摘要
A novel n-SiCN/p-SiCN homojunction was developed on Si Substrate for low cost and high temperature ultraviolet(UV) detecting applications. The current ratio of the junction under -5V bias, with and without irradiation of 254nm UV light are 1940 and 96.3, at room temperature and 175 degrees C, respectively. Compared to the reported UV detectors with material of 4H-SiCor beta-SiC, the developed n-SiCN/p-SiCN homojunction has better current ratio in both room and elevated temperature.
