ABSTRACTWe report the low resistance ohmic contacts to p-GaN using a Pd/Au bimetal scheme. A specific contact resistivity of 9.1 × 10-3 Ω-cm2 was obtained after annealing. The metallization was e-beam evaporated on 2 μm-thick p-GaN (∼ 9 × 1016/cm3) layers grown on c-plane sapphire substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). The comparison with other contacts showed that the contact resistivity of the Pd/Au contacts was at least one order smaller than those of Pt/Au and Ni/Au contacts.

ABSTRACTWe report new Cr/Ni/Au and Ni/Cr/Au tri-layer metallization schemes for achieving low resistance ohmic contacts to moderately doped p- (∼1 × 1017/cm3), and n-GaN (∼1 × 1018/cm3) respectively. The metallizations were thermally evaporated on 2 μm-thick GaN layers grown on c-plane sapphire substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Comparisons with bi-layer metallizations such as Ni/Au and Cr/Au were also made. The Cr/Ni/Au contacts showed a low specific contact resistivity of 9.1 × 10−5 Ω⋅cm2 to n-GaN while that of Ni/Cr/Au to p-GaN was 8.3 × 10−2 Ω⋅cm2. The Ni/Cr/Au contacts also showed a low specific contact resistivity of 2.6 × 10−4 Ω⋅cm2 to n-GaN. The Ni/Cr/Au metallization could made reasonable ohmic contacts to p- and n-GaN simultaneously

ABSTRACTA selective deposition of W(Zn) metallization, for formation of diffused ohmic contacts onto InP-based material was realized by means of rapid thermal, low pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (RT-LPMOCVD). The W(Zn) layers were deposited using a reactive gas mixture that contained diethylzinc (DEZn), WF6, H2 and Ar, at temperatures of 450 to 550°C and pressures in the range of 1–5 torr. Uniform andcontinuous layers of W(Zn), 30 to 120 nm thick, were obtained. These layers contained Zn at concentrations higher than 1×l018 cm−3, which was subsequentially in-diffused into the underlying semiconductor layer to form highly doped semiconductor layers as thick as 0.2μm. As a result, the specific contact resistance of the W(Zn)/ In0.53Ga0.47 As contact was reduced to minimum value of 5×l0−6 Ω·cm2. The W(Zn) film were found to be mechanically stable with a small compressive stress of 5.10−8 dyne. cm−2, and dry etch rates of up to 90 nmmin.

Post Deposition

In this work, we have investigated triple and innovative multiple stacked contacts onto ptype SiC in order to evaluate whether or not there is any improvement in morphology or specific contact resistivity. The stacked metal contacts are based on Al, Ti and Ni with the specific contact resistivity measured at a low value of 5.02×10-6'cm2 for an Al(100 nm)/Ti(100 nm)/Al(10 nm) (where a “/” indicates the deposition sequence) triple stacked metal contact. XRD microstructural analysis and SEM measurements have been carried out and it has been discovered that the contacts, which formed the compound Ti3SiC2 at the metal/SiC interface, more readily display low-resistance ohmic characteristics after a post deposition anneal. Although the same amount of Ti (100 nm in total) has been deposited closer to the metal/SiC interface, none of the multiple stacked structures displayed ohmic behaviour after a post deposition anneal.
