Capacitance-voltage measurements show a low interface trap density of ?3.9×1010eV-1cm-2, probably indicating an unpinning of the surface Fermi level. Additionally, current-voltage measurements display a low leakage current of ?1.2 μA/cm2 at a gate voltage of +20 V, regardless of rough oxide surface, as confirmed by atomic force microscopy observations. Thus, the stacked SiO2/β-Ga2O3 insulator is found to improve both the electrical interface properties and the gate dielectric characteristics of the GaN MOS structures., application/pdf}, pages = {4336--4338}, title = {Characteristics of SiO2/n-GaN interfaces with β-Ga2O3 interlayers}, volume = {83}, year = {2003} }
