Journal ArticleDOI
New Dielectrics for Gate Oxides and Surface Passivation on GaN
Brent P. Gila,G. T. Thaler,A. H. Onstine,M. Hlad,A. Gerger,Andrew M. Herrero,K. K. Allums,D. Stodilka,Soohwan Jang,B. S. Kang,Timothy J. Anderson,C. R. Abernathy,Fan Ren,Stephen J. Pearton +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report the nitride surface preparation and growth of these crystalline oxide dielectrics, efforts to improve the oxide/nitride interface properties by reducing the lattice mismatch and accelerated aging effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Band offsets in the Sc2O3∕GaN heterojunction system
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the energy discontinuity in the valence band (ΔEv) of Sc2O3∕GaN heterostructures using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of Sm2O3/GaAs heterojunction band offsets by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the energy discontinuity in the valence band (ΔEV) of Sm2O3∕GaAs heterostructures in which the Sm 2O3 was grown by rf plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy on top of GaAs substrates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Environmental stability of candidate dielectrics for GaN-based device applications
Andrew M. Herrero,Brent P. Gila,A. Gerger,Andrew G. Scheuermann,Ryan Davies,Cammy R. Abernathy,Stephen J. Pearton,Fan Ren +7 more
TL;DR: The thermal and chemical stability of potential dielectrics for GaN-based devices in a GaN metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) environment is investigated, and their suitability for use as a gate dielectric and as a regrowth mask for the selective area growth of GaN is discussed in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interfacial differences in enhanced schottky barrier height Au/n-GaAs diodes deposited at 77 K
Andrew M. Herrero,A. Gerger,Brent P. Gila,Stephen J. Pearton,Hung-Ta Wang,Soohwan Jang,Timothy J. Anderson,J.J. Chen,B. S. Kang,Fan Ren,Hongen Shen,Jeffrey R. LaRoche,Kurt V. Smith +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the use of cryogenic temperatures (∼77 K) during Au Schottky contact deposition onto n-GaAs produces an increase in barrier height from 0.73 eV for room temperature diodes to 0.82 eV.
