摘要
Schottky barrier height modification (BHM) resulting from 0.5 keV He-ion bombardment of n- and p-GaAs (doping similar to 10(16) cm(-3)) is investigated for doses between 5x10(10) and 5x10(14) cm(-2). Current-voltage measurements reveal a decrease (0.95-0.63 eV) and an increase (0.63-0.70) in barrier height, for n- and p-GaAs, respectively, for the dose above. Electronic properties of defects introduced are investigated through DLTS, current-voltage (I-V) and capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements. Furthermore, we compare defects from 0.5 keV and MeV He-ion irradiation in both n-and p-GaAs. Annealing n-GaAs reveal a correlation between the BHM and the density of He-ion induced defects.
