摘要
An investigation was made of the forward branch of the current-voltage characteristic (at temperatures in the range 77-410 K) of surface-barrier structures made of lightly doped epitaxial gallium arsenide films with an electron density 3 x 10(15) cm-3, grown on low-resistivity substrates. A thermionic emission current was observed, as expected, at high temperatures (300-410 K), whereas at low temperatures (77-270 K) an unexpected tunnel-type current appeared and this was clearly due to defects that formed in the epitaxial films during growth on a heavily doped substrate.
