Item Open Access Effect of film thickness on the electrical properties of AlN films prepared by plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015) Altuntas, H.; Ozgit Akgun, C.; Donmez, I.; Bıyıklı, NecmiIn this paper, AlN thin films with two different thicknesses, i.e., 7 and 47 nm, were deposited at 200 °C on p-type Si substrates by plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition using trimethylaluminum and ammonia. To investigate the electrical characteristics of these AlN films, MIS capacitor structures were fabricated and characterized using current-voltage and high-frequency (1 MHz) capacitance-voltage measurements. The results showed that the current transport mechanism under accumulation mode is strongly dependent on the applied electric field and thickness of the AlN film. Possible conduction mechanisms were analyzed, and the basic electrical parameters were extracted and compared for AlN thin films with different thicknesses. Compared with 7-nm-thick film, a 47-nm-thick AlN film showed a lower effective charge density and threshold voltage along with a higher dielectric constant.Item Open Access Electrical characterization of MS and MIS structures on AlGaN/AlN/GaN heterostructures(ELSEVIER, 2010) Arslan, E.; Bütün, S.; Şafak, Y.; Uslu, H.; Tascioglu I.; Altindal, S.; Özbay, EkmelThe forward and reverse bias I-V, C-V, and G/ω-V characteristics of (Ni/Au) Schottky barrier diodes (SBDs) on the Al 0.22Ga 0.78N/AlN/GaN high-electron-mobility-transistor (HEMTs) without and with SiN x insulator layer were measured at room temperature in order to investigate the effects of the insulator layer (SiN x) on the main electrical parameters such as the ideality factor (n), zero-bias barrier height ( B0), series resistance (R s), interface-state density (N ss). The energy density distribution profiles of the N ss were obtained from the forward bias I-V characteristics by taking into account the voltage dependence of the effective barrier height ( e) and ideality factor (n V) of devices. In addition, the N ss as a function of E c-E ss was determined from the low-high frequency capacitance methods. It was found that the values of N ss and R s in SBD HEMTs decreases with increasing insulator layer thickness.Item Open Access The substrate temperature dependent electrical properties of titanium dioxide thin films(2010) Yildiz, A.; Lisesivdin, S.B.; Kasap, M.; Mardare, D.Titanium dioxide thin films were obtained by a dc sputtering technique onto heated glass substrates. The relationship between the substrate temperature and the electrical properties of the films was investigated. Electrical resistivity measurements showed that three types of conduction channels contribute to conduction mechanism in the temperature range of 13-320 K. The temperature dependence of electrical resistivity between 150 and 320 K indicated that electrical conductioninthe films was controlled by potential barriers caused by depletion of carriers at grain boundaries. The conduction mechanism of the films was shifted from grain boundary scattering dominated band conduction to the nearest neighbor hopping conduction at temperatures between 55 and 150 K. Below 55 K, the temperature dependence of electrical resistivity shows variable range hopping conduction. The correlation between the substrate temperature and resistivity behaviorisdiscussed by analyzing the physical plausibility of the hopping parameters and material properties derived by applying different conduction models. With these analyses, various electrical parameters of the present samples such as barrier height, donor concentration, density of states at the Fermi level, acceptor concentration and compensation ratio were determined. Their values as a function of substrate temperature were compared. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2009.
