Abstract

The application space for GaN devices is expanding. During our study of Vertical GaN device technology for power electronics, one of the phenomenal advancements was achieving a high-voltage, robust avalanche in p-n diodes. A high-quality p-n junction, although superficially simple, can be fundamentally limited in offering a uniform avalanche. Uniformity of avalanche is a critical parameter that is often overlooked during device designs and other metrics.
