The device comprises a Fe-doped gallium oxide substrate; the first N + gallium oxide layer and the second N + gallium oxide layer are respectively arranged on the upper surface and the lower surface of the substrate; the anode metal electrode is arranged in the center of the upper surface of the first N + gallium oxide layer; the cathode metal electrode is arranged in the center of the lower surface of the second N + gallium oxide layer; the dielectric passivation layer covers the upper surface and the lower surface of the whole device, and an electrode region is exposed; wherein a plurality of grooves are formed in the first N + gallium oxide layer; a plurality of grooves are located in the peripheral area of the edge of the anode metal electrode and penetrate through the whole first N + gallium oxide layer; the grooves are filled with Mg-doped semi-insulating gallium oxide materials so as to form Mg-doped light modulation field limiting rings. According to the structural design, the peak field intensity of the edge of the electrode and the current density of the edge of the electrode are reduced, and the withstand voltage threshold and the reliability of the device are improved while the low on-resistance is ensured.
