Abstract

Long-term degradation of MOS devices has to be avoided in different harsh irradiated environments, especially for aerospace or military applications. In this paper, an overview of the irradiation experiments recently performed on 4H-SiC MOSFETs having an oxynitrided gate oxide is given, with a special focus on the threshold voltage and the effective channel mobility drifts. The general mechanisms taking place during irradiation and post-annealing treatments are described. Finally, new open issues recently observed by performing the temperature measurement on irradiated MOSFETs are introduced and discussed.
