Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, the materials used in SPiN diodes used in plasma reconfigurable antennas at home and abroad are all bulk silicon materials. This material has the problem of low carrier mobility in the intrinsic region, which affects the carrier concentration in the intrinsic region of the SPiN diode. Affect its solid-state plasma concentration; and the P region and N region of this structure are mostly formed by implantation process, which requires a large implant dose and energy, high requirements on equipment, and is incompatible with existing processes; and the diffusion process, Although the junction depth is deep, but at the same time, the area of ​​the P region and the N region is large, the integration degree is low, and the doping concentration is uneven, which affects the electrical performance of the SPiN diode, resulting in poor controllability of the solid-state plasma concentration and distribution.
