  • Abstract
    Experimental results of reverse electrical characteristics of high voltage bipolar diodes are reported. Junction diameter, environment, and techniques for junction creation and periphery protection influences on breakdown are investigated. These results on mesa and planar structures are representative of the main current difficulties for reproducible realisation of SiC high power devices
