  • Abstract
    F-N injection in NO nitrided gate oxides, grown on n-type 4H-SiC, has been investigated at room temperature and 300°C. The results show that NO nitridation has a positive effect on the Fowler-Nordheim electron injection at high electric fields. The electron injection barrier height is very close to the theoretical value at room temperature. The temperature dependence of the electron injection barrier height is reduced by nitridation
