摘要
We have investigated the electrical properties of Ru/Ni/n-GaN Schottky structure using current-voltage (I-V) and capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements at room temperature. The barrier height (Phi(bo)) and ideality factor (n) of Ru/Ni/n-GaN Schottky structure are found to be 0.66 eV and 1.44, respectively. The Phi(bo) and the series resistance (R-S) obtained from Cheung's method are compared with modified Norde's method, and it is seen that there is a good agreement with each other. The energy distribution of interface state density (N-SS) is determined from the I-V measurements by taking into account the bias dependence of the effective barrier height. Further, the interface state density N-SS as determined by Terman's method is found to be 2.14x10(12) cm(-2) eV(-1) for the Ru/Ni/n-GaN diode. Results show that the interface state density and series resistance has a significant effect on the electrical characteristics of studied diode.
