Examination of characteristic parameters of Zn/n-Si junction depending on electron radiation applied at different doses

In this work, we have studied the electrical characteristics of Zn/n-Si/Au-Sb Schottky diodes before and after different doses (25, 50 and 75 Gray) of electron-irradiation at room temperature. The ohmic contact has been made on n-Si crystal with Au-Sb alloy. The rectifier contact was sputtered Zinc metal on n-Si by using DC magnetron sputtering. The I-V measurements of these diodes performed by the use of a KEITLEY 487 Picoammeter/Voltage Source and the C-V measurements were performed with HP 4192A (50- 13 MHz) LF Impedance Analyzer at room temperature and in dark. Experimental results showed that the values of the ideality factor obtained from I to V measurements increased and the values of the barrier height obtained from I to V and C-V measurements decreased after electron-irradiation.
