Abstract :
Ti/Al/Pt/Au and V/Al/Pt/Au ohmic contacts were studied on n-Al0.44Ga0.56N and n-Al0.6Ga0.4 N. Optimised V/Al/Pt/Au contacts provided lower resistance than did Ti/Al/Pt/Au contacts, which are commonly used on less Al-rich n-AlGaN. Specific contact resistances of 1 × 10-5 Ω·cm2 and 4 × 10-5 were achieved on n-Al0.44Ga0.56N and n-Al0.6Ga0.4N, respectively
