SOLID-STATE FIELD CURRENT REGULATOR Russian patent published in 2016 - IPC H01L29/80 

FIELD: electricity.

SUBSTANCE: in a solid-state field current regulator containing an anode with a n⁺ type of conductivity, a cathode also of a n⁺ type of conductivity, a conducting area with a n type of conductivity between the anode and cathode, and a control electrode; wherein all electrodes are located in the horizontal plane, wherein the cathode is located between the anode and control electrode closer to the control electrode, between the control electrode and a n-area a barrier layer is made, current value control is performed by the change of the area of, and hence contact resistance between the cathode and the n area at the section between the cathode and control electrode. The device can contain one or more unit structures.

EFFECT: invention simplifies design and process of device producing, increases response time, current and output power.
