Abstract
The authors ivestigate the Schottky barrier heights of Ti films deposi ted on n-type GaN. The effective barrier height Phi(b0) is measured by current-voltage measurements, against temperature. An increasing barr ier height Phi(b0) from similar to 200meV (as-deposited) to 250meV aft er annealing at temperatures as low as 60 degrees C is observed. After annealing at 230 degrees C and above, a stable Phi(b0) of 450meV is m easured. The increase in Phi(b0) is not due to any macroscopic interfa cial reaction.
