Problems solved by technology

However, the electric field intensity distribution at the Schottky contact edge of the device can only be optimized on a two-dimensional structure simply by adding a bevel structure, and the breakdown voltage still cannot meet the requirements of high-voltage operation, thus limiting the Ga 2 o 3 Application of Schottky Diodes in High Voltage and High Power Devices

Abstract

The invention discloses a Schottky diode based on a p-type NiO thin film and an inclined plane terminal structure, and mainly solves the problem that an existing Schottky diode device is too low in breakdown voltage and cannot be widely applied to a high-voltage and high-power device. The Schottky diode comprises an ohmic contact metal Au layer, an ohmic contact metal Ti layer, a highly-doped n-type Ga2O3 substrate, a lowly-doped n-type Ga2O3 thin film and a p-type NiO thin film from bottom to top, wherein inclined plane terminal structures are engraved on the two sides of the lowly-doped n-type Ga2O3 thin film, inclined plane terminal structures are engraved on the two sides of the p-type NiO thin film, and a groove with depth reaching lowly-doped n-type Ga2O3 thin film is formed in the middle of p-type NiO thin film, and a Schottky electrode Ni layer and a Schottky electrode Au layer are arranged on the groove and the p-type NiO thin film. According to the Schottky diode, the problemof excessive concentrated distribution of an electric field at the edge of a Schottky junction along with the increase of the voltage during reverse turn-off is avoided, the breakdown voltage is improved, and the Schottky diode can be used as a power device and a high-voltage switching device.
