▎ 摘  要

In this report, we demonstrate a novel high temperature Hall effect sensor that is based on quasi free -standing monolayer graphene epitaxially grown on high-purity semiinsulating (SI) on-axis 4H-SiC(0001) substrate in a chemical vapor deposition process. To ensure statistical perspective, characteristics of 23 elements are determined as a function of temperature ranging from 300 to 770 K. Passivated with a 100-nm-thick atomic-layer deposited aluminum oxide, the sensor offers current-mode sensitivity of 80 V/AT with thermal stability of -0.02%/K within the range between 300 and 573 K, and -0.06%/K between 573 and 770 K. The sensor's room-temperature output voltage is monitored in the magnetic field from 300 to +300 mT and its offset voltage at 0 T is assessed. Its high-temperature electrical properties are explained through a double-carrier transport involving spontaneous polarization -induced holes in the graphene layer and thermally activated electrons emitted from a deep acceptor level related to silicon vacancy VSO 2-occupying the k site of the 4H-SiC lattice. The sensor is compared with a previously reported one on vanadium-compensated SI on-axis 6HSiC(0001). The new sensor's applicability to magnetic field detection at high temperatures is verified.
