Abstract
The effective Schottky barrier height of nickel on gallium arsenide has been varied between 0.48 eV and 0.96 eV by using MBE to grow a range of thin heavily doped layers. Barrier lowering has been achieved with n-type layers doped with silicon or tin and barrier raising with p-type layers doped with beryllium. The ideality factor of the diodes was less than 1.2 in all cases.
