Abstract

The invention discloses a Schottky diode and a manufacturing method of the Schottky diode. The Schottky diode sequentially comprises a substrate, a gallium nitride buffer layer, an n-type heavy doping gallium nitride layer, an n-type light doping gallium nitride layer, a p-type heavy doping gallium nitride layer and an electrode structure. The p-type heavy doping gallium nitride layer is located on a part of the zone on the n-type light doping gallium nitride layer so that a specific pattern can be formed; parts of zones of the substrate and the gallium nitride buffer layer are perforated so that a part of the n-type heavy doping gallium nitride layer can be exposed; the electrode structure comprises a Schottky electrode located on the n-type light doping gallium nitride layer, a first ohmic electrode located on the p-type heavy doping gallium nitride layer and second ohmic electrodes located in holes and making contact with the n-type heavy doping gallium nitride layer. According to the method, a larger current can pass through the Schottky diode on the condition that a low-starting voltage is kept and reverse electric leakage is reduced; ultra-high temperature annealing is not needed in the technology so that damage to a gallium nitride material can be avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of microelectronics, in particular to a gallium nitride Schottky diode and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] In the field of high-power semiconductor devices, power devices based on the third-generation semiconductor material gallium nitride have undergone large-scale development in recent years and are gradually being widely used. GaN-based devices are gradually replacing silicon-based devices in some fields that require high device performance, such as radar and communication base stations. Compared with silicon materials, gallium nitride materials have the advantages of large band gap, high breakdown electric field strength, high electron saturation drift velocity, strong chemical stability and small thermal expansion coefficient. high pressure, high temperature resistance and high energy efficiency. [0003] Schottky diode is a low-power, ultra-high-speed semiconductor devic...
