Abstract

Characterizations of transparent Schottky barrier GaN and AlGaN UV detectors in the vacuum UV (VUV) and soft X-ray (SX) region using synchrotron radiation are described. In the GaN UV detectors, the responsivity achieved about 0.05 A/W at 95 eV (13 nm). Thus, their device performance is shown between 3.4 and 100 eV (10 and 360 nm). Furthermore, the high responsivity spectra were realized by using AlGaN Schottky UV detectors consisting of Al0.5Ga0.5N on AlN epitaxial layer.
