Abstract
In this paper the interface trap densities (Dit) of 6H- and 4H-SiC MOSFETs in the subthreshold region have been studied. Interface trap densities in this region were extracted as a function of trap energy (ET) from the transfer characteristics. We show these interface trap densities increase exponentially approaching the onset of strong inversion for both polytypes, and Dit(ET ) is higher in 4H than in 6H through the subthreshold region. These results are consistent with previous reports
