摘要
The influence of ultrasonic loading on reverse current-voltage characteristics of Mo/n-n+-Si structures has been investigated. The research of leakage current variation has been carried out for various ultrasonic wave frequencies (4.1 and 8.4 MHz), intensities (up to 0.8 W/cm2) and loading temperatures (130-330 K). The observed reversible acoustically induced increase in reverse currents was as large as 60%. It has been found that dominant charge transfer mechanisms are the thermionic emission (at high temperature) and the phonon-assisted tunneling (at low temperature). The ultrasound loading affects both processes due to the decrease of Schottky barrier height and binding energy of the electron on the trap.
