Many researches pay attention to the metal-semiconductor interface barrier, due to its effect on device. Deliberate growing an interface layer to affect and improve the quality of device, especially metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) structures, arouses wide attention. In this paper, Be-doped GaAs was grown on substrate wafer by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on purpose before depositing insulator layer, and then MgO film as the dielectric interface layer of Au/GaAs were deposited using atomic layer deposition (ALD) method. The interface electrical characteristics of the metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) structures were investigated in detail. The barrier height and ideal factor of GaAs diode parameters were calculated by means of current-voltage (I-V) characteristics. Experimental result showed that along with the increasing of the doping content, the Schottky barrier height increasing, but the ideal factor decrease at first and then increase.

ABSTRACTGallium nitride (n-type) films of thickness 300nm were grown on c-plane sapphire substrates using plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy (PA-MBE). High resolution X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence measurements were used to confirm the crystalline and optical qualities of the grown films. Metal-semiconductor Schottky diodes were fabricated using Pt as the Schottky metal and Al as the Ohmic metal contact. Metal-insulator-semiconductor Schottky diodes were also fabricated using HfO2 (10nm) as the insulator material. Diode parameters like barrier height and ideality factor were extracted from I-V measurements. Introduction of HfO2 as the insulator layer leads to better rectifying behavior (forward to reverse current ratio improves from 5.1 to 8.9) with a reduction in reverse leakage current (by 7.4 times), increase in barrier height (from 0.62eV to 0.74eV) and a reduction in ideality factor (from 6 to 4.1) of the Schottky diode.

We report on the influence of the low deposition temperature of ZnO as semiconductor layer on the electrical characteristics of metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) structures. The ZnO films were deposited by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering with variation of temperature from 40°C, 60°C, 80°C, 100°C and 120°C. PMMA were used as insulator layer in the MIS structures. It is found that the ZnO films grown at 120°C has better crystallinity compared to other temperature. I-V characteristics results shown that the different deposition temperature of ZnO films affect the performance of MIS.

In this work, we present a normally-off recessed-gate AlGaN/GaN metal-insulator-semiconductor high-electron-mobility transistor (MIS-HEMT) using a TiO2/SiN dual gate-insulator. We analyzed the electrical characteristics of the proposed device and found that the dual gate-insulator device achieves higher on-state currents than the device using a SiN gate-insulator because the high-k insulator layer of the dual gate-insulator improves the gate-controllability. The device using a TiO2/SiN gate-insulator shows better gate leakage current characteristics than the device with only TiO2 gate-insulator because of the high quality SiN gate-insulator. Therefore, the device using a dual gate-insulator can overcome disadvantages of a device using only TiO2 gate-insulator. To better predict the power consumption and the switching speed, we simulated the specific on-resistance (Ron, sp) according to the gate-to-drain distance (LGD) using the two-dimensional ATLAS simulator. The proposed device exhibits a threshold voltage of 2.3 V, a maximum drain current of 556 mA/mm, a low Ron, sp of 1.45 mΩ·cm2, and a breakdown voltage of 631 V at an off-state current of 1 μA/mm with VGS = 0 V. We have confirmed that a normally-off recessed-gate AlGaN/GaN MIS-HEMT using a TiO2/SiN dual gate-insulator is a promising candidate for power electronic applications.
