METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR JUNCTION TERMINATION IN GALLIUM NITRIDE MATERIALS USING CONDUCTIVITY MODULATION

摘要

A semiconductor structure includes a GaN substrate having a first surface and a second surface opposing the first surface. The GaN substrate is characterized by a first conductivity type and a first dopant concentration. The semiconductor structure also includes a first GaN epitaxial layer of the first conductivity type coupled to the second surface of the GaN substrate and a second GaN epitaxial layer of a second conductivity type coupled to the first GaN epitaxial layer. The second GaN epitaxial layer includes an active device region, a first junction termination region characterized by an implantation region having a first implantation profile, and a second junction termination region characterized by an implantation region having a second implantation profile.
