摘要
The effect of fluorine-plasma (F-plasma) treatment on current-voltage and electroluminescence (EL) characteristics of Ni/Au-AlGaN/GaN Schottky diode were investigated. It was found that the EL spectrum was dominated by the GaN near bandedge emissions with a rather small turn on current for EL emission. We propose that the F-related deep centers induced by the F-plasma treatment assist the hole injection processes through hopping conduction.
