Abstract:
An integrated circuit includes a silicon carbide (SiC) epitaxial layer disposed on a SiC layer, wherein the SiC epitaxial layer has a first conductivity-type and the SiC layer has a second conductivity-type that is opposite to the first conductivity-type. The integrated circuit also includes a junction isolation feature disposed in the SiC epitaxial layer and having the second conductivity-type. The junction isolation feature extends vertically through a thickness of the SiC epitaxial layer and contacts the SiC layer, and wherein the junction isolation feature has a depth of at least about 2 micrometers (μm).

Claim (Index 21):
The method of  claim 13 , comprising forming a bias contact on top of the junction isolation feature, wherein the bias contact electrically couples the junction isolation feature to one or more terminal contacts of the adjacent planar devices.
