Impact of Anode Thickness on Breakdown Mechanisms in Vertical GaN PiN Diodes with Planar Edge Termination

GaN vertical PiN diodes with different anode thicknesses were fabricated on three native GaN wafers with the same p-layer doping concentrations, and planar hybrid edge termination. The breakdown behavior in terms of the breakdown voltage and the electroluminescence were studied as functions of the a...
