Article Citation - WoS: 26Citation - Scopus: 27Impact of Yb, In, Ag and Au Thin Film Substrates on the Crystalline Nature, Schottky Barrier Formation and Microwave Trapping Properties of Bi2o3< Films(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2017) Khusayfan, Najla M.; Qasrawi, A. F.; Khanfar, Hazem K.The effect of the Yb, In, Ag and Au thin film metal substrates on the structural and electrical properties of Bi2O3 thin films are investigated by means of X-ray diffraction, impedance spectroscopy an current-voltage characteristic techniques. The Bi2O3 films are observed to exhibit a crystallization nature depending on the crystal structure of the substrate. Particularly, when the metal substrate is facing centered cubic, the Bi2O3 prefers the gamma-phase of body centered cubic crystallization for the (Yb, Ag and Au)/Bi2O3 interfaces. Whereas when a tetragonal substrate (indium) is used, the tetragonal beta-Bi2O3 single phase is preferred. All structural parameters presented by the lattice constant, degree of orientation, dislocation density, micro-strain and grain size are observed to strongly depend on the crystal type. In addition, the evaluation of the Schottky barrier formation at the (Yb, In, Ag, Au)/Bi2O3/Au interfaces by the current-voltage characteristics, revealed that the (In, Au)/Bi2O3/Au interface exhibit ohmic nature of contact and the (Yb,Ag)/Bi2O3/Au are of Schottky type, the rectification ratio for the Yb/Bi2O3/Au interface reaches a value of 10(5) indicating the applicability of these interfaces in CMOS digital logic devices. Moreover, the impedance spectroscopy analysis revealed that the ohmic interfaces exhibit a negative capacitance effect. The In/beta-Bi2O3/Au and Yb/.-Bi2O3/Au interfaces are performing as microwave traps with wave absorption percentage of 62% and 92% at frequencies of 193 and 1200 MHz, respectively. The features of the devices are promising as they indicate the applicability as microwave resonator and fast electronic switches.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 9Design and Characterization of Au/In4< Field Effect Transistors(Elsevier Science Bv, 2018) Khusayfan, Najla M.; Qasrawi, A. F.; Khanfar, Hazem K.In the current work, the structural and electrical properties of the In4Se3/Ga2S3 interfaces are investigated. The X-ray analysis which concern the structural evolutions that is associated with the substrate type has shown that the hexagonal kappa-In2Se3 and the selenium (rhombohedral) rich orthorhombic In4Se3 phases of InSe are grown onto glass and gold substrates, respectively, at substrate of temperature of 300 degrees C in a vacuum media. The coating of the kappa-In2Se3 and of In4Se3 with amorphous layer of Ga2S3 is accompanied with uniform strain. The In4Se3/Ga2S3 interface is found to be of attractive quantum confinement features as it exhibited a conduction and valence band offsets of 0.20 and 1.86 eV, respectively. When the Au/In4Se3/Ga2S3 interface was contacted with carbon metallic point contact, it reveals a back to back Schottky hybrid device that behaves typically as metal-oxidesemiconductor field effect transition (MOSFET). The depletion capacitance analysis of this device revealed built in voltage values of 1.91 and 1.64 V at the Au and C sides, respectively. The designed MOSFET which is characterized in the frequency domain of 0.01-1.80 GHz is observed to exhibit, resonance-anti-resonance phenomena associated with negative capacitance effect in a wide domain of frequency that nominate it for applications in electronic circuits as parasitic capacitance minimizer, bus switching speed enhancer and low pass/high pass filter at microwave frequencies.
