Abstract
Si/Pd-based contact schemes based on the solid phase regrowth (SPR) principle have been developed to form low resistance ohmic contacts to n type Al0.5In0.5P and Ga0.5In0.5P lattice matched to GaAs grown by gas source molecular beam epitaxy (GSMBE). Lowest contact resistivities of ~6×10-6 Ω-cm2 and ~1×10-5 Ω-cm2 have been obtained on Al0.5In 0.5P and Ga0.5In0.5P respectively (both doped to ~2×1018 cm-3). In this article, the electrical properties and the ohmic contact formation model of the Si/Pd-based contacts to n-Al0.5In0.5P and n-Ga0.5In0.5P are presented
