The band offsets and Schottky barriers are first determined by aligning the vacuum level, defined relative to valence band maximum and screened by optical dielectric constant of semiconductors, on both sides of heterojunction at zero temperature and standard pressure. The temperature, strain and pressure effects on band offsets and Schottky barriers are then obtained using the two statistical thermodynamic postulates: (i) the free electrons and holes are electrically charged weakly interacting quasichemical particles and (ii) the electron-hole pairs are generated by the charge transfer from bonding (valencelike) states to antibonding (conduction-like) states. Excellent agreement is obtained Between the model predictions and experiment for band offsets at interfaces between AlAs and GaAs and between HgTe and CdTe, as well as other heterojunctions and Schottky barriers.","PeriodicalId":406922,"journal":{"name":"1998 International Semiconductor Conference.

Besides geometrical parameters, the ON-resistance of low-voltage VDMOS devices is mainly determined by the threshold voltage and carrier mobility values. For that reason, our theoretical considerations involve effects of dopant concentration and temperature changes on both the threshold voltage and carrier mobility behavior. Theoretical predictions for devices with channel dopant concentration in the range from 10/sup 16/ cm/sup -3/ to 10/sup 17/ cm/sup -3/ are compared with experimental measurements at temperatures between 300 K and 473 K.","PeriodicalId":406922,"journal":{"name":"1998 International Semiconductor Conference.

For gold diffused junctions, generation-recombination centers lead to a dominance of the bulk leakage current component both at reverse and low forward bias voltage but a minor surface component still controls the junction blocking capability. For electron irradiated junctions, the surface component of reverse current may be the primary component up to a junction temperature of 100-150/spl deg/C. When the density of bulk generation-recombination centers is low, their influence on the reverse I-V characteristic is negligible from the room temperature up to above 200/spl deg/C.","PeriodicalId":406922,"journal":{"name":"1998 International Semiconductor Conference.
