A comprehensive study on the off-state performance of Cathode -Schottky Contact synthetic single crystal (SSC) diamond Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) is the subject of this paper. Three termination structures+ suitable for unipolar diamond power devices are numerically Drift Region 8-25pm investigated. Comparisons between the three terminations, based n D on blocking performance and area consumption are presented. Optimum design parameters derived from simulations are included for each structure. Experimental results of reverse-Sltre biased diamond SBDs for the first time with ramp angle P++ Diamond 200-400pm termination are also presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
