Abstract :
Bulk unipolar (camel) diodes in GaAs have been made using thin, buried p+ layers doped with beryllium and grown by MBE. Barrier heights in the range 0.55 eV to 0.94 eV have been obtained by varying the p+-layer thickness. In all cases the ideality factors of the diodes were less than 1.5.
