Embodiment 1

[0069] like image 3 As shown, a silicon carbide trench Schottky diode device includes from bottom to top: cathode electrode 1, substrate layer 2, N-type SiC epitaxial layer 3, trench 4, dielectric layer 5, conductive layer 6 and anode electrode 7 , a plurality of trenches 4 are located on the top of the N-type SiC epitaxial layer 3, the dielectric layer 5 and the conductive layer 6 are filled in the trenches 4 in sequence, and a P-type region 8 is also included, and the P-type region 8 is embedded in part of the trenches 4 between the N-type SiC epitaxial layer 3 and the junction of the anode electrode 7, the P-type region 8 is located in the N-type SiC epitaxial layer 3, and the upper boundary 81 of the P-type region 8 is connected to the anode electrode 7, and the P-type region 8 The side boundary 83 borders on the side wall 43 of the trench 4 , and the side boundary 83 is a boundary parallel to the side wall 43 of the trench 4 .

Embodiment 2

[0077] like Figure 4 As shown, the upper boundary 81 of the P-type region 8 protrudes above the trench 4 and is connected to the anode electrode 7 , and the lower boundary 82 is located on or above the top 41 of the trench 4 . This structure allows the P-type region 8 to be directly formed by epitaxial growth, avoiding material damage caused by ion implantation and activation processes, and also simplifies the process.

[0078] In another embodiment of the present invention, the dielectric layer 5 extends upward from the lower boundary 82 of the P-type region 8 to the side boundary of the P-type region, may extend to the upper boundary 81 of the P-type region 8, and may not extend to the P-type region. The upper boundary 81 of the area 8 is set according to actual needs. In this way, the connection between the anode electrode 7 and the N-type SiC epitaxial layer 3 can be avoided, and the short circuit between the P-type region 8 and the N-type SiC epitaxial layer 3 can preve...

Embodiment 3

[0087] like Figure 5 As shown, the difference from the first embodiment is that the side boundary 83 of the P-type region 8 does not border on the sidewall 43 of the trench 4 . And its preparation method is the same.
