Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Radiation-hardened electronics has been required for the decommissioning of the Fukushima-1 plant accident. . 4H-SiC with wide-bandgap energy is one of the candidate for base semiconductor for the radiation-hardened electronics. In this work, 4H-SiC nMOSFETs with As-doped S/D and NbNi silicide contacts were demonstrated in harsh environments of high gamma-ray radiation up to over 100 Mrad and high-temperature up to 450°C. For an integrated logic circuits, pseudo-CMOS and nMOS inverters were also demonstrated.
