Abstract

β � Ga 2 O 3 based lateral Schottky barrier diodes are fabricated using Ni/Au as Schottky contact and Ti/Au as Ohmic contact. The Sn-doped β � Ga 2 O 3 sample is grown by the optical float-zone technique. The effect of trenches, which are used for mesa isolation, on breakdown voltage is investigated. The device shows near-ideal characteristics in terms of built-in potential. The parasitic series and shunt resistances are extracted, and their dependency on temperature is established. Modeling of temperature-dependent reverse leakage current is demonstrated using the thermionic emission model, Poole-Frenkel emission model, and Fowler-Nordheim tunneling mechanism. The procedure to extract relevant parameters is explained in terms of bias and temperature dependency. The combined model shows excellent agreement with experimental data over a wide range of bias and temperature. The maximum electric field of 2.3 MV cm�1 is achieved. © 2024 IOP Publishing Ltd.
