Abstract

A novel Schottky-diode hydrogen sensor with high-k material HfO2 as gate insulator has been fabricated and studied. The influences of hydrogen concentration and temperature on hydrogen-sensing performance of the device are investigated. Experimental results show that the sensor demonstrates high sensitivity, rapid and stable response, especially at a high operating temperature of 300 °C. These sensing characteristics provide the sensor potential applications for detecting hydrogen leakage in harsh environments. In conclusion, HfO2 is a promising gate insulator to substitute SiO 2 for preparing high-performance MISiC Schottky hydrogen sensor.
