract :
This paper presents, a physically based inversion layer electron mobility model which takes into account the combined effects of surface roughness and coulomb scattering the two main mechanisms limiting the electron mobility in SiC MOSFETs. The MOSFET was fabricated on an aluminium-implanted surface and the transfer characteristics are analysed, then the corresponding transconductance curves are compared.
