Abstract

The invention discloses a GaN-based completely-vertical Schottky varactor based on a metal eave structure and a preparation method thereof. The varactor structurally comprises a silicon substrate layer; a substrate protection layer, a bonding layer, an ohmic metal layer, an n<+>-GaN layer, an n<->-GaN layer and a Schottky contact metal layer are sequentially arranged on the silicon substrate layerfrom bottom to top; an anode pad is arranged on the Schottky contact metal layer; and a cathode pad in contact with the bonding layer is further arranged on the bonding layer. The reverse bias characteristic is effectively improved, which is reflected by the increase of reverse breakdown voltage and the reduction of leakage current during reverse bias, so that the frequency multiplication efficiency is effectively improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor devices, in particular, the invention relates to a GaN-based complete vertical Schottky varactor based on a metal eaves structure and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Terahertz (THz) waves are electromagnetic waves with a frequency in the range of 0.3THz to 3THz. Due to the particularity of the THz source: the high frequency based on electronic methods and the low frequency based on optical methods are not easy to achieve. Until the 1920s, The advantages of terahertz waves and the research of terahertz technology have gradually attracted people's attention. Terahertz wavelength is very short, it is a good broadband information carrier, and has great application prospects in the fields of high-resolution spectroscopy, imaging systems, and communications; terahertz waves can penetrate biological tissues and will not cause harmful ionization to biological cells , so it is espe...
