Abstract

A semiconductor device structure according to some embodiments includes a silicon carbide substrate having a first conductivity type, a silicon carbide drift layer having the first conductivity type on the silicon carbide substrate and having an upper surface opposite the silicon carbide substrate, and a buried junction structure in the silicon carbide drift layer. The buried junction structure has a second conductivity type opposite the first conductivity type and has a junction depth that is greater than about one micron.
