“…Recent demonstrations of the ability of NiO/β-Ga 2 O 3 vertical geometry rectifiers to achieve excellent performance [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24] and breakdown voltages in excess of 8 kV [7,[25][26][27] has revitalized interest in the heterojunction approach to overcome the lack of a practical p-type doping capability for β-Ga 2 O 3 . Several groups have now demonstrated devices with breakdown voltage and on-state resistance beyond the 1D limit of both GaN and SiC, showing the increasing maturity of Ga 2 O 3 power device technology [7,25]. These devices are intended for power conversion applications in the 1.2-20 kV range such as electric vehicles, solid-state transformers, data centers, motor control, photovoltaic inverters, other renewable energy conversion, and electric grid protection [1,3,4,6].…”
