Abstract
Ultra-wide bandgap β-Ga2O3 photodiodes have received great attention due to transparent solar-blind deep ultraviolet photodetectors. We demonstrated an all oxide-based single-crystal β-Ga2O3 photodiode incorporated with transparent conductive InZnSnO and InSnO as Schottky and Ohmic contacts, respectively. High work function and low resistivity of InZnSnO allow for clear rectifying characteristics with a low dark current (<0.1 nA) of up to ?100 V of reverse bias. The Schottky barrier height and junction defects at the Schottky interface were modified using post-annealing treatment, thereby influencing the deep ultraviolet photoresponse. The responsivity of the annealed device was 9.6 mA/W, decreasing the Schottky barrier height engineering, while the photo responding speed was degraded and caused a persistent photocurrent effect due to the generation of defect states.
