The Relationship

We clarified the relationship between the enhanced leakage current of SiC Junction Barrier Schottky diodes and the stacking faults in the SiC crystal at the SiC and metal electrode interface by measuring the electrical and optical properties, and confirm by using the numerical simulations. Numerical simulation considering local lowering of Schottky barrier height, which is 0.8 eV lower than that of 4H-SiC well explained the 2-4 orders of magnitude higher reverse leakage current caused by the SFs. We concluded that the locally lowering of the Schottky barrier height at the 3C-SiC layer in the 4H-SiC surface is a main cause of the large reverse leakage current.

Graphene’s superior electronic and thermal properties have gained extensive attention from research and industrial sectors to study and develop the material for various applications such as in sensors and diodes. In this paper, the characteristics and performance of carbon-based nanostructure applied on a Trench Metal Oxide Semiconductor MOS barrier Schottky (TMBS) diode were investigated for high temperature application. The structure used for this study was silicon substrate with a trench and filled trench with gate oxide and polysilicon gate. A graphene nanowall (GNW) or carbon nanowall (CNW), as a barrier layer, was grown using the plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) method. The TMBS device was then tested to determine the leakage current at 60 V under various temperature settings and compared against a conventional metal-based TMBS device using TiSi2 as a Schottky barrier layer. Current-voltage (I-V) measurement data were analyzed to obtain the Schottky barrier height, ideality factor, and series resistance (Rs) values. From I-V measurement, leakage current measured at 60 V and at 423 K of the GNW-TMBS and TiSi2-TMBS diodes were 0.0685 mA and above 10 mA, respectively, indicating that the GNW-TMBS diode has high operating temperature advantages. The Schottky barrier height, ideality factor, and series resistance based on dV/dln(J) vs. J for the GNW were calculated to be 0.703 eV, 1.64, and 35 ohm respectively.

ABSTRACTAn investigation of the electrical and microstructural characteristics of the Ti contact on silicon has been carried out. The presence of As in Ti/n+-Si samples was found to retard the formation of poly crystalline silicides compared with that in Ti/p+-Si samples with BF2+ implantation. The variations of Schottky barrier height, contact resistance and junction leakage current were correlated with microstrucxtural changes. The influences of the formation of amorphous interlayer between Ti and Si on the elctrical characteristics are discussed.

Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NP) used for the channel region in inverted coplanar setup in Thin Film Transistors (TFT) were the focus of this study. The regions between the source electrode and the ZnO NP and the drain electrode were under investigation as they produce a Schottky barrier in metal-semiconductor interfaces. A more general Thermionic emission theory must be evaluated: one that considers both metal/semiconductor interfaces (MSM structures). Aluminum, gold, and nickel were used as metallization layers for source and drain electrodes. An organic-inorganic nanocomposite was used as a gate dielectric. The TFTs transfer and output characteristics curves were extracted, and a numerical computational program was used for fitting the data; hence information about Schottky Barrier Height (SBH) and ideality factors for each TFT could be estimated. The nickel metallization appears with the lowest SBH among the metals investigated. For this metal and for higher drain-to-source voltages, the SBH tended to converge to some value around 0.3 eV. The developed fitting method showed good fitting accuracy even when the metallization produced different SBH in each metal-semiconductor interface, as was the case for gold metallization. The Schottky effect is also present and was studied when the drain-to-source voltages and/or the gate voltage were increased.
