A wafer-level continuous-switching methodology is employed to characterize the dynamic on-resistance and forward voltage under varying switching frequencies (100–300 kHz), duty cycles (30%–70%), off-state switching voltages (up to 200 V), and temperatures ( 25 ∘ C– 125 ∘ C). A capture-emission trapping model is used to extract time constants and explain the observed duty cycle- and temperature-dependent degradation behaviors. Through a systematic comparison of three field-plate configurations, the study reveals that an additional metal field plate effectively mitigates electric field crowding and trap occupation, which suppresses dynamic switching degradation. This work provides critical insights into the physical mechanisms governing degradation in AlGaN/GaN-based power SBDs, aiming to improve their dynamic switching stability.engJournal article10.1109/ted.2026.3714751WOS:0018436676000011557-9646
