Interface states and Schottky barrier formation at metal/GaAs junctions
We report results of x-ray photoemission and cathodoluminescence spectroscopies studies of interface formation at metal-GaAs junctions. The results are interpreted by using a microscopic model of metal-semiconductor interfaces. Our low-temperature measurements and analyses show the validity of Schottky'S phenomenological description, thereby suggesting that metalinduced gap states and native de...
متن کاملOrientation-dependent chemistry and Schottky-barrier formation at metal-GaAs interfaces.
Soft-x-ray photoemission spectroscopy of metals deposited on GaAs demonstrates that minor misorientations of the (100) surface produce major deviations from Schottky-like behavior via increased chemical interactions. The degree of chemical activity correlates with the density of dangling bonds at the [110], [111]A,and [111]8steps, producing deep levels with acceptor character which dramatically...
متن کاملHigh-frequency capability of Schottky-barrier carbon nanotube FETs
The high-frequency capability of carbon nanotube field-effect transistors is investigated by simulating the small-signal performance of a device with negative-barrier Schottky contacts for the source and drain, and with a small, ungated region of nanotube between the end contacts and the edge of the wrap-around gate electrode. The overall structure is shown to exhibit resonant behaviour, which ...
متن کاملOptimization of Schottky barrier carbon nanotube field effect transistors
Carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNTFETs) have been studied in recent years as a potential alternative to CMOS devices, because of the capability of ballistic transport. CNTFETs can be fabricated with Ohmic or Schottky type contacts. We focus here on Schottky barrier CNTFETs which operate by modulating the transmission coefficient of carriers through the Schottky barriers at the interf...
متن کاملModeling of carbon nanotube Schottky barrier modulation under oxidizing conditions
A model is proposed for the previously reported lower Schottky barrier FBh for hole transport in air than in vacuum at a junction between the metallic electrode and semiconducting carbon nanotube ~CNT!. We consider the electrostatics in a transition region between the electrode and CNT in the presence or absence of oxygen molecules ~air or vacuum!, where an appreciable potential drop occurs. Th...
