Numerical simulation analysis of carbon defects in the buffer on vertical leakage and breakdown of GaN on silicon epitaxial layers

Abstract Carbon doping in GaN-on-Silicon (Si) epitaxial layers is an essential way to reduce leakage current and improve breakdown voltage. However, complicated occupy forms caused by carbon lead to hard analysis leakage/breakdown mechanisms of GaN-on-Si epitaxial layers. In this paper, we demonstra...
