Popis: | The authors report the results of studies of lateral and vertical Schottky barrier diodes (SBD) based on molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) grown GaN/AlGaN heterostructures with two dimensional electron gas (2DEG) present at the heterostructure interface. The epilayers were grown by plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy under metal-rich conditions on commercially available freestanding (0001) GaN substrates. Here, the authors present detailed results for two structures with electron sheet density (N2DEG) of 4.6 × 1012 and 1 × 1013 cm−2 and room temperature mobility of μ2DEG = 1925 cm2/V s and μ2DEG = 1760 cm2/V s, respectively. The processing of lateral and vertical Schottky barrier diodes was performed by laser writer using shallow mesas and Ni/Au metallization for Schottky barriers. The direct current electrical tests performed on lateral and vertical Schottky barrier diodes yielded a turn-on voltage of 0.6 and 1 V, respectively. For both cases, the reverse current registered in the experiment was very low a... |
