摘要: In this work, a dislocation-related tunneling leakage current model is developed to explain the temperature-dependent reverse current-voltage (I-V-T) characteristics of a Schottky barrier diode fabricated on free-standing GaN substrate for reverse-bias voltages up to -150 V. The model suggests that the reverse leakage current is dominated by the direct tunneling of electrons from Schottky contact metal into a continuum of states associated with conductive dislocations in GaN epilayer. A reverse leakage current ideality factor, which originates from the scattering effect at metal/GaN interface, is introduced into the model. Good agreement between the experimental data and the simulated I-V curves is obtained.
