摘要: High barrier Yb/p‐InP metal‐insulator‐semiconductor (MIS) and metal‐semiconductor (MS) junctions were fabricated by evaporation of Yb on InP:Zn substrates. The capacitance‐voltage (C‐V) current‐voltage (I‐V) characteristics these devices measured over a wide range temperatures. From the room‐temperature forward I‐V data, values 1.06 1.30 for ideality factor (n) obtained MIS MS diodes, respectively. higher value n was attributed to an order magnitude density interface states in junction than diodes. I‐V/T data temperature 190–400 K, indicated that current transport controlled thermionic‐field emission (TFE) mechanism. analysis reverse saturation I0 terms TFE model provided 1.07±0.03 V zero bias, height (φ0) which close agreement with φ0=1.03±0.04 V, ...
