Abstract :
The electrical properties of GaAs/GaAs junctions fabricated by using surface-activated bonding (SAB) were investigated. We extracted the potential barrier heights at 300-°C-annealed GaAs/GaAs interfaces from their current-voltage characteristics measured at varied ambient temperatures and estimated the energy of charge neutral level ECNL and the density of interface states Dit.
