摘要
Amongst the many types of semiconductor hydrogen sensors currently studied, Schottky-diodes are preferable as they are simple to fabricate and exhibit high sensitivities and fast response times. To enhance the sensor's performance, a gate insulator is deposited in order to minimize interfacial diffusion between the electrode and the substrate. In this work, we present a novel MIS Schottky-diode hydrogen sensor with LaTiON as gate insulator. The hydrogen-sensing properties (sensitivity, barrier height variation) were examined from room temperature (RT) to 150 degrees C and its sensitivity was found to reach 2.5 at 100 degrees C. Moreover, the hydrogen reaction kinetics were studied and these results showed that the sensor was very sensitive to hydrogen ambient. (C) 2011 Published by Elsevier B.V.
