Semiconductor devices that include a semiconductor structure integrated with one or more diamond material layers. A first diamond material layer is formed on a bottom surface and optionally, the side surfaces of the semiconductor structure. In some embodiments, at least a portion of the semiconductor structure is embedded in the diamond. An electrical device can be formed on a top surface of the semiconductor structure. A second diamond material layer can be formed on the top surface of the semiconductor structure. The semiconductor structure can include a III-nitride material such as GaN, which can be embedded within a the first diamond material layer or encased by the first and/or second diamond material layer.

Silicon carbide PiN diodes are presented with reduced temperature coefficient crossover points by limited p type contact area to limit hole injection in the n type drift layer in order to provide a lower current at which the diode shifts from negative temperature coefficient to a positive temperature coefficient of forward voltage for mitigating thermal runaway.
摘要:
A heterojunction between thin films of NCD and 4H—SiC was developed. Undoped and B-doped NCDs were deposited on both n− and p− SiC epilayers. I-V measurements on p+ NCD/n− SiC indicated Schottky rectifying behavior with a turn-on voltage of around 0.2 V. The current increased over eight orders of magnitude with an ideality factor of 1.17 at 30° C. Ideal energy-band diagrams suggested a possible conduction mechanism for electron transport from the SiC conduction band to either the valence band or acceptor level of the NCD film.
摘要:
Thin layers of high quality single-crystal piezoelectric material, high temperature sintered piezoelectric material, or high quality thin film grown material are transferred to an appropriate substrate using hydrogen ion implant layer splitting and bonding. The substrate to which the thin piezoelectric material layer is transferred may contain CMOS or GaAs circuitry. When the substrate contains CMOS or GaAs circuitry, the circuitry on the surface of the GaAs or CMOS substrate may be covered with an oxide. The oxide is then planarized using chemical mechanical polishing, and the thin film resonator material is transferred to the GaAs or CMOS circuit using wafer bonding and hydrogen ion layer splitting.
