We have fabricated oxidized Si termination (C-Si-O) diamond channel (001) vertical diamond MOSFETs with native oxide SiO2 as channel protection film formed by the ultrahigh vacuum Si molecular beam deposition (MBD) approaches. The maximum drain current density (ID,max) was 214 mA/mm, 5350 A/cm2, the on-resistance (Ron) was 8.1 mΩ·cm2, and the threshold voltage (Vth) was −4.5 V. By introducing the C-Si-O channel, the Vth shifted more than 20 V in the negative direction compared to conventional vertical devices with hydrogen-terminated (C-H) diamond channel, and this achieved the highest ID,max among the normally-off vertical diamond FETs.
