摘要
An important dispersion in the Rsheet measurement of AlGaN/GaN wafers was found on different samples, with or without SiN passivation. The dispersion is due to a drift of the Rsheet appearing when the sample is placed in the dark. This drift is different for each sample and it is caused by a trapping mechanism. A constant measurement of the Rsheet can be obtained under illumination. Thus, two parameters deserve measurement for an efficient screening of a technology: Rsheet under light and Delta Rsheet in obscurity. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
