Abstract
This paper presents a novel, radial confinement approach to improve the breakdown performance of lateral power devices on SOS technologies. The method is based on the fact that the variation in charge can be achieved by changing the width of the device form anode to cathode. Experimental results from radial diodes fabricated in SOS technology show a blocking capability higher than conventional counter parts
