Abstract

In this study, it is aimed to produce Au/n-Si/Ti, Cu/n-Si/Ti and AuCu/n-Si/Ti Schottky diodes and to calculate the diode parameters such as ideality factor, barrier height and series resistance by using time-dependent current–voltage (I-V) measurements. First, pure Ti metal was evaporated on the matt surface of the n-Si semiconductors and annealed at 420 ͦ C in nitrogen atmosphere. Secondly, Au and Cu metals and AuCu alloy were evaporated on the other surface of n-Si semiconductors. So, Au/n-Si/Ti, Cu/n-Si/Ti and AuCu/n-Si/Ti Schottky diodes were obtained. Finally, I-V measurements of the Schottky diodes were taken at specified time intervals (immediately,1, 7, 15, 30, 90, 180 and 365 days) and time-dependent diode parameters were calculated using the Thermionic Emission, Cheung and Norde methods.
