Background Doping

ABSTRACTHomoepitaxial growth, impurity doping, and diode fabrication on 4H-SiC(11–20) and (03–38) have been investigated. Although the efficiency of nitrogen incorporation is higher on the non-standard faces than on (0001), a low background doping concentration of 2∼3×1014 cm-3 can be achieved. On these faces, boron and aluminum are less effectively incorporated, compared to the growth on off-axis (0001). 4H-SiC(11–20) epilayers are micropipe-free, as expected. More interestingly, almost perfect micropipe closing has been realized in 4H-SiC (03–38) epitaxial growth. Ni/4H-SiC(11–20) and (03–38) Schottky barrier diodes showed promising characteritics of 3.36 kV-24 mΩcm2 and 3.28 kV–22 mΩcm2, respectively. The breakdown voltage of 4H-SiC(03–38) Schottky barrier diodes was significantly improved from 1 kV to above 2.5 kV by micropipe closing.

Gallium nitride (GaN) vertical Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) with a SiNx field plate (FP) structure on low-dislocation-density GaN substrates have been designed and fabricated. We have successfully achieved the SBD breakdown voltage (Vb) of 680V with the FP structure, in contrast to that of 400V without the FP structure. There was no difference in the forward current-voltage characteristics with a specific on-resistance (Ron) of 1.1mcm2. The figure of merit V2b/Ron of the SBD with the FP structure was 420MWcm-2. The FP structure and the high quality drift layers grown on the GaN substrates with low dislocation densities have greatly contributed to the obtained results.

ABSTRACTP-type 6H SiC Schottky barrier diodes with good rectifying characteristics upto breakdown voltage as high as 1000V have been successfully fabricated using metal-overlap over a thick oxide layer (∼ 6000 Å) as edge termination and Al as the barrier metal. The influence of the oxide layer edge termination in improving the reverse breakdown voltage as well as the forward current – voltage characteristics is presented. The terminated Schottky diodes indicate a factor of two higher breakdown voltage and 2–3 times larger forward current densities than those without edge termination. The specific series resistance of the unterminated diodes was ∼228 mΩ-cm2, while that of the terminated diodes was ∼84 mΩ-cm2.
