Problems solved by technology

However, high-frequency detection is not sensitive to series resistance, so THz diodes have large resistance, small capacitance, and low withstand voltage
Microwave rectification is more sensitive to the above three parameters, so at the current stage, there is no Schottky diode product that is really suitable for microwave rectification on the market.

Abstract

The invention relates to a high-performance gallium nitride microwave rectification Schottky diode and a preparation method. The Schottky diode comprises a Schottky anode which comprises at least twoparallel finger-shaped structures and at least one Schottky metal connection part, the end parts at the same sides of every two adjacent finger-shaped structures are connected through the Schottky metal connecting part, and the finger-shaped structures and the Schottky metal connecting parts jointly form a Schottky junction. The Schottky anode of the diode adopts the Schottky metal connecting partto connect the independent finger-shaped structures, so that the potential between the finger-shaped structures can be balanced, and the resistance of the diode is reduced. Because a plurality of feeding points are introduced into the plurality of Schottky metal connecting parts, the introduction of the plurality of feeding points reduces the resistance of the diode, and the anode area can be reduced by adopting a plurality of finger-shaped structures under the condition that the resistance is kept unchanged, thereby reducing the junction capacitance of the diode, the series resistance and the junction capacitance of the diode are improved, and the diode is more suitable for being used in a microwave frequency band.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microelectronics, and in particular relates to a high-performance gallium nitride microwave rectification Schottky diode and a preparation method. Background technique [0002] At present, the application background of most GaN Schottky diodes is the rectification of low frequency (KHz or MHz), or the detection of millimeter wave terahertz frequency band. With the development of microwave wireless charging technology, the industry's demand for Schottky diodes dedicated to microwave band rectification is becoming more and more urgent. [0003] Schottky diodes are installed in microwave rectifiers to convert microwave energy into DC energy with low loss to power loads (such as mobile phones, medical instruments, sensors). [0004] The rectification efficiency of a microwave rectifier is positively related to the breakdown voltage of the diode, and negatively related to the junction capacitance and series r...
