Zz. Ozturk et Ma. Ebeoglu, STUDY ON INTERFACE PROPERTIES OF GAAS AO/AL STRUCTURES USING THE THERMALLY STIMULATED CURRENT (TSC) METHOD/, Physica status solidi. a, Applied research, 138(2), 1993, pp. 631-638
Interface properties of GaAs/anodic oxide (AO)/Al structures with vari
ous anodic oxide films which are grown by using different electrolytes
under constant current conditions are studied. The C-U, I-U, and ther
mally stimulated current measurements for these devices are carried ou
t at various temperatures. Trap energy levels which are determined fro
m TSC measurements indicate that there are As(Ga) antisite and probabl
y As interstitial-type defects at the interface depending on the prepa
ration techniques.
