Abstract
Trench-based power rectifiers with optimized electrical performance are presented in this letter in order to cover high-temperature applications and high-voltage capabilities ranging from 70 to 100 V. A three-step epitaxial layer substantially improves forward, reverse, and dynamic recovery characteristics up to 200degC, exhibiting considerable advantages over conventional planar rectifiers.
