Description
Technical Field
The application belongs to the technical field of microelectronics, and particularly relates to a gallium nitride junction barrier Schottky diode and a manufacturing method thereof, which can be used for manufacturing various high-power electronic devices.
Background
Gallium nitride power devices are attracting rapid development in the application field of power devices due to the characteristics of high breakdown, high mobility, high frequency, high efficiency and the like. Compared with the traditional material, the Schottky diode prepared from the gallium nitride material has high reliability and stability, so that the device performance of the Schottky diode can be better exerted under severe working conditions such as high power, high temperature and the like. The forward and reverse working principle of the traditional vertical gallium nitride Schottky diode is that the change of barrier height is generated when metal and semiconductor are contacted, but the reverse voltage-withstanding characteristic is not outstanding, so that the actual breakdown voltage has a certain deviation from the theoretical value. To increase its breakdown voltage, reduce reverse leakage effects, junction barrier schottky diode structures are used.
With the development of the integrated circuit industry, the requirements of high-power and high-frequency devices are increasingly demanded at the present stage, and the performance of the power devices directly determines the quality and efficiency of products. Taking a diode as an example, the device is required to have the capability of quick on and off and the excellent performance of pressure resistance and high temperature resistance under the working environment, and the forward and reverse characteristics of the diode are particularly important. In addition, the reduction of reverse electric leakage achieves the aim of saving energy and reducing consumption while improving the efficiency of the product.
The structure of the conventional junction barrier Schottky diode is shown in fig. 1, and comprises an ohmic cathode metal layer 4, an N+ gallium nitride substrate layer 1 and an N-gallium nitride epitaxial layer 2 from bottom to top, wherein a P-type junction layer 3 is arranged in the N-gallium nitride epitaxial layer 2, and a Schottky anode metal layer 5 is arranged on the N-gallium nitride epitaxial layer 2. The current research reports about the gallium nitride junction barrier Schottky diode are relatively few, so the gallium nitride junction barrier Schottky diode has great research value. However, the existing junction barrier Schottky diode structure has no protection of a terminal structure, so that the reverse performance of the device is not outstanding enough. In addition, the P-type junction of the existing structure is made of homogeneous materials, so that the depletion degree is not high when the device works reversely, and the leakage current is larger.
