摘要
We have developed plasma-deposited semi-insulating silicon nitride (SinSiN) as a resistive sea passivation. In this paper we briefly review its properties, then we review how it can be used as a resistive sea. Finally, we show that SinSiN can be used to improve the breakdown voltage of a high-voltage device by some 20 to 40 V by screening all surface charges. We further show that SinSiN provides device immunity to surface charges, thereby improving yield and reliability. © 1990 IEEE
