Nanoscale Mo Ohmic Contacts to III–V Fins
نویسندگان
چکیده
A novel contact-first approach for III–V FinFETs and trigate MOSFETs is presented. In this process, the metal contact is sputtered on the as-grown semiconductor heterostructure, and the contact metal is used as a part of the fin dryetch mask. We demonstrate this technique in Mo/n+-InGaAs contact structures with fin widths in the range of 50 to 300 nm. We have measured contact resistance in the range of 5 to 20 ·μm. These results are in good agreement with the stateof-art contact resistance obtained on planar devices using similar technology. We further explore the possibility of enhancing the contacts by wrapping the metal over the fin sidewalls and found no significant improvement.

Self-Aligned-Gate InGaAs HEMTs with Record High-Frequency Characteristics
We have developed a new self-aligned gate technology for InGaAs High Electron Mobility Transistors with non-alloyed Mo-based ohmic contacts and a very low parasitic capacitance gate design. The new process delivers a contact resistance of 7 Ohm-μm and a source resistance of 147 Ohm-μm. The nonalloyed Mo-based ohmic contacts show excellent thermal stability up to 600 °C. Using this technology, w...

Ohmic and Schottky contacts are playing a major role in the field of ZnO based electronics device fabrication. It is seen that several works have been reported on metallization scheme, contacts with this semiconducting material. But, the thickness of semiconducting material and the choosing of substrate still remain imperfect and inefficient for advanced IC technology. To estimate contact resis...

This work reports a nanoscale electro-structural characterisation of Ti/Al ohmic contacts formed on p-type Al-implanted silicon carbide (4H-SiC). The morphological and the electrical properties of the Al-implanted layer, annealed at 1700°C with or without a protective capping layer, and of the ohmic contacts were studied using atomic force microscopy [AFM], transmission line model measurements ...
متن کاملElectrical characterization and nanoscale surface morphology of optimized Ti/Al/Ta/Au ohmic contact for AlGaN/GaN HEMT
Good ohmic contacts with low contact resistance, smooth surface morphology, and a well-defined edge profile are essential to ensure optimal device performances for the AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors [HEMTs]. A tantalum [Ta] metal layer and an SiNx thin film were used for the first time as an effective diffusion barrier and encapsulation layer in the standard Ti/Al/metal/Au ohmic m...
متن کاملTwo-step deposition of Al-doped ZnO on p-GaN to form ohmic contacts
Al-doped ZnO (AZO) thin films were deposited directly on p-GaN substrates by using a two-step deposition consisting of polymer assisted deposition (PAD) and atomic layer deposition (ALD) methods. Ohmic contacts of the AZO on p-GaN have been formed. The lowest sheet resistance of the two-step prepared AZO films reached to 145 Ω/sq, and the specific contact resistance reduced to 1.47 × 10-2 Ω·cm2...
