Shielded Ohmic Contact (ShOC) Rectifier: A New Metal-Semiconductor Device with Excellent Forward and Reverse Characteristics
Kumar, M. Jagadesh
Original · EN
We report a new structure, called the Shielded Ohmic Contact (ShOC) rectifier which utilizes trenches filled with a high barrier metal to shield an Ohmic contact during the reverse bias. When the device is forward biased, the Ohmic contact conducts with a low forward drop. However, when reverse biased, the Ohmic contact is completely shielded by the high barrier Schottky contact resulting in a low reverse leakage current. Two dimensional numerical simulation is used to evaluate and explain the superior performance of the proposed ShOC rectifier.
