Popis: We fabricated a diamond metal oxide semiconductor structure with a silicon dioxide (SiO2) film as the gate dielectric on B-doped diamond grown by a high-power-density microwave-plasma chemical vapor deposition method. The SiO2/B-doped diamond interface was characterized using a transient photocapacitance technique. The concentration of B in the B-doped diamond film was estimated to be 4.0 × 1017 cm−3, based on the intensity ratio of the exciton emissions observed in the cathodoluminescence measurements at approximately 80 K. Acceptor-type defects could be observed at approximately 1.28 and 1.82 eV above the valence-band edge. The observed defect at approximately 1.82 eV above the valence-band edge is expected to be an interface state of the SiO2/B-doped diamond.
