Abstract
Many workers have discussed the possibility of improving the voltage capabilities of so-called planar diodes by the use of a metallic overlay that counteracts the effects of surface charge and the finite radius of junction edge curvature. This paper extends these results by detailing design considerations essential in achieving reliable, low-leakage, high-yield diodes having breakdowns in excess of 1500 V.
