Abstract

Schottky diodes with Ni/Au contact to the side of the two dimensional channel in GaN/AlGaN system were fabricated and studied. This kind of lateral heterodimensional diodes demonstrated the ideality factor n = 1.2–1.25 and apparent barrier height φb = (0.59–0.63) eV. The noise measurements within the frequencies range from 1 Hz to 50 kHz showed that the diodes demonstrated the superposition of 1/f and generation recombination noise. In spite of extremely small area of lateral Schottky diodes, the amplitude of noise was similar or even smaller than that for AlGaN and GaN Schottky diodes with the regular contact. This makes GaN-based lateral Schottky diodes to be very promising devices for RF and terahertz applications.
