Abstract

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device is presented. The method includes providing a semiconductor layer comprising silicon carbide, wherein the semiconductor layer comprises a first region doped with a first dopant type. The method further includes implanting the semiconductor layer with a second dopant type using a single implantation mask and a substantially similar implantation dose to form a second region and a junction termination extension (JTE) in the semiconductor layer, wherein the implantation dose is in a range from about 2×1013 cm−2 to about 12×1013 cm−2. Semiconductor devices are also presented.
