A shallow n+ layer of implanted phosphorus was used to lower the barrier height of PtSinSi schottky diodes. The reduction of barrier height of the forward turn-on voltages from 400mV to 180mV of the forward was followed by implantation of phosphorus at 35KeV with an ion dose of 8.0x10**12 atoms/cm\ulcornerand was activated at 925\ulcorner for 30min in dry O2. The test result showed that, as the ion-implanted dose increased, the forward turn-on voltage and reverse breakdown voltage were linearly decreased, but the saturation current and ideality factor(n) were linearly increased.

SiC(4H) 결정에 Ti을 열증착하여 Ti/SiC(4H) 쇼트키(Schottky) 장벽 다이오드를 만들었다. SiC(4H)의 주개농도(donor concentration)는 전기용량-전압(C-V) 측정으로부터 $2.0{\times}10^{15}{\textrm}{cm}^{-3}$이었으며, 내부전위(built-in potential)는 0.65 V이었다. 전류-전압(I-V) 특성으로 부터 다이오드의 이상계수(ideally factor)는 1.07이었으며, 역방향 항복전장(breakdown field)은 약 $1.7{\times}10^3V/{\textrm}{cm}$이었다. 상온에서 $140^{\circ}C$까지 온도변화에 따라 측정된 포화전류로 부터 구한 전위장벽(potential barrier)은 0.91 V이었는데, 이는 C-V 특성으로 부터 구한 전위장벽과 거의 같았다.

본 논문에서는 nickel/silicon carbide(Ni/SiC) 접합에 의한 Schottky 다이오드를 제작하고, 그 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. Ni/4H-SiC의 경우, 산화막 모서리 단락을 하였을 때 상온에서 973V의 역방향 항복전압이 측정되었으며 이는 모서리 단락되지 않은 Schottky 다이오드의 역방향 항복전압 430V에 비해 매우 높았다. Ni/6H-SiC Schottky 다이오드의 경우, 산화막으로 모서리 단락시켰을 때와 시키지 않았을 때의 역방향 항복전압은 각각, 920V와 160V 였다. 고온에서의 소자 특성도 매우 좋아서 Ni/4H-SiC Schottky 다이오드와 Ni/6H-SiC Schottky 다이오드 모두 300℃까지 전류 특성의 변화가 거의 없었으며 550℃에서도 양호한 정류 특성을 보였다. 상온에서의 Schottky barrier height와 이상인자(ideality factor) 및 specific on-resistance는 Ni/4H-SiC의 경우는 1.55eV, 1.3, 3.6×10/sup -2/Ω·㎠이었으며 Ni/6H-SiC Schottky 다이오드의 경우에 1.24eV, 1.2, 2.6×10/sup -2Ω·㎠/로 나타났다. 실험 결과 Ni/4H-SiC 및 Ni/6H-SiC Schottky 다이오드 모두 고온, 고전압 소자로서 우수한 특성을 나타냄이 입증되었다.

n-well Si(100) 영역에 $BF_{2}$를 이온주입 [에너지: 30KeV, 주입량 : $5\times10^{15}cm^{-2}$] 하고 Co($120\AA$)/Ti($40\AA$)이중막을 진공증착하여 RTA-silicidation을 통해 Co/Ti 이중막 실리사이드층을 갖는 p+ -n극저접합 다이오드를 제작하였다. 제작된 소자의 이상계수와 비접촉저항 및 누설전류는 각각 1.06, $1.2\times10^{-6}\Omega\cdot\textrm{cm}^2$, $8.6\muA/\textrm{cm}^2$(-3V)로 나타났으며 실리사이드층을 갖는 이미터 영역의 면저항은 약 $8\Omega\Box$로, 실리상이드/실리콘 계면에서 보론 농도는 약 $6\times10^{19}cm^{-3}$으로, 실리사이드 두께(~$500\AA$)를 포함한 접합깊이는 약 $0.14\mu{m}$로 형성되었다. 다이오드 제작에서 Co/Ti 이중막 실리사이드 층의 형성은 소자의 누설전류를 다소 증가시켰으나 이상계수의 개선과 이미터 영역의 면저항 및 비접촉저항의 감소를 가져왔다.

High temperature silicon carbide Schottky diode was fabricated with Au deposited on poly 3C-SiC thin film grown on p-type Si(100) using atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition. The charge transport mechanism of the diode was studied in the temperature range of 300 K to 550 K. The forward and reverse bias currents of the diode increase strongly with temperature and diode shows a non-ideal behavior due to the series resistance and the interface states associated with 3C-SiC. The charge transport mechanism is a temperature activated process, in which, the electrons passes over of the low barriers and in turn, diode has a large ideality factor. The charge transport mechanism of the diode was analyzed by a Gaussian distribution of the Schottky barrier heights due to the Schottky barrier inhomogeneities at the metal-semiconductor interface and the mean barrier height and zero-bias standard deviation values for the diode was found to be 1.82 eV and $s_0$=0.233 V, respectively. The interface state density of the diode was determined using conductance-frequency and it was of order of $9.18{\times}10^{10}eV^{-1}cm^{-2}$.

In this paper, we develop a 94-GHz single balanced mixer with low conversion loss using planar Schottky diodes on a GaAs substrate. The GaAs Schottky diode has a nanoscale anode with a T-shaped disk that can yield high cutoff frequency characteristics. The fabricated Schottky diode with an anode diameter of 500 nm has a series resistance of 21 Ω, an ideality factor of 1.32, a junction capacitance of 8.03 fF, and a cutoff frequency of 944 GHz. Based on this technology, a 94-GHz single balanced mixer was constructed. The fabricated mixer shows an average conversion loss of -7.58 dB at an RF frequency of 92.5 GHz to 95 GHz and an IF frequency of 500 MHz with an LO power of 7 dBm. The RF-to-LO isolation characteristics were greater than -32 dB. These values are considered to be attributed to superior Schottky diode characteristics.

4H-SiC Schottky rectifiers were exposed to pure Ar discharges in a planar coil Inductively Coupled Plasma system, as a function of source power, of chuck power and process pressure. The reverse breakdown voltage ($V_B$) decreased as a result of plasma exposure due to the creation of surface defects associated with the ion bombardment. The magnitude of the decrease was a function of both ion flux and ion energy. The forward turn-on voltage ($V_F$), on-state resistance ($R_{ON}$) and diode ideality factor (n) all increased after plasma exposure. The changes in all of the rectifier parameters were minimized at low power, high pressure plasma conditions.

We have fabricated n-p-n HBTs using 3-inchAlgaAs/GaAs hetero structure epi-wafers grown by MBE. DC and AC characteristics of HBT devices were measured and analyzed. For HBT epi-structure, Al composition of emitter was graded in the region between emitter cap and emitter. And base layer was designed with concentration of 1${\times}10^{19}/cm^{3}$ and thickness of 50nm, and Be was used as the p-type dopant. Principal processes for device fabrication consist of photolithography using i-line stepper, wet mesa etching, and lift-off of each ohmic metal. The PECVD SiN film was used as the inslator for the metal interconnection. HBT device with emitter size of 3${\times}10{\mu}m^{2}$ resulted in cut-off frequency of 35GHz, maximum oscillation frequency of 21GHz, and current gain of 60. The distribution of the ideality factor of collector and base current was very uniform, and the average values of off-set voltage and current was very uniform, and the average values of off-set voltage and current gain were 0.32V and 32 within a 3-inch wafer.

A modified silicon direct bonding method has been developed alloying an intimate contact between grooved and smooth mirror-polished oxide-free silicon wafers. A regular set of grooves was formed during preparation of heavily doped $p^+$-type grid network by oxide-masking und boron diffusion. Void-free bonded interfaces with filing of the grooves were observed by x-ray diffraction topography, infrared, optical. and scanning electron microscope techniques. The presence of regularly formed grooves in bending plane results in the substantial decrease of dislocation over large areas near the interface. Moreover two strongly misoriented waters could be successfully bonded by new technique. Diodes with bonded a pn-junction yielded a value of the ideality factor n about 1.5 and the uniform distribution of series resistance over the whole area of horded pn-structure. The suitability of the modified technique was confirmed by I - V characteristics of power diodes and reversly switched-on dynistor(RSD) with a working area about $12cm^2$. Both devices demonstrated breakdown voltages close to the calculation values.

Ga₂O₃/n-type 4H-SiC heterojunction diodes were fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering. The optical properties of Ga₂O₃ and electrical properties of diodes were investigated. I-V characteristics were compared with simulation data from the Atlas software. The band gap of Ga₂O₃ was changed from 5.01 eV to 4.88 eV through oxygen annealing. The doping concentration of Ga₂O₃ was extracted from C-V characteristics. The annealed oxygen exhibited twice higher doping concentration. The annealed diodes showed improved turn-on voltage (0.99 V) and lower leakage current (3 pA). Furthermore, the oxygen-annealed diodes exhibited a temperature cross-point when temperature increased, and its ideality factor was lower than that of as-grown diodes.
