Abstract :
In this paper, the fine pattern effect on both the leakage current and the soft recovery has been analyzed, for the first time. From experimental results, it has been achieved that the leakage current of the fine pattern MPS diode (FP-MPS) approaches to that of PiN diode while keeping high Schottky area ratio (-75%). Furthermore, FP-MPS obtains better trade-off relationship, such as Qrr-dv/dt
