Abstract

Silicon dioxide deposited by RF sputtering is used as the gate insulator of Metal-Insulator-SiC (MISiC) Schottky-diode hydrogen sensors. Sensors with different gate insulator thicknesses are fabricated for investigation. Their hydrogen-sensing properties are compared with each other by taking measurements at various temperatures and hydrogen concentrations using a computer-controlled measurement system. Experimental results show that the sensitivity of the devices is strongly related to the thickness of the insulator, and the thicker the insulator, the higher is the sensitivity.
