ABSTRACT

The short course will deal with semiconductor transistors for power applications. A brief introduction to the integrated power MOSFETs in silicon and future monolithically-integrated GaN/AlGaN HEMTs will be given to the purpose of highlighting the most relevant figures of merits in terms of performance and reliability.
The technology CAD adopted by the Semiconductor Companies and Research Centers as a specific design tool-kit will be presented along with some relevant investigations carried out on the key physical mechanisms. Wide-bandgap semiconductor devices will be compared to silicon-based ones and their specific reliability issues will be discussed.
