Abstract
A 1.2 kV rated 4H-SiC OCTFET device with octagonal-cell topology is proposed and experimentally demonstrated for the first time. The device was first optimized using TCAD numerical simulations. Devices were then successfully fabricated in a 6-inch foundry. From the measured electrical characteristics, the OCTFET is demonstrated to have 1.4x superior high frequency figures-ofmerits (HF-FOM) [R <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">on</sub> × Q <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">gd</sub> ], and 2.1× superior HF-FOM [R <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">on</sub> × C <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">gd</sub> ] compared with the conventional linear-cell MOSFET.
