  • Abstract
    The specific contact resistivity of lattice matched InGaAs/InP p-isotype heterojunction has been measured through the use of an interface transmission line model structure. The measured resistance values are comparable to or greater than those of the metal/semiconductor interface and depend heavily on the doping and the abrupt or graded nature of the interface.
