Origin of Soft Breakdown in Thin-Barrier AlGaN/GaN SBD With C-Doped GaN Buffer

Hao Wu et al.

Summary: In this study, we investigated the soft breakdown (BD) behavior in thin-barrier (TB) AlGaN/GaN Schottky barrier diode (SBD) with carbon-doped GaN buffer. The soft BD behavior is a result of multiple mechanisms coupling together. In the off-state, ionized carbon (C) acceptors cause electric field (E-field) crowding at the cathode and induce impact ionization. The holes generated by impact ionization compensate for the ionized C acceptors, suppressing E-field crowding and preventing further avalanche BD. Residual holes flow to and accumulate under the anode, leading to a continuous increase in the Schottky E-field and Schottky leakage, eventually causing the soft BD. Schottky leakage is highly sensitive to the Schottky E-field in the TB structure due to the tunneling effect, resulting in an abnormally high leakage rise rate during soft BD.

Effect of Anode Material on the Sensitivity of GaN Schottky Barrier Diode Temperature Sensor

Liuan Li et al.

Summary: In this study, GaN Schottky barrier diode (SBD) temperature sensors with TiN, Ni, and NiN anodes were fabricated to investigate the impact of anode material and inhomogeneous interface on sensitivity. The experimental results revealed that TiN and NiN anodes suppress inhomogeneity, while Ni anode exhibits higher sensitivity.

Vertical GaN-Based Temperature Sensor by Using TiN Anode Schottky Barrier Diode

Liuan Li et al.

Summary: The vertical GaN Schottky barrier diode, fabricated as a temperature sensor using a thermally stable TiN anode, displays a zero-temperature coefficient bias point and a linear decrease in forward voltage with increasing temperature in the sub-threshold region. Additionally, the leakage current in the reversely biased region shows temperature-dependent behavior with a sensitivity of approximately 19.7 mA/K regardless of the bias. These results can be explained by the thermionic emission model.

Dual Current and Voltage Sensitivity Temperature Sensor Based on Lateral p-GaN/AlGaN/GaN Hybrid Anode Diode

Xing Wei et al.

Summary: In this study, a p-GaN/AlGaN/GaN hybrid anode diode (HAD) temperature sensor was fabricated using hydrogen plasma treatment, with a zero-temperature coefficient (ZTC) of about 0.7 V. The sensor demonstrated a linear decrease in anode voltage (V-A) with increasing temperature in the forward region, showing sensitivities ranging from 1.64 mV/K to 0.69 mV/K. Additionally, the leakage current at reverse bias also exhibited a temperature-dependent behavior with sensitivities ranging from 16.76 mA/K to 27.94 mA/K. The experimental results were well explained by the two-dimensional variable range hopping model.

Recessed Anode AlGaN/GaN Schottky Barrier Diode for Temperature Sensor Application

Taofei Pu et al.

Summary: An AlGaN/GaN Schottky barrier diode (SBD) temperature sensor with a low turn-on voltage was fabricated using a recessed anode structure. This sensor demonstrates good rectification performance and relatively low turn-on voltage in a broad temperature range. The temperature-dependent forward voltage shows great linearity with a sensitivity of about 1.0 mV/K, making it suitable for temperature sensor applications.
