Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate including silicon carbide; a drift layer disposed over the substrate including a drift region doped with a first dopant and conductivity type; and a second region, doped with a second dopant and conductivity type, adjacent to the drift region and proximal to a surface of the drift layer. The semiconductor device further includes a junction termination extension adjacent to the second region with a width and discrete regions separated in a first and second direction doped with varying concentrations of the second dopant type, and an effective doping profile of the second conductivity type of functional form that generally decreases away from the edge of the primary blocking junction. The width is less than or equal to a multiple of five times the width of the one-dimensional depletion width, and the charge tolerance of the semiconductor device is greater than 1.0×1013 per cm2.
