Abstract

There is a great interest in monolithic GaN semiconductor devices with high current capability for power electronics. In this letter, large area vertical GaN p-n diodes fabricated on bulk GaN substrates are discussed. Diodes with areas as large as 16 ${\rm mm}^{2}$ with breakdown voltages exceeding 700 V and pulsed (100 $\mu{\rm s}$ ) currents approaching 400 A are reported. This is made possible for the first time in part due to the recent availability of improved quality bulk GaN substrates.
