Patent ID: 11908933

Abstract:
A metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) device is described herein. The MOSFET device comprises a unit cell on a silicon carbide (SiC) substrate. The unit cell comprises: a source region; a well region; and a source attachment region. The source attachment region is in contact with the source region. The source attachment region is doped using first conductivity type ions. In an embodiment, the source attachment region is doped using second conductivity type ions. The source attachment region comprises a depth shallower than a depth of source region. In an embodiment, the source attachment region comprises a depth equal to a depth of the source region. The source attachment region comprises a doping concentration lower than a doping concentration of the source region. In an embodiment, the source attachment region comprises a doping concentration equal to a doping concentration of the source region.
