In order to passivate the GaAs surface, silicon-nitride films were fabricated by using laser CVD method. SiH$_4$ and NH$_3$ were used to obtain SiN films in the range of 100∼300$^{circ}C$ on p-type (100) GaAs substrate. To determine interface characteristics of the metal-insulator-GaAs structure, electrical measurements were performed such as C-V curves and deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS). The results show that the hysteresis was reduced and interface trap density was lowered to 1,012 ∼ 1,013 at 100 ∼ 200$^{circ}C$. According to the study of surface leakage current, the passivated CaAs has less leakage current compared to non-passivated substrate.
