Simple method of measuring drift-mobility profiles in thin semiconductor films

Abstract

A simple method of measuring drift-mobility profiles in semiconductor films is described. It is based on the low-frequency measurement of the transconductance and gate capacitance of an f.e.t. structure as a function of gate bias. Drift mobilities of 4000 to 5000 cm2/Vs have been measured on n-type GaAs films with 1016 to 1017 cm−3 doping levels.
