Second Schottky contact metal layer to improve GaN Schottky diode performance

摘要

A Schottky contact is disposed atop a surface of a semiconductor. A first Schottky contact metal layer is disposed atop a first portion of the semiconductor surface. A second Schottky contact metal is disposed atop a second portion of the surface layer and adjoins the first Schottky contact metal layer. The first Schottky contact metal layer has a lower work function than the second Schottky contact metal layer.
