W/n-GaN Schottky diodes were irradiated with $^{60}Co\;{\gamma}-rays$ to doses up to 315Mrad. The barrier height obtained from current-voltage (I-V) measurements showed minimal change from its estimated initial value of ${\sim}0.4eV$ over this dose range, though both forward and reverse I-V characteristics show evidence of defect center introduction at doses as low as 150 Mrad. Post irradiation annealing at $500^{\circ}C$ increased the reverse leakage current, suggesting migration and complexing of defects. The W/GaN interface is stable to high dose of ${\gamma}-rays$, but Au/Ti overlayers employed for reducing contact sheet resistance suffer from adhesion problems at the highest doses.

In this paper, the current-voltage characteristics of a 4H-SiC MESFET is simulated by using the Atlas Simulation tool. we are able to use the simulator to extract more information about the new material 4H-SiC, including the mobility, velocity-field Curve and the Schottky barrier height. We have enabled and used the new simulator to investigate breakdown Voltage and thus predict operation limitations of 4H-SiC device. Modeling results indicate that the Breakdown Voltage is 197 V and Current is 100 mA

Amorphous silicon is a kind of optical to electric conversion material with current or voltage type after generating a numerous free electron and hole when it is injected by light. It is very effective technology to make schottky diode by bonding thin film to use optical diode. In this paper, we have fabricated optical diode device by forming chrome silicide film through thermal processing with thin film($100{\AA}$) having optimal amorphous silicon. The optimal condition is that we make a thin film by using PECVD(Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition) to improve reliability and characteristics of optical diode. We have obtained high quality diode by using chrome silicide optical diode from dark current and optical current measurement compared to previous method. It makes a simple process and improves a good reliability.

The effect of surface plasmon on ZTO thin films was investigated. The phenomenon of depletion occurring in the interface of the ZTO thin film created a potential barrier and the dielectric layer of the depletion formed a non-mass particle called plasmon. ZTO thin film represents n-type semiconductor features, and surface current by plasma has been able to obtain the effect of improving electrical efficiency as a result of high current at positive voltage and low current at negative voltage. It can be seen that the reduction of electric charge due to recombination of electronic hole pairs by heat treatment of compound semiconductors induces higher surface current in semiconductor devices.

In this paper, GaN-SBD devices with excellent breakdown voltage and frequency characteristics for use in high-power microwave wireless power transmission has been modeled for PSpice circuit simulation. The RF-DC conversion circuits were simulated and compared with a commercial Si-SBD device. Although the modeled GaN-SBD devices had lower RF-DC conversion efficiency compared to Si-SBD at 2.4 and 5.8 GHz, it was confirmed through PSpice circuit simulations that they can be used sufficiently according to the required application circuit in a high power situation.

The theoretical equations for J-V characteristics in an OLED was derived according to the internal carrier emission equation based on a diffusion model at Schottky barrier contact and the mobility equation based on the Pool-Frenkel model. The J-V characteristics of OLED are presented using a behavioral model for analog systems (Verilog-A language), and the accuracy of this model was verified by comparing with the device simulation results.

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.

The electrical properties of Au/n-type Ge Schottky contacts with different contact areas were investigated using current-voltage (I-V) measurements. Analyses of the reverse bias current characteristics showed that the Poole-Frenkel effect became strong with decreasing contact area. The contribution of the perimeter current density to the total current density was found to increase with increasing reverse bias voltage. Fitting of the forward bias I-V characteristics by considering various transport models revealed that the tunneling current is dominant in the low forward bias region. The contributions of both the thermionic emission (TE) and the generation-recombination (GR) currents to the total current were similar regardless of the contact area, indicating that these currents mainly flow through the bulk region. In contrast, the contribution of the tunneling current to the total current increased with decreasing contact area. The largest $E_{00}$ value (related to tunneling probability) for the smallest contact area was associated with higher tunneling effect.

The terahertz (THz) region lies in between the millimeter and infrared spectral bands. A THz wave has the characteristics of non-invasiveness and non-ionization due to low photon energies, while having high penetrability in dielectrics. In addition, since the resonance frequencies of various molecules are included in the THz band, research on the application of spectral analysis and non-destructive testing has been widely studied. Towards this end, the research and development of THz detectors has become increasingly important in order to assess their applications in different areas such as astronomy, security, industrial non-destructive evaluations, biological applications, and wireless communications. In this report, we summarize the operating principles, characteristics, and utilization of various broadband technologies in THz detection devices. Further, we introduce the development status of our Schottky barrier diode technology as one of the broadband THz detectors that can be easily adopted as direct detectors in many fields of applications.

The current-voltage characteristics of the sandwich system at different annealing temperatures and different bias voltages have been studied. In order to prepare the Al/V$O_X$/Al sandwich devices structure, thin films of vanadium oxide(V$O_X$) was deposited by r.f. magnetron sputtering from $V_2$$O_5$ target in 10% gas mixture of argon and oxygen, and annealed during lhour at different temperatures in vacuum. Crystall structure, surface morphology, and thickness of films were characterized through XRD, SEM and I-V characteristics were measured by electrometer. The films prepared below 20$0^{\circ}C$ were amorphous, and those prepared above 300 $^{\circ}C$were polycrystalline. At low fields electron injected to conduction band of vanadium oxide and formed space charge, current was limited by trap. Conduction mechanism at mid fields due to Schottky emission, while at high fields it changed to Fowler-Nordheim tunneling effects.
