Schottky barrier diodes of Au-n-Al0.14Ga0.86N grown by Organometallic
Vapor Phase Epitaxy were obtained and characterized between 77 K and 3
73 K. Under forward bias the value of the ideality parameter n=1.41 an
d the threshold voltage is 0.75 V. The reverse bias leak current is be
low 10(-10)A. on a reverse bias of 10 V. The barrier height (Phi(B)) w
as determined to be (1.17+/-0.03)eV and (1.3+/-0.05) eV by the current
-voltage and the capacitance-voltage measurement respectively.
