Abstract

A Schottky device includes a plurality of mesa structures where one or more of the mesa structures includes a doped region having a multi-concentration dopant profile. In accordance with an embodiment, the Schottky device is formed from a semiconductor material of a first conductivity type. Trenches having sidewalk and floors are formed in the semiconductor material to form a plurality of mesa structures. A doped region having a multi-concentration impurity profile is formed in at least one trench, where the impurity materials of the doped region having the multi-concentration impurity profile are of a second conductivity type. A Schottky contact is formed to at least one of the mesa structures having the dope region with the multi-concentration impurity profile.
