Abstract

The influence of temperature on the total ionizing dose response of silicon carbide (SiC) metal-oxide-semiconductor filed effect transistors (MOSFETs) was experimentally studied by γ-rays irradiation at temperatures ranging from −233 °C to 175 °C. Electrical parameters were investigated with Current-Voltage (I-V) measurements. Results showed that the threshold voltage shifted toward negative post-irradiation due to the radiation-induced oxide trapped charges. The shift of threshold voltage was a function of irradiation temperature. The shift of threshold voltage increased as temperature decreased. The reason was that there were less annealing for the radiation-induced oxide trapped charges at low temperatures.
