Abstract
The effects of interaction between thin films of Zn and (100)InP were studied with secondary ion mass spectrometry, X-ray diffraction and tr ansmission electron microscopy. Zn was found to penetrate the native o xide on InP surface during deposition and to form an ohmic contact whe n deposited on highly doped n-type InP. Heat treatment causes the form ation of Zn3P2 phase lattice matched to InP.
