The invention discloses a Schottky barrier diode rectifying device and a manufacture method thereof. According to the device, an active region is formed by parallel connection of a plurality of Schottky barrier diode unit cells; each unit cell comprises a first conductive light dope monocrystalline silicon epitaxial layer which is connected with an upper part of a silicon chip and an upper metal layer, grooves which are at an upper part of the epitaxial layer and whose openings are at upper surface of the epitaxial layer, and a boss which is formed between adjacent grooves in an epitaxial layer area; a lower metal layer and a substrate form ohmic contact; the upper metal layer is connected with upper surfaces of a first conductive polysilicon zone and a second conductive polysilicon zone to form ohmic contact; the upper metal layer is connected with an upper surface of the boss to form Schottky barrier contact; lower bottom depth of the first conductive polysilicon zone is larger than lower bottom depth of the second conductive polysilicon zone; and thickness of a first isolation oxidation layer is larger than thickness of the second isolation oxidation layer. According to the device and the method of the invention, reverse voltage blockout capability of the device is enhanced substantially, slit filling capability is improved, thus much flexibility is provided for device structure design, and device reliability is reinforced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a rectifying device and a manufacturing method thereof, in particular to a Schottky barrier diode rectifying device and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] As a conversion device from AC to DC, the rectifier device requires unidirectional conduction characteristics, that is, low turn-on voltage and small on-resistance during forward conduction, and high blocking voltage and low reverse leakage when reverse biased. Schottky barrier diodes have been used in power supply applications for decades as rectifying devices. Compared with PN junction diodes, Schottky barrier diodes have the advantages of low forward turn-on voltage and fast switching speed, which makes them very suitable for switching power supplies and high-frequency applications. [0003] Schottky barrier diodes are manufactured using the principle of a metal-semiconductor junction formed by contact between a metal and a semiconductor. The t...
