Abstract :
Ohmic contact scheme, Au/Si/Ni/n-InP, was studied in the research. A lowest specific contact resistance of 1.98times10-6 omega-cm2 was obtained after rapid thermal annealing (RTA) at 450degC for 30 sec. Two new phases, In3Ni2(012), Au3In2(114) were observed by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) after the ohmicity was reached. Both in-diffusion of the elements Au, Si and Ni and out-diffusion of In were observed by Auger analysis after the contact was RTA-450degC annealed. The ohmicity of the contact scheme was due to the silicon doping on the InP surface, and forming high density of electron concentration
