A high-performance temperature sensor based on 4H-SiC pn diode is demonstrated. The sensor is capable of stable operation in a temperature range from 20 degrees C to 600 degrees C. The forward voltage of the pn diode has a linear dependence on temperature variation at a constant current, and recombination current dominates the current flowing in the 4H-SiC pn diode in the measured current range. At a forward current density of 0.44 mA/cm(2), the device achieves a sensitivity of 3.5mV/degrees C. This type of temperature sensor can be integrated with SiC power management and control circuitry to create a sensing module that is capable of working at extremely high temperatures.
