  • Abstract
    Refractory W electrodes are selectively deposited on a Ge contact layer with no W deposition on the surrounding SiO2 by employing WF6/SiH4 chemistry. The contact resistance of CVD-W to heavily-doped p-Ge is below 10-7 Omega cm2, which is suitable for selective ohmic metallisation for GaAs devices.
