Hydrogenation effects on electrical properties of n-type and undoped InGaP epi layers lattice matched to GaAs was investigated. It was found that the hydrogenation under a proper condition can be resulted in a Auh-InGaP Schottky diode with a good rectifying characteristics as well as an effective defect passivation. These improvement were thought to be resulted from the atomic hydrogen diffused into InCaP neutralized Si donor and passivated recombination centers near the surface.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
