Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 電機工程學系研究所 === 86 === Several kinds of dielectric growth techniques, i.e. sputtering of SiO2, PECVD SiNx, E-Gun evaporation of SiO2, photo-CVD SiO2, LPD SiO2/PECVD a-SiHx, had been applied to fabricate the InAs MOS capacitors. The capacitor (T34) which was processed by the chemical treatment H2SO4: H2O2 (9:1) etched for 2 minutes and (NH4)2Sx rinsed for 10 minutes had less interface states and fixed charges in the dielectric film than all the others. The p-type inversion layer was formed at the SiO2/InAs interface by applying negative gate bias. The Auger electron depth profiles also show that more stable interface was formed by this chemical treatment. The unpassivated InAs p-i-n diodes with various i-layer thicknesses had been fabricated and their temperature dependent I-V characteristics were measured. It is shown that the reverse currents of the diodes with 0.1, 0.5, 1 um i-layer thickness at — 0.5 V and 80 K are 4 x 10^-7, 2.7 x 10^-10, 5.5 x 10^-4 A, respectively. The R0A value of the diode with 0.5 um thick i-layer changes from 2.01 x 10^7 ohm*cm2 at 80 K to 0.070 ohm*cm2 at 300 K. The comparison of I-V characteristics between passivated and unpassivated p-i-n diodes had been made, and it is clear that the reverse current of the passivated diode with gate bias — 5 V is much smaller than that of the unpassivated one. Finally, the spectral response and specific detectivity of the unpassivated InAs p- i-n diode with 0.5 um thick i-layer were measured. The peak of the spectral response was related to the bandgap of InAs below 200 K. The specific detectivities of the unpassivated InAs p-i-n diode with 0.5 um thick i-layer are 1.80 x 10^10 cmHz1/2W-1 at 20 K and 6.23 x 10^9 cmHz1/2W-1 at 80 K, respectively.
