Abstract:Achieving low resistance contacts to p‐type Gallium Nitride is a critical requirement for the fabrication of reliable AlGaN/InGaN laser diodes and nitride‐based light‐emitting diodes (LEDs). Three separate groups of materials are examined. The first is a family of borides, including W2B, W2B5, CrB2, TiB2, and ZrB2; the second is a group of nitrides, TaN, TiN, and ZrN; and the third is the refractory metal Ir. Using these materials both directly on the surface of p‐GaN as well as a diffusion barrier for Ni/Au‐b… Show more
