Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of power semiconductor devices, and in particular relates to a heterogeneous structure field effect diode and a manufacturing method. Background technique [0002] As an indispensable part of voltage regulators, rectifiers, and inverters, power Schottky diodes are used more and more in daily life, mainly involving high-voltage power supply, power management, factory automation, and motor vehicle energy distribution. management and many other fields. At the same time, as power Schottky diodes are more and more widely used in the field of power electronics, higher and higher requirements are placed on their performance. [0003] Current power Schottky diodes mainly use Si-based materials. However, due to the limitations of material characteristics such as the bandgap width and electron mobility of Si materials, the performance of silicon-based power devices is close to its theoretical limit, which cannot meet today's ...
