Abstract
The present invention discloses a trench Schottky barrier diode (SBD) and a manufacturing method thereof. The trench SBD includes: an epitaxial layer, formed on a substrate; multiple mesas, defined by multiple trenches; a field plate, formed on the epitaxial layer and filled in the multiple trenches, wherein a Schottky contact is formed between the field plate and top surfaces of the mesas; a termination region, formed outside the multiple mesas and electrically connected to the field plate; a field isolation layer, formed on the upper surface and located outside the termination region; and at least one mitigation electrode, formed below the upper surface outside the termination region, and is electrically connected to the field plate through the field isolation layer, wherein the mitigation electrode and the termination region are separated by part of a dielectric layer and part of the epitaxial layer.
