Abstract

In this paper, I have fabricated and measured the gallium nitride(GaN) based Schottky diodes, and have carried out analyses of degradation of Schottky barrier characteristics. To improve of degraded Schottky barrier characteristics, I have carried out several experiments such as N$_2$ plasma exposure, annealing in N$_2$ ambient and annealing after N$_2$ plasma exposure. In the results of these experiments, I have achieved that only annealing in N$_2$ ambient is enough to improve the Schottky barrier characteristics, are temperature of 700$\^{C}$ and time of 90 sec in N$_2$ ambient furnace. for the analysis of these experiments, I have carried out the measurement of electric characteristics and quantitative analysis of etching damage using AES(Aguger Electron Spectroscopy).
