摘要： A repeatable and uniform low doped layer is formed using modulation doping by forming alternating sub-layers of doped and undoped nitride semiconductor material atop another layer. A Schottky diode is formed of such a low doped nitride semiconductor layer disposed atop a much more highly doped nitride semiconductor layer. The resulting device has both a low on-resistance when the device is forward biased and a high breakdown voltage when the device is reverse biased.

摘要： A lateral conduction Schottky diode includes multiple mesa regions upon which Schottky contacts are formed and which are at least separated by ohmic contacts to reduce the current path length and reduce current crowding in the Schottky contact, thereby reducing the forward resistance of a device. The multiple mesas may be isolated from one another and have sizes and shapes optimized for reducing the forward resistance. Alternatively, some of the mesas may be finger-shaped and intersect with a central mesa or a bridge mesa, and some or all of the ohmic contacts are interdigitated with the finger-shaped mesas. The dimensions of the finger-shaped mesas and the perimeter of the intersecting structure may be optimized to reduce the forward resistance. The Schottky diodes may be mounted to a submount in a flip chip arrangement that further reduces the forward voltage as well as improves power dissertation and reduces heat generation.

摘要： A guard ring is formed in a semiconductor region that is part of a Schottky junction or Schottky diode. The guard ring is formed by ion implantation into the semiconductor contact layer without completely annealing the semiconductor contact layer to form a high resistance region. The guard ring may be located at the edge of the layer or, alternatively, at a distance away from the edge of the layer. A Schottky metal contact is formed atop the layer, and the edges of the Schottky contact are disposed atop the guard ring.

摘要： A nitride semiconductor is grown on a silicon substrate by depositing a few mono-layers of aluminum to protect the silicon substrate from ammonia used during the growth process, and then forming a nucleation layer from aluminum nitride and a buffer structure including multiple superlattices of AlRGa(1-R)N semiconductors having different compositions and an intermediate layer of GaN or other Ga-rich nitride semiconductor. The resulting structure has superior crystal quality. The silicon substrate used in epitaxial growth is removed before completion of the device so as to provide superior electrical properties in devices such as high-electron mobility transistors.
