Problems solved by technology

However, in order to form a good depletion region protection, it is required to design the distance between adjacent PN junctions as small as possible, and the small channel width will show a large forward conduction resistance under forward bias conditions, which is not good. Conducive to the forward conduction of the device

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a structure of a vertical III-group nitride power semiconductor device with a trench isolation layer and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of semiconductor devices. Background technique [0002] Compared with the first-generation semiconductors represented by silicon and the second-generation semiconductors represented by gallium arsenide, the third-generation semiconductors represented by silicon carbide and group III nitrides have a large band gap and high critical mass. Excellent characteristics such as breakdown field strength, high thermal conductivity, and high electron saturation drift rate have broad application prospects in high-frequency communication, power electronics and other fields. [0003] At present, the nitride devices that can be widely used are mainly GaN-based lateral high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs). However, the main disadvantage of the lateral device is that the r...
