This chapter reviews the status of SiC Schottky barrier diode development. The fundamentals of Schottky barrier diodes are first provided, followed by the review of high-voltage SiC Schottky barrier diodes, junction-barrier Schottky diodes and merged-pin-Schottky diodes. The development history is reviewed and the key performance parameters are discussed. Applications of SiC SBDs in power electronics circuits as well as other areas such as gas sensors, microwave and UV detections are also presented, followed by discussion of remaining challenges.

After the successful introduction of silicon carbide Schottky-Barrier diodes in 2001, next commercial devices will be switching components. The development focus is targeted to MOSFETs and VJFETs. Regarding VJFETs, a promising device was presented several years ago and tested successfully in several applications. Since the unconventional device structure does not allow the use of classical JFET models, a new electro-thermal model was developed, taking into account the features of the design as well as the targeted enlarged range of operating temperatures.

SiC diode (Silicon Carbide Diode) is a newly commercial available Schottky barrier diode with zero reverse-recovery-time, which is a perfect candidate for fabricating high voltage pulse protection circuit in ultrasonic transceiver system. With SiC diode’s high performance, the circuit can deliver 400 volts or higher voltage protection level, which is not an easy job for other kind of diodes. In this article, the theory of diode-bridge protection circuit is briefly discussed, and a SiC diode-bridge protection circuit was fabricated, and some experiments has been done to verify the feasibility of using SiC diodes in diode-bridge protection circuit.
