Abstract:Based on the criteria for the solid-state exchange reaction with p-GaN, we have investigated the intermetallic compounds, Pt 3 In 7 and NiIn, as possible ohmic contacts. The as-deposited contacts were found to be rectifying and using current-voltage characterization rapid thermal annealing of the contacts was shown to significantly decrease their resistance, with contacts annealed at 800°C for 1 min yielding the lowest resistance. Pt 3 In 7 contacts to p-GaN when annealed at 800°C for 1 min exhibited a specifi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
