Abstract :
The authors investigate the annealing effects on the interfacial properties of gallium oxide (Ga2O3) grown on gallium nitride (GaN) by the photo-enhanced wet oxidation technique. The depth profile resolved XPS analysis indicates an interfacial layer as thin as 20nm can be maintained at the Ga2O3/GaN interface when subject to a rapid thermal annealing in an oxygen ambient at 800°C. The authors I-V and C-V analysis on the MOS device reveals a low interfacial density of state ∼5×1010 cm-2eV-1 and high breakdown field above 3MV/cm. These results suggest the photo-grown Ga2O3 with post O2 annealing is suitable for power device application.
