Abstract
In at least one general aspect, a SiC device can include a drift region of a first conductivity type, a shielding body, and a Schottky region. The SiC device can include a rim having a second conductivity type at least partially surrounding the shielding body and the Schottky region. The SiC device can include a termination region at least partially surrounding the rim and having a doping of the second conductivity type. The termination region can have a transition zone disposed between a first zone and a second zone where the first zone has a top surface lower in depth than a depth of a top surface of the second zone and the transition zone has a recess.
