摘要:
A magnetic storage device which includes a magnetizable storage disk, a read/write magnetic head arranged on a flying body and a track guidance system has a servo head formed on a long side face of the flying body in the form of a magneto restrictive sensor. Subsequent electronics keep the head on at least one separate guidance track.
摘要:
An integrated vertical SiC—PN power diode has a highly doped SiC semiconductor body of a first conductivity type, a low-doped drift zone of the first conductivity type, arranged above the semiconductor body on the emitter side, an emitter zone of a second conductivity type, applied to the drift zone, and at least one thin intermediate layer of the first conductivity type. The intermediate layer is arranged inside the drift zone, has a higher doping concentration than the drift zone, and divides the drift zone into at least one first anode-side drift zone layer and at least one second cathode-side drift zone layer. There is also disclosed a circuit configuration with such SiC—PN power diodes.
摘要:
A semiconductor configuration, in particular based on silicon carbide, is specified which rapidly limits a short-circuit current to an acceptable current value. For this purpose, when a predetermined saturation current is exceeded, a lateral channel region is pinched off, and the current is limited to a value below the saturation current.
摘要:
An n- or p-doped semiconductor region accommodates the depletion zone of an active area of the semiconductor component with a vertical extension dependent upon an applied blocking voltage. The junction termination for the active area is constituted with a semiconductor doped oppositely to the semiconductor region, and is arranged immediately adjacently around the active area on or in a surface of the semiconductor region. The lateral extension of the junction termination is greater than the maximum vertical extension of the depletion zone, and the semiconductor region as well as the junction termination are constituted with a semiconductor with a band gap of at least 2 eV.
摘要:
A magnetic head having layered structure for a recording medium for vertical magnetization contains a conductor body on a non-magnetic substrate for conducting the magnetic flux with two magnet legs, the end pieces of which form a thin main pole and a comparatively thicker auxiliary pole. The two magnetic poles are separated by an insulating gap layer of at least 5 .mu.m. This magnetic head and particularly its gap layer should be relatively simple to produce. Recesses are provided in the substrate to submerge at least the end piece of the auxiliary pole of one magnet leg and an adjoining part of this leg as well as at least part of the gap layer.
摘要:
A method for structuring silicon carbide by photolithography and plasma etching wherein a substrate of silicon carbide is covered on a flat side with a structured silicon layer, and the plasma etching is then carried out with a gaseous mixture of a halogenated hydrocarbon and oxygen, the oxygen being present in an amount of at least 40% and preferably 70 to 95% by volume.
摘要:
A semiconductor device including a drift zone of a first conductivity type serving as a substrate layer having a front side and a back side. A first contact electrode is arranged at the front side of the drift zone. A control region is arranged at the front side and controls an injection of carriers of at least the first conductivity type into the drift zone. A second contact electrode is arranged at the backside of the drift zone. The drift zone is arranged to carry a carrier flow between the first and the second contact electrode. The drift zone includes a silicon carbide wafer with a net carrier concentration less than 1015 cm−3 and a carrier lifetime of at least 50 ns.

The semiconductor configuration is formed with a lateral channel region and an adjoining vertical channel region in an n-conductive first semiconductor region. When a predetermined saturation current is exceeded, the lateral channel region is pinched off and the current is limited to a value below the saturation current.
摘要:
A method for manufacturing a silicon carbide single crystal. A silicon carbide single crystal is grown. The crystal has a boron concentration less than 5×1014 cm−3, and a concentration of transition metals impurities less than 5×1014 cm−3. Intrinsic defects in the crystal are minimised. The intrinsic defects include silicon vacancies or carbon vacancies. The crystal is annealed for a desired time at a temperature above 700° C. in an atmosphere containing any of the gases hydrogen or a mixture of hydrogen and an inert gas, such that the density of intrinsic defects and any associated defects is decreased to a concentration low enough to confer to the crystal a desired carrier life time of at least 50 ns at room temperature.
