Item Open Access On the profile of frequency and voltage dependent interface states and series resistance in (Ni/Au)/Al0.22Ga0.78N/AlN/GaN heterostructures by using current-voltage (I-V) and admittance spectroscopy methods(Elsevier, 2011-06-08) Demirezen, S.; Altindal, S.; Özelik, S.; Özbay, EkmelIn order to explain the experimental effect of interface states (N ss) and series resistance (Rs) of device on the non-ideal electrical characteristics, current-voltage (I-V), capacitance-voltage (C-V) and conductance-voltage (G/ω-V) characteristics of (Ni/Au)/Al 0.22Ga0.78N/AlN/GaN heterostructures were investigated at room temperature. Admittance measurements (C-V and G/ω-V) were carried out in frequency and bias voltage ranges of 2 kHz-2 MHz and (-5 V)-(+5 V), respectively. The voltage dependent Rs profile was determined from the I-V data. The increasing capacitance behavior with the decreasing frequency at low frequencies is a proof of the presence of interface states at metal/semiconductor (M/S) interface. At various bias voltages, the ac electrical conductivity (σac) is independent from frequencies up to 100 kHz, and above this frequency value it increases with the increasing frequency for each bias voltage. In addition, the high-frequency capacitance (C m) and conductance (Gm/ω) values measured under forward and reverse bias were corrected to minimize the effects of series resistance. The results indicate that the interfacial polarization can more easily occur at low frequencies. The distribution of Nss and R s is confirmed to have significant effect on non-ideal I-V, C-V and G/ω-V characteristics of (Ni/Au)/Al0.22Ga0.78N/AlN/ GaN heterostructures.Item Open Access On the profile of frequency dependent dielectric properties of (Ni/Au)/GaN/Al0.3Ga0.7N heterostructures(Elsevier, 2010-10-12) Tekeli, Z.; Gökçen, M.; Altindal, Ş.; Özçelik, S.; Özbay, EkmelThe voltage (V) and frequency (f) dependence of dielectric characteristics such as dielectric constant (ε′), dielectric loss (ε″), dielectric loss tangent (tan δ) and real and imaginary part of electrical modulus (Μ′ and M″) of the (Ni/Au)/GaN/Al0.3Ga 0.7N heterostructures have been investigated by using experimental admittance spectroscopy (capacitance-voltage (C-V) and conductance-voltage (G/w-V)) measurements at room temperature. Experimental results show that the values of the ε′, ε″, tan δ and the real and imaginary parts of the electric modulus (M′ and M″) obtained from the C and G/w measurements were found to be strong function of frequency and applied bias voltage especially in depletion region at low frequencies. These changes in dielectric parameters can be attributed to the interfacial GaN cap layer, interface polarization and a continuous density distribution of interface states and their relaxation time at metal/semiconductor interface. While the values of the ε ′ decrease with increasing frequencies, tan δ,M′ and M″ increase with the increasing frequency. Also, the dielectric loss (ε″) have a local maximum at about frequency of 100 kHz. It can be concluded that the interface polarization can occur more easily at low frequencies with the number of interface states located at the metal/semiconductor interface.
