System and method for fabricating diodes

摘要

This invention is directed to a system and method of fabricating PN and PiN diodes by diffusing an acceptor impurity into a substrate. This invention is particularly advantageous for fabricating SiC diodes having linearly graded, deep pn junctions. One method that this invention uses to achieve its advantages is by diffusing an acceptor impurity into a substrate using a crucible, acceptor source, substrate, and furnace.
