Demonstration of GaN-based metal–insulator–semiconductor junction by hydrogen plasma treatment

We demonstrate a nickel/insulating-GaN (i-GaN)/p-type GaN junction and investigate its electrical properties. The i-GaN is formed by exposure to a low-power hydrogen plasma to passivate the p-GaN layer. Cathodoluminescence spectroscopy of the i-GaN is used to understand the passivation effect of the...

Zusammenfassung:We demonstrate a nickel/insulating-GaN (i-GaN)/p-type GaN junction and investigate its electrical properties. The i-GaN is formed by exposure to a low-power hydrogen plasma to passivate the p-GaN layer. Cathodoluminescence spectroscopy of the i-GaN is used to understand the passivation effect of the hydrogen plasma on p-GaN. The junction shows very low leakage (
