  • Abstract
    A numerical model for 4H-SiC Schottky barrier diode (SBD) is proposed in this paper and the breakdown behaviors are achieved. The influences of the surface charge (Qs) on the breakdown characteristic of 4H-SiC SBD with different planar terminations, including junction termination extension (JTE) and field plate (FP) assisted JTE are calculated and investigated in detail.
