Abstract

Mo—In—Mn metallization is used to form ohmic contact on Be—implanted Rapid Thermally annealed GaAs. The rapid thermal alloying of Mo—In—Mn contact metallization is performed at various temperatures and times in A.G. Associates Heat Pulse 410 system in forming gas atmosphere. The electrical properties of the contacts were analyzed by current-voltage and contact resistivity measurements. The microstructures of the contacts were analyzed using scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive x-ray analysis, x-ray diffraction and secondary ion mass spectroscopy.
