研究目的
To increase the dielectric constant of (Ca3Co4Ga0.001Ox) interlayer doped with 2% GC and examine the electrical and dielectric properties of Au/n-Si structures with this interlayer for various frequencies and applied bias voltages.
研究成果
The 2% GC-doped (Ca3Co4Ga0.001Ox) interlayer significantly increases the dielectric constant (approximately 34, nine times higher than SiO2), reduces interface states and series resistance, and enhances capacitance for energy storage applications. The electrical and dielectric properties are highly dependent on frequency and voltage, with contributions from interface states and polarization mechanisms. This interlayer can replace traditional SiO2 in metal–semiconductor structures for improved performance.
研究不足
The study is limited to room temperature measurements and a frequency range of 5–500 kHz. The effects of temperature variations and higher frequencies are not explored. The interlayer thickness and doping concentration may have optimization limits, and the analysis assumes certain ideal conditions that might not hold in all practical applications.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved fabricating Au/n-Si metal–semiconductor structures with a 2% graphene cobalt-doped (Ca3Co4Ga0.001Ox) interlayer. Electrical and dielectric properties were analyzed using capacitance/conductance–voltage (C/G–V) measurements in the frequency range of 5–500 kHz at room temperature. Methods included the low–high-frequency capacitance method for interface states (Nss) extraction and the Nicollian–Brews method for resistance (Ri) extraction. Complex dielectric constant, electric modulus, and ac conductivity were calculated from C and G data.
