Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of silicon carbide device manufacturing, and in particular relates to a SiC ohmic contact structure and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Compared with traditional germanium and silicon materials, the advantages of the third-generation wide-bandgap semiconductor silicon carbide mainly include: the electric field withstand capacity is about ten times that of silicon materials, the band gap is about three times that of silicon materials, and the thermal conductivity is about 10 times that of silicon materials. Triple and so on. The above material characteristics make it show the incomparable advantages of traditional silicon-based devices under the conditions of extreme temperature (especially high temperature), high voltage, high frequency and high power, and strong radiation. [0003] Ohmic contact is one of the key factors affecting the application of silicon carbide devices in extreme en...
