Reduction of on-resistance and current crowding in quasi-vertical GaN power diodes

This paper studies the key parameters affecting on-resistance and current crowding in quasi-vertical GaN power devices by experiment and simulation. The current distribution in the drift region, n⁻-GaN, was found to be mainly determined by the sheet resistance of the current spreading layer, n⁺-GaN....
