摘要
Low dislocation density and low-resistance GaN wafers are in high demand for improving the performance of vertical GaN power devices. Recently, GaN wafers with the dislocation density of 8.8 x 10(4) cm(-2)and the resistivity of 7.8 x 10(-4)omega cm, were fabricated using oxide vapor phase epitaxy (OVPE). In this study, GaN p-n diodes on GaN wafers prepared by the OVPE method were evaluated for verifying their suitability as vertical GaN power devices. An extremely low-differential specific on-resistance of 0.08 m omega cm(2)and a high breakdown voltage of 1.8 kV were obtained from forward and reverseI-Vmeasurements.
