Both forward and especially better reverse I-V characteristics, including lower leakage current and higher breakdown voltage, are demonstrated by comparing our proposed TM-TMBS with a regular trench MOS barrier Schottky rectifier （TMBS） as well as a conventional planar Schottky barrier diode rectifier. Optimized device parameters corresponding to the requirement for high breakdown voltage are given. With optimized parameters, TM-TMBS attains a breakdown voltage of 186 V, which is 6.3% larger than that of the optimized TMBS, and a leakage current of 4.3×10^-6 A/cm2, which is 26% smaller than that of the optimized TMBS. The relationship between optimized breakdown voltage and some device parameters is studied. Explanations and design rules are given according to this relationship.展开更多

The reverse current density of the proposed JBS rectifier at 300 K and 800 V is about 3.3 × 10-s times that of the common JBS rectifier at no expense of the forward voltage drop. This is because the depletion layer thickness in the P-well region at the same reverse voltage is larger than in the P＋ grid, resulting in a lower spreading current and tunneling current. As a result, the breakdown voltage of the proposed JBS rectifier is over 1.6 kV, that is about 0.8 times more than that of the common JBS rectifier due to the uniform electric field. Although the series resistance of the proposed JBS rectifier is a little larger than that of the common JBS rectifier, the figure of merit （FOM） of the proposed JBS rectifier is about 2.9 times that of the common JBS rectifier. Based on simulating the values of susceptibility of the two JBS rectifiers to electrostatic discharge （ESD） in the human body model （HBM） circuits, the failure energy of the proposed JBS rectifier increases 17% compared with that of the common JBS rectifier.展开更多

One reason for peak voltage is the resonance of the transformer's leakage inductance and the rectifier diodes' junction capacitances. The other reason is that the fast reverse recovery current of the rectifier diodes flows through the transformer's leakage inductance. An H bridge composed of four diodes,an auxiliary inductance, and a clamping winding were adopted in the proposed converter,and peak voltage was suppressed by varying the equivalent inductance, principally in different operating modes. Experimental results demonstrate that the peak voltage of rectifier diodes decreases by 43%,the auxiliary circuit does not lead to additional loss, and the rising rate, resonant frequency,and amplitude of the rectifier diodes' voltage decrease.Peak voltage and electromagnetic interference( EMI) of rectifier diodes are suppressed.展开更多
