  • Abstract
    The effects of radiation damage on the current/voltage characteristics of Ni-GaAs Schottky barriers are studied. Boron ions implanted into the semiconductor are shown to reduce the device contact resistance. The nature of the defect levels so introduced are studied by thermally stimulated current and capacitance measurements.
