    摘要: A semiconductor device with a planar junction and self-passivating termination includes: a silicon substrate of one type of conductivity; an epitaxial layer of a second type of conductivity which is opposite to the first type of conductivity, lying on the substrate, so as to form with it a planar PN junction; a first region, of the first type of conductivity, that delimits, in its interior, an active portion of the device and extends transversely, from the surface of the epitaxial layer to the substrate with a portion having a high concentration of impurities and, on the surface, in the epitaxial layer, with a portion having a low concentration of impurities; and another region immersed in the epitaxial layer and of the same type of conductivity, but with a higher concentration of impurities. The latter region and the top portion of the first region extend toward each other with progressively decreasing concentrations of impurities. The first region may consist of a thin surface zone diffused on the walls and on the bottom of a deep groove of the type normally made in mesa devices. However, unlike mesa devices of the prior art the device according to the present invention does not require a thick layer of dielectric material in contact with the junction and its electrical properties are therefore improved and more reliable.

    摘要: A modular semiconductor power device has a conductive member consisting of an alumina plate to which copper layers are soldered on opposite sides. A chip is soldered to one of these layers and the other of these layers is soldered in turn to a metal heat sink. The chip is connected to respective copper strips which, in turn, are soldered to thermal strips originally forming part of a frame so that, after the device is encapsulated in a synthetic resin, the connecting members of the frame can be cut away to leave free ends of the latter strips exposed.

    摘要: Several junction-type semiconductor chips, specifically NPN transistors, are simultaneously produced by mesa technique from a semiconductor wafer by adhering to one major surface thereo a supporting structure including a bonding layer of wax, similarly adhering a protective layer of a relatively soft material -- likewise a wax -- to the opposite major wafer surface, and dividing the wafer into chips temporarily held together by the supporting structure. The last-mentioned step involves a splitting of the protective layer into isolated sections by making incisions in that layer cutting into the underlying wafer body, followed by an erosion of the semiconductor material of that body by an etching solution to form channels which extend completely across the wafer and terminate at the supporting structure, these channels being widened in the immediate vicinity of the protective layer to form undercuts. A continuous passivating film is applied, e.g. by vapor deposition, to the channel walls and to the several isolated sections of the protective wax layer adhering to the exposed chip faces, the film enveloping projecting edge portions of these sections which extend partly across the channel entrances. After these edge portions are mechanically cut off, film segments adhering to the isolated wax-layer sections can be removed by dissolving the wax; concurrent dissolution of the bonding layer of the supporting structure removes that structure from the chips which then remain interconnected only by parts of the passivating film bridging the lateral channel walls.
