    Abstract: A method for fabricating a vertical GaN power device includes providing a first GaN material having a first conductivity type and forming a second GaN material having a second conductivity type and coupled to the first GaN material to create a junction. The method further includes implanting ions through the second GaN material and into a first portion of the first GaN material to increase a doping concentration of the first conductivity type. The first portion of the junction is characterized by a reduced breakdown voltage relative to a breakdown voltage of a second portion of the junction.

    Abstract: A method for fabricating an edge termination structure includes providing a substrate having a first surface and a second surface and a first conductivity type, forming a first GaN epitaxial layer of the first conductivity type coupled to the first surface of the substrate, and forming a second GaN epitaxial layer of a second conductivity type opposite to the first conductivity type. The second GaN epitaxial layer is coupled to the first GaN epitaxial layer. The method also includes implanting ions into a first region of the second GaN epitaxial layer to electrically isolate a second region of the second GaN epitaxial layer from a third region of the second GaN epitaxial layer. The method further includes forming an active device coupled to the second region of the second GaN epitaxial layer and forming the edge termination structure coupled to the third region of the second GaN epitaxial layer.
