摘要:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor die includes forming a semiconductor body on a substrate. The semiconductor body has a periphery which is devoid of active devices and terminates at an edge face of the semiconductor die. The semiconductor body includes a first III-nitride semiconductor layer and a plurality of second III-nitride semiconductor layers below the first III-nitride semiconductor layer. The method further includes forming an uninsulated connection structure which extends vertically in the periphery of the semiconductor body and provides a vertical leakage path for at least some of the second III-nitride semiconductor layers either to the substrate or to a metallization layer disposed above the semiconductor body, but not to both. Additional semiconductor die manufacturing methods are provided.

An uninsulated connection structure extends vertically in the periphery of the semiconductor body and provides a vertical leakage path for at least some of the second III-nitride semiconductor layers to the substrate, to a metallization layer disposed above the substrate, or to both.

A high-electron-mobility semiconductor device includes: a buffer region having first, second and third cross-sections forming a stepped lateral profile, the first cross-section being thicker than the third cross-section and comprising a first buried field plate disposed therein, the second cross-section interposed between the first and third cross-sections and forming oblique angles with the first and third cross-sections; and a barrier region of substantially uniform thickness extending along the stepped lateral profile of the buffer region, the barrier region being separated from the first buried field plate by a portion of the buffer region. The buffer region is formed by a first semiconductor material and the barrier region is formed by a second semiconductor material. The first and second semiconductor materials have different band-gaps such that an electrically conductive channel including a two-dimensional charge carrier gas arises at an interface between the buffer and barrier regions due to piezoelectric effects.
