In this paper, the static and dynamic characterization of a High Voltage (10kV) 4H-SiC Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT) is presented. Using a high-voltage source in vacuum conditions, a breakdown voltage of 11 kV was measured. Results showed that both large and small BJTs exhibit similar on-state resistance per unit area and collector current density of 55 A.cm-2. The current gain increases with a decrease in temperature, indicating reduced charge carrier recombination at lower thermal energies. Also, BJT have been characterized in switching mode at 1 kV. The study concludes that 4H-SiC BJT demonstrates promising electrical performance for high-efficiency applications in harsh environments.
