Abstract

Current-voltage (I-V) characteristics  of  Ag/TiO₂/n-InP Schottky barrier diodes
have been investigated in the temperature range 300-400 K . Here TiO₂ film
with 120 Å thickness  has been used as interfacial layer between metal and
semiconductor layers. The zero-bias barrier height (F_b0) and
ideality factor n determined from forward bias I-V characteristics  were found strongly dependent
on temperature. We calculated parameters of the diode, by using Termoionic
Emission Theory (TE), we have seen that the results are in accordiance with the
theory. According to these results ideality factor n decrease and barrier height
(F_b0) increase with an increase in
temperature.

Ag/TiO2/n-InP SCHOTTKY BARİYER DİYOTUN AKIM-VOLTAJ KARAKTERİSTİKLERİ

Abstract

Ag/TiO₂/n-InP/Au
Schottky bariyerli diyotların akım-voltaj karakteristikleri 300-400 K sıcaklık
aralığında incelendi. Metal ile yarıiletken arasına 120 Å kalınlığında
TiO₂ film
tabakası oluşturuldu. Diyotun ileri beslem akım-voltaj (I-V) karakteristiklerinden
termiyonik emisyon modeline göre, sıfır beslem bariyer yüksekliği ve idealite
faktörü parametreleri hesaplandı. Parametrelerin sıcaklığa bağlı olarak
değiştiği ve sıcaklık artarken bariyer yüksekliğinin arttığı ve idealite
faktörünün azaldığı görüldü.
