| Abstract: | The effect of ionizing radiation of 60Co γ-ray photons in the dose range 104–2 × 109 rad on metal-semiconductor Au-ZrB x-AlGaN/GaN and Au-TiB x-Al-Ti- n-GaN contacts and Au-ZrB x- n-GaN Schottky diodes is examined. The contacts with the TiB x and ZrB x diffusion barriers do not degrade under the effect of ionizing radiation if the dose does not exceed 108 rad. The Au-ZrB x- n-GaN Schottky diodes remain stable in the dose range 104–106 rad. As the radiation dose is increased to ≳108 rad, the damage to the contact metallization increases and is accompanied by formation of through pores, which is conducive to accumulation of oxygen at the Au-ZrB x(TiB x) interfaces and to an increase in mass transport of atoms in contact-forming layers. In this case, irradiation-caused degradation of the Schottky diodes is observed. Possible mechanisms of radiation damage of contact structures with diffusion barriers are analyzed.
