Abstract

The invention discloses a Schottky diode with a junction termination extension structure and a preparation method of the Schottky diode, and the Schottky diode is characterized in that the diode comprises a cathode, an n +-Ga2O3 substrate layer, an n-Ga2O3 buffer layer, a P-type region and an anode; wherein the cathode, the n +-Ga2O3 substrate layer and the n-Ga2O3 buffer layer are sequentially arranged from bottom to top; the left end and the right end of the n-Ga2O3 buffer layer are respectively provided with a group of groove structures, and the P-type region covers the groove structures and the surface of the n-Ga2O3 buffer layer above the groove structures so as to form a junction termination extension structure; the anode covers the upper surface of the middle of the n-Ga2O3 buffer layer and extends towards the two ends to cover part of the upper surface of the P-type region. Wherein the P-type region is made of a gallium nitride material. According to the invention, a junction termination extension structure is adopted, a P-type groove with gradually increased depth is introduced, and an electric field at the edge of a Schottky junction is dispersed by using a generated transverse PN junction, so that the device has a smoother equipotential profile, a peak electric field is reduced, and meanwhile, the problem that the preparation of P-type Ga2O3 is difficult is avoided by taking P-type GaN as a P-type region.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microelectronics, and in particular relates to a Schottky diode with a junction terminal extension structure and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Ga 2 O 3 Large forbidden band width (E g = 4.9eV) brings a theoretically high critical breakdown field strength (E br =8MV / cm), combined with electron mobility (μ=300cm 2 / (V s)), which makes it have a high quality factor in the field of power switch applications. As the current research hotspot, vertical Ga 2 O 3 The Schottky diode (SBD) device has a simple structure, and can increase the breakdown voltage of the device by increasing the thickness of the drift layer and reducing the doping concentration of the drift layer, without affecting the lateral size of the device, which is beneficial to improve wafer utilization. At the same time, the SBD is a unipolar device with short reverse recovery time and excellent frequency char...
