Abstract :
Diodes were formed by Mg ion implantation into n-epitaxial GaAs layers on n+Substrates. Deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) measurements gave trap densities around 1012cm-3in the epilayers. The reverse-biased junction currents were in the low-to-mid 10-9A/cm2range at 10-V bias and the diodes had breakdown voltages as high as 250 V.
