Abstract
In some examples, an electrostatic discharge (ESD) device includes a substrate layer, a transition layer positioned on the substrate layer, a plurality of superlattice layers on the transition layer and including at least two doped superlattice layers. The ESD device further includes a plurality of doped contact structures extending from the transition layer to a surface of an outermost layer of the plurality of superlattice layers, where a first of the plurality of doped contact structures comprises an anode and a second of the plurality of doped contact structures comprises a cathode, where the plurality of doped contact structures are to generate a zero capacitance ESD device.
