Background technology
In October, 2006, the people such as V.Rodov have delivered the article of a piece " Super Barrier Rectifier-A New Generation of Power Diode " by name, mention first super barrier rectifier (SBR:Super Barrier Rectifier) and its principle, structure, technique and performance are described in detail in article.Nowadays both at home and abroad some companies successfully develop a series of products on its basis, and voltage is from tens volts to several hectovolts, and electric current is from several amperes to tens amperes etc.There is the advantages such as efficiency height and good reliability due to SBR and be widely used in vehicle electronics, the fields such as computer adapter.Specifically, its efficiency highly depends primarily on that forward conduction voltage drop is low, switching speed is fast, turn-off electric leakage less and reverse recovery time short factors; It is strong that good reliability depends primarily on shock resistance, and SBR discharges impact energy by PN junction, and traditional Schottky diode can only release energy by Schottky barrier.With regard to its technique, super barrier rectifier is similar to the VDMOS technique of existing maturation; Also similar with VDMOS with regard to its structure, difference be only grid (gate) sources (source) method of attachment, VDMOS grid source be separate and SBR calls anode (anode) grid source short circuit; With regard to its principle, because grid source short circuit has caused a kind of special effects, when namely grid source adds positive voltage simultaneously, in VDMOS, be called the region meeting transoid of raceway groove, so just, reduced raceway groove and intermetallic barrier height, thereby reduced forward voltage drop, super potential barrier is also gained the name thus.

Existing another kind of superpotential is built rectifier device structure as shown in Figure 2, and its basic structure is as the first superpotential base rectifier device structure.In addition, in order to improve reverse breakdown voltage, it builds rectifier device structure periphery in superpotential has increased a termination structure, and this termination structure is formed by the second conductive type ion heavily doped region 109, and described the second conductive type ion heavily doped region 109 is connected with described top electrode 106.Although this structure can tentatively be improved the characteristic such as reverse breakdown voltage and reverse leakage current of device, but in actual application, such structure often can not meet the requirement of use completely.
