Development of Reliable GaN-based Vertical Power Devices

Abstract

Abstract: Development of Reliable GaN-based Vertical Power Devices GaN-Schottky-contact interfaces using different metals will be investigated utilizing advanced transmission electron microscopy (TEM) including in-situ TEM. Structural and chemical analysis will be performed on the epilayers, fresh and stressed devices—both electrically and thermally. Results will be correlated to their optical and electrical properties. This work will provide essential knowledge for the realization of a stable GaN-Schottky interface that can withstand specific high-current operation at elevated temperatures.
