Effect of post-deposition annealing on the interface electronic structures of Al2O3-Capped GaN and GaN/AlGaN/GaN heterostructure by Duan, Tian Li, Pan, Ji Sheng, Ang, Diing Shenp

“…The interface electronic structures of GaN and GaN/AlGaN/GaN samples, capped with atomic-layer-deposited Al2O3 and subjected to varying post-deposition annealing (PDA) temperatures, are investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Hall-effect measurement. XPS study shows a decrease in the Ga 3d and N 1s core level binding energy after a high-temperature PDA, implying a decrease of the interface defect density and the associated positive trapped-charge. …”
