Abstract :
Superjunction power LDMOS device implemented on the bulk Si substrate suffers from the substrate-assisted depletion (SAD) effect, which causes the charge imbalance, and thus limits the device performance. A new SJ-LDMOS structure integrated on the partial SOI (PSOI) platform is proposed in this paper, which eliminates the SAD completely and enables the making of SJ-LDMOS on bulk silicon substrate without sacrificing its electrical and thermal performance. The PSOI SJ-LDMOS was fabricated and characterized. The tested PSOI SJ-LDMOS exhibits a specific on-state resistance of 1.01mOmegamiddotcm2 while the breakdown voltage is 72.3 V.
