Abstract
The resistance of NiAuGe/Au ohmic contacts on n-type GaAs, grown by mo lecular beam epitaxy, on (111)A GaAs substrates which are misoriented by 5-degrees toward [100] has been studied. The ohmic contacts were fo rmed by simultaneously evaporating Ni and a eutectic alloy of AuGe and then evaporating a layer of Au. The contacts were alloyed at 450-degr ees-C. Contact resistances (R(c)) from 0.035 OMEGA . mm to 0.056 OMEGA -mm are observed.
