This study investigated the effects of the post annealing temperatures on the electrical and interfacial properties of a metal-semiconductor-metal photodetector(MSM-PD) device. The interdigitate type MSM-PD devices had the structure Al(500 nm) / Ti(200 nm) / poly-Si(500 nm). Structural analyses of the MSM-PD devices were performed by employing X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and transmission electron microscope(TEM). Electrical characteristics of the MSM-PD were also examined using current-voltage(I-V) measurements. The optimal post annealing condition for the Schottky contact of MSM-PD devices are $350^{\circ}C$-30minutes. However, as the annealing temperature and time are increased, electrical characteristics of MSM-PD device are degraded. Especially, for the annealing conditions of $400^{\circ}C$-180minutes and $500^{\circ}C$-30minutes, the I-V measurement itself was impossible. These results are closely related to the solid phase reactions at the interface of MSM-PD device, which result in the formation of intermetallic compounds such as $Al_3Ti$ and $Ti_7Al_5Si_{12}$.

A metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) ultraviolet (UV) photodetector (PD) is proposed as an effective UV sensing device for integration with a GaN n-channel MISFET on auto-doped p-type GaN grown on a silicon substrate. Due to the high hole barrier of the metal-p-GaN contact, the dark current density of the fabricated MSM PD was less than $3\;nA/cm^2$ at a bias of up to 5 V. Meanwhile, the UV/visible rejection ratio was 400 and the cutoff wavelength of the spectral responsivity was 365 nm. However, the UV/visible ratio was limited by the sub-bandgap response, which was attributed to defectrelated deep traps in the p-GaN layer of the MSM PD. In conclusion, an MSM PD has a high process compatibility with the n-channel GaN Schottky barrier MISFET fabrication process and epitaxy on a silicon substrate.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare the microbial and clinical effects of mechanical debridement (MD) alone or in combination with the application of enamel matrix derivative (EMD) and sustained-release micro-spherical minocycline (MSM) for treatment of peri-implant mucosal inflammation (PIMI). Materials and Methods: Subjects with at least one implant with PIMI were included and divided into control and two different test groups. In all three groups, MD was performed. In the MSM group, following MD, MSM was placed subgingivally around the implants. In the EMD group, after MD, EMD was placed in the sulcus around the implants. Sampling of peri-implant crevicular fluid for microbial analysis with real-time polymerase chain reaction and recording of probing depth (PD) and bleeding on probing (BOP) were performed prior to as well as two weeks and three months after treatment. Median values and interquartile range were estimated for each variable during the various assessment intervals of the study. Results: In all groups, at two weeks and three months, the counts of Porphyromonas gingivalis decreased significantly compared to baseline. Levels of P. gingivalis were significantly reduced in MSM (P<0.001) and EMD (P=0.026) groups compared to the control group. Also, clinical parameters improved significantly at two weeks and three months. Reduction of PD was significant in MSM (P<0.001) and EMD (P<0.001) groups. The decrease in BOP in the MSM, EMD, and control groups was 60%, 50%, and 20%, respectively. Conclusion: The use of MSM and EMD can be an adjunctive treatment for management of PIMI and improves clinical parameters and reduces P. gingivalis burden three months after treatment.

본 연구에서는 radio frequency (RF)-스퍼터링을 이용하여 SiC 기판 위에 Ga₂O₃ 박막을 증착하여 Metal-Semiconductor-Metal (MSM) UV photodetector (PD)를 제작하였고, 산소 후열처리에 따른 PD 성능을 연구하였다. 산소 후열처리된 Ga₂O₃ 박막은 외부 광에 대한 전류의 상당한 증가와 시간 의존성 on/off 광 응답 특성에서 측정된 감소시간이 1.21, 1.12 s로 후열처리를 하지 않은 박막의 감소시간인 1.34, 3.01 s 보다 더 빠른 반응을 보여주었다. 이러한 특성은 산소 후열처리 후의 산소 공공 및 결함 분포 변화에 기인한다. 우리의 연구 결과는 산소 후열처리가 PD 성능 향상에 영향을 미칠 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다.

In this paper we report the fabrication of an InGaAs metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) photodiode(PD) which an InAlAs barrier enhancement layer that has very low dark current and high speed chracteristics. The detector using Cr/Au schottky metal fingers with 4um spacing on a large active area of 300*300um$^{2}$ offers a low dark current of 38nA at 10V, a low capacitance of 0.8pF, and a high 3-dB bandwidth of 2.4 GHz. To our knowledge, these characteristics are better than any previously published results obtained from large area InGaAs MSM PD's. The RC equivalent model and frequency domain current response model considering transit time were also used to analyze the frequency characteristic of the fabricated device.

The interdigitated germanium (Ge) meta-lsemiconductor-metal (MSM) photodetectors (PDs) with and without an $SiO_2$ anti-reflection (AR) layer was fabricated, and the effect of $SiO_2$ AR layer on their optoelectronic response properties were investigated in detail. The lowest reflectance of 15.6% at the wavelength of 1550 nm was obtained with a $SiO_2$ AR layer with a thickness of 260 nm, which was in a good agreement with theoretically calculated film thickness for minimizing the reflection of Ge surface. The Ge MSM PD with 260 nm-thick $SiO_2$ AR layer exhibited enhanced device performance with the maximum values of responsivity of 0.65 A/W, the quantum efficiency of 52.2%, and the detectivity of $2.49{\times}10^9cm\;Hz^{0.5}W^{-1}$ under the light illumination with a wavelength of 1550 nm. Moreover, time-dependent switching analysis of Ge MSM PD with 260 nm- thick $SiO_2$ AR layer showed highest on/off ratio with excellent stability and reproducibility. All this investigation implies that 260 nm-thick $SiO_2$ AR layer, which is effective in the reduction in the reflection of Ge surface, has a great potential for Ge based optoelectronic devices.

Gas source molecular beam epitaxy have been used in the growth of InAlAsAnGaAs MSM-PD structure, in which InAlAs ultra thin layer was used as Schottky barrier enhancement material. High performance MSM-PDs have been constructed on the grown wafer. High breakdown voltage of >30V, low dark current density of $3pA/\mu \textrm{cm}^2$ at 10V bias and fast transient response of <20ps rise time / <40ps FWHM have been measured, which confirm the results that GSMBE is a superior method for the growth of materials with high layer and interfacial quality, especially for InP based InAIAdInGaAs system.
