[0048] Such as Figure 4 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the polysilicon strips 7 are intermittently distributed in the lateral direction, and this structure will further improve the radiation resistance of the terminal. A plurality of discontinuous polysilicon strips will modulate the terminal electric field in a non-radiative state and improve the withstand voltage of the device.

[0049] As a preferred manner, the distances between the discontinuous portions of the polysilicon strip 7 in the lateral direction and the upper surface of the drift region 2 of the semiconductor of the first conductivity type are different.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of power semiconductor devices, and in particular relates to a terminal structure of a radiation-resistant semiconductor device. Background technique [0002] The ideal device breakdown voltage refers to the case where the PN junction is a planar junction. Due to the influence of the junction termination effect, the device breakdown voltage is restricted by the breakdown voltage of the terminal region. Radiation effects not only degrade the electrical properties of the active region, but also affect the termination region of the device. The traditional anti-radiation reinforcement method only strengthens the active area, and cannot slow down the degradation of electrical characteristics caused by the radiation effect in the terminal area. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the above problems and propose a radiation-resistant power device terminal structure ...
