Current-Collapse Suppression of High-Performance Lateral AlGaN/GaN Schottky Barrier Diodes by a Thick GaN Cap Layer
2021
In this letter, we demonstrate a high-performance lateral AlGaN/GaN Schottky barrier diode (SBD) using an 80-nm thick GaN cap layer as the passivation layer and a low work-function tungsten (W) layer as the anode. A low turn-on voltage (VON) of 0.38 V and a high breakdown voltage of 2.08 kV are obtained at the same time. Additionally, the normalized dynamic on-resistance (RON,dyn) becomes only a factor of 1.13 higher than the static on-resistance (RON) after a 10-s-long bias test at 900 V. Also owing to the impressively stability of RON,dyn and VON under long-duration stress, these lateral GaN SBDs with a thick GaN cap layer show a great potential for the next-generation of power electronic devices.
