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.

4H-SiC floating junction Schottky barrier diodes (Super-SBDs) were fabricated. It was found that their properties are closest to the theoretical limitation, defined by the relationship between specific on-state resistance and breakdown voltage of 4H SiC-unipolar devices. They have a p-type floating layer designed as line-and-spacing. The specific on-state resistances of Super-SBDs with a few micrometers of spacing width were found to be nearly equal to those of conventional SBDs without p-type floating layer. The breakdown voltages of Super-SBDs were higher than those of conventional SBDs. Accordingly the properties of Super-SBDs have improved the trade-off between specific on-state resistance and breakdown voltage, and the highest value to date for Baliga’s Figure of Merit (BFOM) has been obtained.
