Abstract

In this paper, the interesting hydrogen sensing properties of a Pd-gate AIGaN/GaN Schottky diode are Investigated. A significantly low detection limit of 850ppb H2/air gas can be observed with increasing the temperature to 423 K. The experimental results indicate that hydrogen molecules cause great influences on the diode breakdown voltage. Also, the diode exhibits an ultrahigh sensing response of 2.04 × 105 at 423 K when exposure to a 9660 ppm H2/alr gas. The transient response time and reversibility of the studied device can be improved by Increasing the operating, temperature.
