Abstract: The present disclosure provides a drop impact prediction method and system for heavy equipment airdrop based on a neural network. The drop impact prediction method includes the following steps: S1: acquiring a plurality of sets of sample data by using a finite element model for drop simulation of heavy equipment airdrop; S2: determining structural parameters of a BP neural network, and pre-processing the structural parameters; S3: constructing a BP neural network model; and S4: predicting a drop impact situation of heavy equipment airdrop in an actual application process by using the trained BP neural network model.

Abstract: A JFET having vertical and horizontal channel elements may be made from a semiconductor material such as silicon carbide using a first mask for multiple implantations to form a horizontal planar JFET region comprising a lower gate, a horizontal channel, and an upper gate, all above a drift region resting on a drain substrate region, such that the gates and horizontal channel are self-aligned with the same outer size and outer shape in plan view. A second mask may be used to create a vertical channel region abutting the horizontal channel region. The horizontal channel and vertical channel may each have multiple layers with varying doping concentrations. Angled implantations may use through the first mask to implant portions of the vertical channel regions. The window of the second mask may partially overlap the horizontal JFET region to insure abutment of the vertical and horizontal channel regions.

Abstract: A vertical JFET with a ladder termination may be made by a method using a limited number of masks. A first mask is used to form mesas and trenches in active cell and termination regions simultaneously. A mask-less self-aligned process is used to form silicide source and gate contacts. A second mask is used to open windows to the contacts. A third mask is used to pattern overlay metallization. An optional fourth mask is used to pattern passivation. Optionally the channel may be doped via angled implantation, and the width of the trenches and mesas in the active cell region may be varied from those in the termination region.

Abstract: A JFET is formed with vertical and horizontal elements made from a high band-gap semiconductor material such as silicon carbide via triple implantation of a substrate comprising an upper drift region and a lower drain region, the triple implantation forming a lower gate, a horizontal channel, and an upper gate, in a portion of the drift region. A source region may be formed through a portion of the top gate, and the top and bottom gates are connected. A vertical channel region is formed adjacent to the planar JFET region and extending through the top gate, horizontal channel, and bottom gate to connect to the drift, such that the lower gate modulates the vertical channel as well as the horizontal channel, and current from the sources flows first through the horizontal channel and then through the vertical channel into the drift.
