摘要
Power electronics systems such as matrix converters require devices that are capable of blocking high voltage and conducting current in both forward and reverse directions. In this work, we present a monolithic bi-directional GaN/SiC hybrid field-effect transistor (BD-HyFET). The device combines the merits of SiC junction field-effect transistor (JFET) structure and p-GaN gated 2-dimensional-electron-gas (2DEG) channel, enabling the inclusion of a high mobility channel and area-efficient vertical voltage blocking structure. The fabricated devices exhibit bi-directional behavior at both OFF-state and ON-state, with almost symmetrical characteristics in the 1(st) and 3(rd) I-V quadrants. Non-destructive off-state breakdown characteristics with breakdown voltages over 600 V were obtained in both forward and reverse directions. The four-quadrant switching characteristics of the GaN/SiC BD-HyFET were verified. In addition, the characteristics of the BD-HyFET as an AC power chopper were successfully demonstrated.
