Abstract
A Si/Pd ohmic scheme (contact resistivity similar to 2 x 10(4) Omega-c m(2)) annealed between 400 and 650 degrees C has been developed for n- GaP (n similar to 5 x 10(17) cm(-3))). The ohmic contact formation mec hanism can be rationalised in terms of the solid phase regrowth (SPR) principle and the solid phase epitaxy of Si on n-GaP.
