Enhanced UV–Vis Rejection Ratio in Metal/BaTiO3/β‐Ga2O3 Solar‐Blind Photodetectors by Nathan Wriedt, Lingyu Meng, Dong Su Yu, Chris Chae, Kyle Liddy, Ashok Dheenan, Sushovan Dhara, Roberto C. Myers, Oleg Maksimov, Richard Blakeley, Sanjay Krishna, Jinwoo Hwang, Hongping Zhao, Joe McGlone, Siddharth Rajan

“…It is hypothesized that the high permittivity of the dielectric overcomes the influence of self‐trapped holes in Ga2O3 to reduce the peak electric field at the dielectric/metal interface, thereby eliminating the effects of Schottky barrier lowering on illuminated β‐Ga2O3 photodetectors. Additionally, it is hypothesized that the increase in the UV–vis rejection ratio is caused by the “dead layer” that forms at the BaTiO3/Pt interface.…”
