A Pd-SiC Schottky diode for detection of hydrogen gas operating at high temperature was explored. Hydrogen-sensing behaviors of Pd-SiC Schottky diode were analyzed as a function of hydrogen concentration and temperature by I-V and ${\Delta}I$-t methods under steady-state and transient conditions. The effect of hydrogen adsorption on the barrier height was investigated. Analysis of the steady-state kinetics using I-V method confirmed that the atomistic hydrogen adsorption process is responsible for the barrier height change in the diode.

Ti/sic(4H) Schottky barrier diodes were fabricated. The donor concentration and the built-in potential obtained by capacitance-voltage(C-V) measurement was about $2.0{\times}10^{15}{\textrm}{cm}^{-3}$ and 0.65 V, respectively. The ideality factor of 1.07 was obtained from the slope of current-voltage(I-V) characteristics at low current density. The breakdown field under the reverse bias voltage was about $1.7{\times}10^3V/{\textrm}{cm}$ and was very high. The barrier height of Ti for SiC(4H) was 0.91 V, which was determined by the analysis of the saturation current-temperature and the C-V characteristics.

We have fabricated GaN Schottky barrier diode (SBD) for high-voltage applications on Si substrate. The leakage current and the electrical characteristics of GaN SBD are investigated by annealing metal-semiconductor junctions. Ohmic junctions of Ti/Al/Mo/Au and Schottky junctions of Ni/Au are used in the fabrication. A test structure is proposed to measured buffer leakage current through a mesa structure. When annealing temperature is increased from $700^{\circ}C$ to $800^{\circ}C$, measured buffer leakage current is also increased from 87 nA to 780 nA at the width of 100 ${\mu}m$. The diffusion of Au, Ti, Mo, O into GaN buffer layer increases the leakage current and that is verified by Auger electron spectroscopy. Experimental results show that the low leakage current and the high breakdown voltage of GaN SBD are achieved by annealing metal-semiconductor junctions.

낮은 에너지(60KeV) 비소 이온주입으로 고종도의 얇은 표면층을 형성시켜 Pt-nSi 쇼트키 다이오드의 유효 장벽높이를 감소시켰다. 역방향 특성을 크게 저하시키지 않고 순방향 임계전압을 400mV에서 200mV로 낮추는데 필요한 이온주입량은 얇은 산화막(215.angs.)이 존재하는 상태에서 비소 이온주입을 한 경우는 9.0*$10^{12}$$cm^{-2}$이고, 산화막이 없는 상태에서 이온주입한 경우는 5.1*$10^{12}$$cm^{-2}$이었다. 이온주입후 열처리 조건은 900.deg.C에서 30분간 N$_{2}$분위기에서 행하였으며 얇은 산화막을 통한 이온주입으로 다이오드의 역방향 특성을 개선하였다.

We fabricated a Si nano floating gate memory with Schottky barrier tunneling transistor structure. The device was consisted of Schottky barriers of Er-silicide at source/drain and Si nanoclusters in the gate stack formed by LPCVD-digital gas feeding method. Transistor operations due to the Schottky barrier tunneling were observed under small gate bias < 2V. The nonvolatile memory properties were investigated by measuring the threshold voltage shift along the gate bias voltage and time. We obtained the 10/50 mseconds for write/erase times and the memory window of $\sim5V$ under ${\pm}20\;V$ write/erase voltages. However, the memory window decreased to 0.4V after 104seconds, which was attributed to the Er-related defects in the tunneling oxide layer. Good write/erase endurance was maintained until $10^3$ write/erase times. However, the threshold voltages moved upward, and the memory window became small after more write/erase operations. Defects in the LPCVD control oxide were discussed for the endurance results. The experimental results point to the possibility of a Si nano floating gate memory with Schottky barrier tunneling transistor structure for Si nanoscale nonvolatile memory device.
