A superjunction (SJ) SiC VDMOS device with a deep trench (DT-SJ SiC) is investigated and compared with conventional SiC VDMOS (C SiC) and SJ SiC VDMOS (C-SJ SiC) devices using numerical simulations. The DT-SJ SiC VDMOS device has an SJ drift region and a deep trench (DT) extending from the gate to the drain. The SJ provides a better trade-off between the breakdown voltage (BV) and specific on-resistance (R-on,R-sp), resulting in a high figure of merit (FOM=3DBV2/R-on,R-sp). The DT leads to a lower maximum gate oxide field (E-ox,E-max) by breaking the restriction of Gauss's law on the vertical electric field at the gate oxide interface. Moreover, the gate charge (Q(g)) and the gate-drain charge (Q(gd)) are dramatically reduced. The electrical characteristics of the DT-SJ SiC are studied and compared with the other two devices with the same dimensions. Compared with the C SiC, the BV and the maximum FOM are increased by 308V and 3028MWcm(-2), respectively, while R-on,R-sp, E-ox,E-max, Q(g), and Q(gd) are decreased by 47.97%, 26.98%, 35.59%, and 58.73%, respectively. Compared with the C-SJ SiC, the BV and the maximum FOM are increased by 18V and 116MWcm(-2), respectively, while R-on,R-sp, E-ox,E-max, Q(g), and Q(gd) are decreased by 1.04%, 21.48%, 40.63%, and 61.91%, respectively.
