Problems solved by technology

At present, in order to increase the conduction current of the device, the way of multi-cell parallel connection is usually adopted. Different cell shapes and layouts will affect the breakdown voltage and on-resistance, but the common square array, because the diagonal P+ area spacing is greater than The distance between adjacent P+ regions cannot effectively reduce the Schottky surface electric field in the middle region, which affects the pinch-off ability of the Schottky junction during reverse bias; and the strip structure is difficult to achieve ideal uniformity in terms of processing technology , so it is worth studying to provide a SiC JBS device that is easy to implement and has high precision in the process

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor devices and their manufacture, in particular to a layout method for SiC JBS devices. Background technique [0002] High-power diodes are an important branch of semiconductor power electronic devices, mainly including Schottky Barrier Diodes (Schottky Barrier Diode, SBD), Junction Barrier Schottky Diodes (JBS), and PiN diodes. In the field of silicon carbide (SiC) with high voltage and high current, SiC SBD diodes are widely used due to their low forward voltage drop, but the existence of Schottky barriers makes the reverse leakage current of SBD diodes relatively large, limiting for its high-voltage applications. Although the SiC PiN diode has a high blocking voltage, due to the conductance modulation effect, the energy loss of the SiC PiN diode is relatively large during reverse recovery. [0003] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, the junction barrier Schottky diode structure is usua...
