ABSTRACTVery low-resistivity non-alloyed ohmic contacts (Rc) to both p- and n-GaAs were realized using molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) in a vacuum integrated system. Three different metals of Au, Ag, and Nb were in-situ deposited on (1) p+-GaAs which was heavily Be-doped either in a uniform doping or with a 5-doping scheme; and (2) n+-GaAs which was doped in a 5-pair Si δ-doping with a spacer GaAs-Si 2.5 nm thick. In both cases, low Rc values of ≤ (1-5) x 10-7 Ω-cm2 were achieved.

AbstractA technique for in situ fabrication of aluminum-based Ohmic contacts to EuO by molecular-beam epitaxy is proposed. These contacts have a linear current–voltage curve and a contact resistance of 0.55 Ω mm and are stable in air. This suggests that the proposed technique holds promise for spintronic applications.

The cobalt disilicide/silicon system has potential applications as a metal-base and as a permeable-base transistor. Although thin, low defect density, films of CoSi2 on Si(111) have been successfully grown, there are reasons to believe that Si(100)/CoSi2 may be better suited to the transmission of electrons at the silicon/silicide interface than Si(111)/CoSi2. A TEM study of the formation of CoSi2 on Si(100) is therefore being conducted. We have previously reported TEM observations on Si(111)/CoSi2 grown both in situ, in an ultra high vacuum (UHV) TEM and ex situ, in a conventional Molecular Beam Epitaxy system.The procedures used for the MBE growth have been described elsewhere. In situ experiments were performed in a JEOL 200CX electron microscope, extensively modified to give a vacuum of better than 10-9 T in the specimen region and the capacity to do in situ sample heating and deposition. Cobalt was deposited onto clean Si(100) samples by thermal evaporation from cobalt-coated Ta filaments.

ABSTRACTAn investigation of the growth mechanism for RF-plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy of cubic GaN films using a nitrided AlGaAs buffer layer was carried out by in-situ reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) and high resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD). It was found that hexagonal GaN nuclei grow on (1, 1, 1) facets during nitridation of the AlGaAs buffer layer, but a highly pure, cubic-phase GaN epilayer was grown on the nitrided AlGaAs buffer layer.
