摘要
The temperature dependence of the electrical properties of beta-Ga(2)O(3) is analyzed from liquid helium to room temperature by Hall measurements. Below 100 K, the carrier motion takes place within the impurity conduction band and it shows a power-law dependence. An electrostructural coupling is ascertained. Thermal activation in the conduction band is observed above 100 K, with an activation energy E(a)=7 meV. Thermal conductivity is measured to 13 W m(-1) K(-1). Further, it is shown that Ti is a good Ohmic electrode for n-type beta-Ga(2)O(3) substrates. (C) 2008 American Institute of Physics.
