Abstract(in English) The capacitance-voltage (C-V) characteristics of In_<0.17>Al_<0.83>N/GaN heterostructure barrier varactors (HBV) grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition on a c-oriented sapphire substrate were studied. The favorable material properties of wide-band-gap III-N's are important in realizing the HBVs for frequency triples and distributed line pulse sharpens for practical use. The HBV structure consists of a 10-nm-thick undoped In_<0.17>Al_<0.83>N barrier sandwiched between two undoped GaN layers with a thickness of 5nm. The barrier structure is further sandwiched between two n-GaN (n=5×10^<17> cm^<-3>) layers with respective thicknesses of 500nm and 1μm to form the top and the bottom ohmic contacts. At room temperature, the C-V characteristics show a maximum capacitance C_ at approximately -0.6V because of the induced spontaneous polarization field within the heterostructure, and the I-V characteristics show an increase in leakage current below -1V and above 0.5V.
