含有本征SiGe层的SiGe异质结双极晶体管集电结耗尽层宽度模型

本文分别建立了含有本征SiGe层的SiGe HBT(异质结双极晶体管)集电结耗尽层各区域的电势、电场分布模型,并在此基础上,建立了集电结耗尽层宽度和延迟时间模型,对该模型进行了模拟仿真,定量地分析了SiGe HBT物理、电学参数对集电结耗尽层宽度和延迟时间的影响,随着基区掺杂浓度和集电结反偏电压的提高,集电结耗尽层延迟时间也随之增大,而随着集电区掺杂浓度的提高和基区Ge组分增加,集电结耗尽层延迟时间随之减小. 关键词： SiGe HBT 集电结耗尽层 延迟时间     

Early effect modeling of silicon-on-insulator SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistors

Silicon germanium(SiGe) heterojunction bipolar transistor(HBT) on thin silicon-on-insulator(SOI) has recently been demonstrated and integrated into the latest SOI BiCMOS technology.The Early effect of the SOI SiGe HBT is analysed considering vertical and horizontal collector depletion,which is different from that of a bulk counterpart.A new compact formula of the Early voltage is presented and validated by an ISE TCAD simulation.The Early voltage shows a kink with the increase of the reverse base-collector bias.Large differences are observed between SOI devices and their bulk counterparts.The presented Early effect model can be employed for a fast evaluation of the Early voltage and is useful to the design,the simulation and the fabrication of high performance SOI SiGe devices and circuits.     

ZnO∶Al/p-Si的接触特性

利用射频磁控溅射制备了ZnO∶A l/p-S i接触,并对其进行C-V和I-V特性的77~350 K变温测量。并对未热退火和800℃热退火两种样品的测量结果进行了对比分析。结果发现,未经热退火和经过热退火处理的样品在C-V和I-V特性上有很大差别。解释了两种样品的C-V和I-V测量结果的不同。对于未退火的样品,由于界面处的大量界面态的屏蔽作用,使得ZnO∶A l/p-S i异质结的C-V曲线发生畸变。经800℃热退火,ZnO∶A l/p-S i异质结的C-V特性恢复正常,说明热退火已经消除了异质结中的界面态和缺陷态。研究表明ZnO∶A l/p-S i异质结经适当热退火处理有更好的整流特性同时对光致发光也更有利。     

SrTiO3/α-Fe2O3异质结光阳极光电转换性能

作为一类重要的光电极材料,α-Fe2O3在太阳能转化方面有着潜在的应用前景.但是,光生电子空穴对的再复合导致α-Fe2O3的光电量子产率很低.为了抑制光生电子空穴对的再复合,提高α-Fe2O3的光电量子产率,采用Spin-coating方法在透明导电玻璃FTO(SnO2:F)衬底上制备了SrTiO3/α-Fe2O3异质结薄膜光电极,并对该光电极进行了XRD、SEM、紫外-可见透射光谱的表征.在三电极光电化学测试系统中对薄膜的光电流-电压特性、入射光子电流转化效率(Incident photon to current efficiency,IPCE)对波长的依赖性进行了表征.在相同的Xe灯照射条件下,SrTiO3/α-Fe2O3异质结光电极的光电流及IPCE值大于单一的SrTiO3、α-Fe2O3各自的光电流及IPCE值,这与理论预测的结论一致.

Investigations on Pd:SnO2/porous silicon structures for sensing LPG and NO2 gas

P-type porous silicon (PS) structure has been prepared by anodic electrochemical etching process under optimized conditions. Photoluminescence studies of the PS structure show emission at longer wavelengths (red) for the excitation at 365 nm. Scanning electron microscope investigations of the PS surface confirm the formation of uniform porous structure, and the pore diameter have been estimated as 25 μm. Pd:SnO₂/PS/p-Si heterojunction with top gold ohmic contact developed by conventional methods has been used as the sensor device. Sensing properties of the device towards liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and NO₂ gas have been investigated in an indigenously developed sensor test rig. The response and recovery characteristics of the sensor device at different operating temperatures show short response time for LPG. From the studies, maximum sensitivity and optimum operating temperature of the device towards LPG and NO₂ gas sensing has been estimated as 69% at 180 °C and 52% at 220 °C, respectively. The developed sensor device shows a short response time of 25 and 57 s for sensing LPG and NO₂ gases, respectively.

十二烷二酸修饰TiO_2电子传输层改善钙钛矿太阳电池的电流特性

在经典的平面异质结钙钛矿太阳电池中,TiO_2致密层的电子传输性能一直是获得优异光伏性能的决定性因素之一.相较于spriro-OMe TAD等常见的空穴传输材料优异的空穴传输能力,作为电子传输材料的TiO_2的导电性较弱,无法形成良好的电荷匹配.为了解决这个问题,我们使用自组装的十二烷二酸(DDDA)单分子层来修饰TiO_2致密层的表面,TiO_2致密层的导电性能得到大幅提升,并且其能带结构得到优化,促进了电子传输,降低了电子积聚和载流子复合,使得电池的短路电流密度(JSC)从修饰前的20.34 mA·cm~(-2)提升至修饰后的23.28 mA·cm~(-2),进而使得电池在标准测量条件下的光电能量转换效率从14.17%提升至15.92%.同时还发现,通过DDDA修饰TiO_2致密层,所制备的器件的光稳定性显著提升,器件未封装暴露在AM 1.5光强100 mW·cm~(-2)的模拟太阳光下超过720 min,保持初始效率的71%以上且趋于稳定.
