Fabrication and Characterization of the Silicon Vertical Hall Devices

The Silicon vertical Hall devices are fabricated using standard bipolar process and characterized in terms of the Hall voltage, sensitivities, and offset voltage. The Hall voltage and sensitivity of the devices showed good linearity with respect to the magnetic flux density and reverse supply voltage Vr. The sensitivity of device with P$^{+}$ isolation dam has been increased up to 1.2 times compared to that of device without the dam. With the condition of V$_{r}$=-5.0[V], B=0.4[T] and I$_{sup}$=1.0[mA], the Hall voltage and sensitivity of the device with P$^{+}$ isolation dam were about 29[mV] and 74[V/AT], respectively. These vertical Hall devices can be used as the adjustable magnetic fields sensor.
