    摘要: Methods of achieving high breakdown voltages in semiconductor devices by suppressing the surface flashover using high dielectric strength insulating encapsulation material are generally described. In one embodiment of the present invention, surface flashover in AlGaN/GaN heterostructure field-effect transistors (HFETs) is suppressed by using high dielectric strength insulating encapsulation material. Surface flashover in as-fabricated III-Nitride based HFETs limits the operating voltages at levels well below the breakdown voltages of GaN.

    摘要: An apparatus includes an enhancement mode transistor having multiple Group III-V layers above a substrate and a gate above the Group III-V layers. The gate includes multiple layers of material that form at least a portion of a thyristor. The multiple layers of material may include a first p-type layer of material, an n-type layer of material on the first p-type layer, and a second p-type layer of material on the n-type layer. The multiple layers of material may also include a p-type layer of material, an n-type layer of material on the p-type layer, and a Schottky metal layer on the n-type layer. The enhancement mode transistor may represent a high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) or a heterostructure field effect transistor (HFET).

    摘要: A trench metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor (TMOSFET) includes a plurality of mesas disposed between a plurality of gate regions. Each mesa includes a drift region and a body region. The width of the mesa is in the order of quantum well dimension at the interface between the gate insulator regions and the body regions The TMOSFET also includes a plurality of gate insulator regions disposed between the gate regions and the body regions, drift regions, and drain region. The thickness of the gate insulator regions between the gate regions and the drain region results in a gate-to-drain electric field in an OFF-state that is substantially lateral aiding to deplete the charge in the drift regions.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a semiconductor device can include a substrate including a first type dopant. The semiconductor device can also include an epitaxial layer located above the substrate and including a lower concentration of the first type dopant than the substrate. In addition, the semiconductor device can include a junction extension region located within the epitaxial layer and including a second type dopant. Furthermore, the semiconductor device can include a set of field rings in physical contact with the junction extension region and including a higher concentration of the second type dopant than the junction extension region. Moreover, the semiconductor device can include an edge termination structure in physical contact with the set of field rings.
