    摘要: A semiconductor substrate includes: a base substrate layer doped with a first type dopant; a first epitaxial layer on the base substrate layer that has a first thickness and is doped with the first type dopant to provide a first resistivity; a second epitaxial layer on the first epitaxial layer that has a second thickness and is doped with the first type dopant to provide a second resistivity (less than the third resistivity); and a third epitaxial layer on the second epitaxial layer that has a third thickness and is doped with the first type dopant to provide a third resistivity (less than the second resistivity). An oxide field trench transistor includes a trench with insulated polygate and polysource regions extending into the semiconductor substrate and passing through the first doped region, the second doped region, the third epitaxial layer and partially into the second epitaxial layer.

    摘要: A semiconductor device is described. The semiconductor device includes: a plurality of stripe-shaped gates formed in a semiconductor substrate; a plurality of needle-shaped field plate trenches formed in the semiconductor substrate between neighboring ones of the stripe-shaped gates; an insulating layer on the semiconductor substrate; and a plurality of contacts extending through the insulating layer and contacting field plates in the needle-shaped field plate trenches. The contacts have a width that is less than or equal to a width of the needle-shaped field plate trenches, as measured in a first lateral direction which is transverse to a lengthwise extension of the stripe-shaped gates. In the first lateral direction, the contacts are spaced apart from the stripe-shaped gates by a same or greater distance than the needle-shaped field plate trenches. Methods of producing the semiconductor device are also described.

    摘要: A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a nitride semiconductor layer formed on the substrate, a source electrode and a drain electrode formed in the nitride semiconductor layer. The source electrode and drain electrode are arranged side by side in a first direction. A gate electrode is formed on the nitride semiconductor layer between the source electrode and the drain electrode. A first protective film is formed on the nitride semiconductor layer, and covers the first protective film covering the source electrode, the drain electrode, and the gate electrode. A source field plate is formed on the first protective film between the gate electrode and the drain electrode in a plan view. A dielectric-breakdown inhibition portion includes a part positioned between an end of the source field plate and an end of the drain electrode in a sectional view, and inhibits dielectric breakdown of the first protective film.

    摘要: A high electron mobility transistor includes a substrate, a semiconductor channel layer, a semiconductor barrier layer, a gate field plate, a source electrode, at least one first field plate, and a second field plate. The gate field plate is disposed on the semiconductor barrier layer. The source electrode is disposed on one side of the gate field plate, and the first field plate is disposed on the other side of the gate field plate and laterally spaced apart from the gate field plate. The second field plate covers the gate field plate and the first field plate and is electrically connected to the source electrode, where the area of the second field plate is larger than the sum of the area of the gate field plate and the area of the first field plate when perceived from a top-down perspective.
