Özet

IEEESensitivity (S) and drive mode are the crucial issues for the vertical metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) type diode applied in temperature sensing. In this study, experimentally, we indicated that the S values of the Ni_(50nm)-Au_(100nm)/Ga₂O₃/p-Si vertical MOS type diode, using the measured capacitance-voltage (C_m-V) outputs, are obtained with a novel drive mode. We applied the constant capacitance mode to drive the silicon thermo-diodes as well as constant current mode, and constant voltage mode, which are known as two different methods in the literature. Meanwhile, the S value is 21.2mV/K at 1nF. This value is the highest value proven in the literature excepting the cryogenic temperature region, and near the room temperature. This study provided an original structure for the silicon thermo-diodes and a novel way to drive them.
