Abstract
We used the solution of the Poisson equation together with the drift and diffusion equations to simulate precisely the voltage dependence of the AlGaN/GaN capacitor structure. We demonstrate the influence of the structure parameters like doping concentrations of AlGaN, Schottky barrier height, and the thickness of the AlGaN layer on resulting C-V curve of the heterojunction capacitor. Also the capacitance of the structure in forward bias was simulated and the capacitance peak that sometimes occurs in the measurements was identified.
