Abstract

In this paper, current-voltage-temperature (I-V-T) characteristics of vertical diodes realized by different selective epitaxial growth techniques have been investigated. Diodes by the batch-type cyclic SEG process at low temperature have shown eligible performances for vertical switches, including ideality factor of 1.08, off-current of 1.0×1012 A and on/off-ratio of 2.4×108. The optimization of crystallographic defects and series resistance is expected to be the most critical for the performances of vertical diodes for next generation memories.
