In this case, the electric field distribution, /spl xi/(x), is not screened by the ion concentration in the SCR but it is defined only by the uniformity of the resistance value distribution in the structure. The experimental results on measurements of the electrophysical characteristics and the electric field distribution are presented. It is shown that in these structures the electric field distribution is uniform through the whole high-resistive layer thickness. The possibility of the achievement of high values of charge collection efficiency of gamma-radiation is demonstrated.","PeriodicalId":109480,"journal":{"name":"12th International Conference on Semiconducting and Insulating Materials, 2002.

(Pt)-Schottky diodes as well as gas sensitive AlGaN/GaN heterostructure field effect transistors are characterized with respect to their temperature dependent sensitivity towards hydrogen and other oxidizing or reducing gases. Further investigation of the transient behaviour of gas sensitive (Pt)-GaN Schottky contacts reveals that up to device temperatures of 150/spl deg/C hydrogen is stored on electronically active sites of the sensor system. We found hydrogen accumulation at the Pt/GaN interface accompanied by an accumulation of oxygen by elastic recoil detection analysis. GaN-based gas sensitive devices are demonstrated to combine high performance with a simple planar device processing technology.","PeriodicalId":109480,"journal":{"name":"12th International Conference on Semiconducting and Insulating Materials, 2002.
