Abstract

The invention discloses a high-power high-voltage Schottky barrier diode in the technical field of diodes, comprising: a back metal layer; an N+ substrate, the N+ substrate is arranged above the back metal layer; an N epitaxial layer, and the N epitaxial layer is arranged on Above the N+ substrate, a heavily doped anode region is provided on the upper part of the N epitaxial layer; a metal silicide layer, the metal silicide layer is arranged above the N epitaxial layer, and the metal silicide layer is in contact with the heavily doped anode region; the front metal layer, the front The metal layer is disposed above the metal silicide layer and covers the metal silicide layer. The heavily doped anode region of the diode cooperates with the metal silicide layer and the front metal layer to form an independent ESD discharge region, which reduces the impact on the SSG capability of the diode and enables the chip to obtain extremely high ESD capability and SSG capability at the same time, thereby The reliability of the device is greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of diodes, in particular to a high-power high-voltage Schottky barrier diode. Background technique [0002] The Schottky barrier diode is named after its inventor, Dr. Schottky, which uses the metal-semiconductor junction principle formed by the contact of metal and semiconductor. Therefore, SBD is also called metal-semiconductor (contact) diode or surface barrier diode, which is a single carrier diode. [0003] At present, high-power high-voltage Schottky barrier diodes are gradually developing towards high reliability. The reliability of high-power high-voltage Schottky barrier diodes has been valued by more and more customers. Typical reliability indicators include HTRB, PCT, IFSM, ESD, SSG, etc. Among them, ESD capability and SSG capability are especially concerned by high-voltage and high-power SBD customers. However, there is a contradiction between ESD and SSG of traditional high-power high-voltage ...
