摘要：
This paper presents a novel Schottky rectifier structure based on the superjunction approach, which is utilizes 2- and 3-D field shaping to increase the avalanche breakdown voltage. Device forward and blocking characteristics are analyzed with numerical simulations and compared with conventional 4H-SiC Schottky rectifiers. Optimal design tradeoffs between breakdown voltage and specific on resistance are obtained for high voltage 4H-SiC supejunction Schottky rectifiers. The results show that the new structure can provide a 20 x lower R-on,R-sp than conventional Schottky rectifier for 6kV device. In addition, device termination and possible fabrication steps for the superjunction devices are also presented.
