  • Abstract
    In present work chemical model describing mechanism of GaN etching and mechanism of Ga-rich layer formation in process of BCl3 plasma treatment of GaN surface is proposed and included to plasma simulation of this process. Numerical results are compared with experimentally measured dependence of ohmic contact resistance on the ICP parameters used in simulation.
