Abstract
A lateral power device with complementary homogenization field structure (C-HOF) is proposed and experimentally proved in this letter. The C-HOF is formed by introducing a P-type metal insulator semiconductor (P-MIS) on the N-MIS. The complementary P/N-MIS and the PN junction between them ensure the homogenized field <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">${E}_{\text {hof}}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> distributions and the high breakdown voltage <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">${V}_{\text {B}}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> in higher doping. Based on the C-HOF mechanism, experiments were performed, which demonstrated that a significantly increased N-drift doping dose up to 6.8 <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\times \,\,10^{{12}}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> cm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">−2</sup> can be realized in the C-HOF device.
