AbstractHfO2 as a dielectric material in MOS capacitor by direct sputtering of Hf in an O2 ambient onto a Si substrate was studied. The results showed that the interface layer formed between HfO2 and the Si substrate was affected by the RTA time in the 500°C annealing temperature. Since the interface layer is mainly composed of hafnium silicate, and has high interface trap density, the effective barrier height is therefore lowered with increased RTA time. The change in the effective barrier height will affect the FN tunneling current and the operation of the MOS devices when it is applied for nonvolatile memory devices.

ABSTRACTCopper Schottky diodes on n-type GaN grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition were achieved and investigated. Ti/Al was used as the ohmic contact. The copper metal is deposited by the Sputter system. The barrier height was determined to be as high as (ΦB =1.13eV by current-voltage (I-V) method and corrected to be ΦB =1.35eV as considered the ideality factor, n, with the value of 1.2. By the capacitance-voltage (C-V) method, the barrier height is determined to be ΦB =1.41eV. Both results indicate that the sputtered copper metal is a high barrier height Schottky metal for n-type GaN.

In this paper the effects of high energy (3.0 MeV) electrons irradiation over a dose ranges from 6 to 15 MGy at elevated temperatures 298 to 448 K on the current-voltage characteristics of 4H-SiC Schottky diodes were investigated. The experiment results show that after irradiation with 3.0 MeV forward bias current of the tested diodes decreased, while reverse bias current increased. The degradation of ideality factor, n, saturation current, Is, and barrier height, Phib, were not noticeable after the irradiation. However, the series resistance, Rs, has increased significantly with increasing radiation dose. In addition, temperature dependence current-voltage measurements, were conducted for temperature in the range of 298 to 448 K. The Schottky barrier height, saturation current, and series resistance, are found to be temperature dependent, while ideality factor remained constant. DOI: 10.21883/FTP.2017.12.45193.8646

We study the electron spectrum and the density of states of long-wave electrons in the curved graphene nanoribbon based on the Dirac equation in a curved space-time. The current-voltage characteristics for the contact of nanoribbon-quantum dot have been revealed. We also analyze the dependence of the specimen properties on its geometry.
