Hall Effect Measurement System for Characterization of Doped Single Crystal Diamond

Abstract

A temperature dependent Hall Effect measurement system with software based data acquisition and control was built and tested. Transport measurements are shown for boron-doped single crystal diamond (SCD) films deposited in a microwave plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition (MPCVD) reactor. The influence of Ohmic contacts and temperature control accuracy are studied. For a temperature range of 300K-700K IV curves, Hall mobilities and carrier concentrations are presented.
