A low specific contact resistance of 7×10-7 Ωcm2 is obtained after a 15 s annealing at 400 °C. Afterwards the contacts can be thickened with an extra deposition of metals. Scanning electron microscope pictures show abrupt and uniform interfaces between metals and semiconductors.","PeriodicalId":181494,"journal":{"name":"26th International Conference on Indium Phosphide and Related Materials (IPRM)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115127049","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
