Abstract: Detailed current–voltage–temperature (I–V–T) measurements were performed on the Schottky diodes fabricated on MOVPE-grown n-GaN layers. A large deviation from the thermionic emission (TE) transport was observed in the reverse I–V curves with a large excess leakage. From the calculation based on the thermionic-field emission (TFE) model, it was found that the tunneling plays an important role in the carrier transport across the GaN Schottky barrier even for doping densities as low as 1×10(17) cm(−3). A novel barrier-modified TFE model based on presence of near-surface fixed charges or surface states is proposed to explain the observed large reverse leakage currents.
