Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of power semiconductor devices, and particularly relates to a diode and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Energy resources are an important material basis for human survival and development, and a source of power for human production and life. Many energy resources are inexhaustible and inexhaustible, such as wind energy, solar energy, and tidal energy. However, the main energy used in production and life is non-renewable energy, including fossil energy, coal, natural gas, etc., which has triggered a global energy crisis. Since mankind entered the 21st century, this issue has attracted more and more attention. How to reduce unnecessary energy loss in production and life, that is, how to improve the utilization rate of energy resources, is an important means to alleviate the global energy crisis. As one of the energy sources that can be directly used by human beings, electric energy ...
