摘要
A novel P+ polysilicon/N(-)6H-SiC heterojunction diode is reported which combines the advantages of both Schottky barrier diodes and pn junction diodes. The unterminated heterojunction diodes have excellent rectification characteristics and a high breakdown voltage of 220V. The forward voltage drop measured at 100A/cm(2) is 2.7V, close to the calculated value of 2.4V. The suitability of this device for high speed switching applications was experimentally confirmed using reverse recovery measurements.
