Embodiment 1

[0060] Next, more specific examples of the present invention will be described.

[0061] In this example, β-Ga 2 o 3 substrate as n + semiconductor layer 32 . In the β-Ga 2 o 3 substrate, doped with Si as a dopant, and formed with an electron carrier concentration of 1×10 19 cm -3 . In addition, the plane direction of the substrate was formed to be (010). Although the plane direction of the substrate is not particularly limited, it is preferably a plane rotated by an angle of 50° to 90° from the (100) plane. For example, there are (010) plane, (001) plane, (−201) plane, (101) plane, and (310) plane. In this way, re-evaporation from the substrate during epitaxial growth can be suppressed, and the growth rate can be increased. In addition, it may be a surface obtained by rotating the direction of the substrate surface by an angle of 37.5° or less from the (010) plane. In this case, it is possible to make n + Semiconductor layer 32 and n - The interface of the semico...

Abstract

The invention provides a Schottky barrier diode capable of suppressing an increase in a forward voltage and an increase in a contact resistance with an ohmic electrode layer even when a reverse breakdown voltage is increased. A Schottky barrier diode (1) includes an n-type semiconductor layer (3) formed of a GaO-based compound semiconductor having n-type conductivity, and a Schottky electrode layer (2) coming into Schottky contact with the n-type semiconductor layer (3). The n-type semiconductor layer (3) has an n-semiconductor layer (31) which comes into Schottky contact with the Schottky electrode layer (2) and has comparatively low electron carrier concentration, and an n-semiconductor layer (32) having electron carrier concentration higher than that of the n-semiconductor layer (31) formed therein.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application, the application number of the original application is 201280054764.8, the international application number is PCT / JP2012 / 078983, the application date is November 08, 2012, and the invention name is "Schottky barrier diode". technical field [0002] The present invention relates to a Schottky barrier diode formed by contacting metal and semiconductor Schottky. Background technique [0003] Conventionally, a Schottky barrier diode using SiC is known as a high withstand voltage diode used, for example, in an inverter circuit (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). Schottky barrier diodes generally have a lower forward voltage (VF) and a shorter reverse recovery time (trr) than PN junction diodes with the same current capacity, and have excellent switching characteristics. However, people are eagerly pursuing higher withstand voltage and higher efficiency, and therefore seek further higher withstand voltage and lower forwar...
