Abstract
The influence of stacking fault (SF) generation on the reverse blocking characteristics has been investigated on SiC 10 kV, 5 A Merged PiN (MPS) diodes. For the first time, we have observed that the generation of SFs under forward biased stress increases the reverse leakage current. In addition, the presence of a secondary diode formed by the electrical stress was observed and attributed to the breakdown voltage failure on certain devices.
