Abstract

To study the formation of ohmic contacts, several metals have been deposited on p-types ZnTe and ZnSe epitaxial layers. The metals were deposited on the layers either by simple evaporation or by electroplating. The current-voltage characteristics associated with each metal contact were measured. The preliminary results of these measurements indicate that electroplating is a better technique for making ohmic contact to these layers.
