“…The presented process requires only one mask step and one evaporation process without contact alloying, in contrast to other published methods to form p-and ncontacts on the same side [3,4], where at least two mask steps and two evaporation steps, followed by contact alloying, are required. We have processed first dovetail DCPBHlasers on η-type substrate (n = 5 · 10 18 cm" 3 ), where we could also metallize the substrate side with Ti/Pt/Au.…”
