Hs. Venugopalan et Se. Mohney, CONDENSED-PHASE EQUILIBRIA IN THE MO-GA-N SYSTEM AT 800 DEGREES-C, Zeitschrift fur Metallkunde, 89(3), 1998, pp. 184-186
Phase equilibria were studied in the Mo-Ga-N system at 800 degrees C i
n order to better understand the metallurgy of Mo contacts to the wide
band gap semiconductor GaN. Liquid Ga metal and the solid phases Mo8G
a41, Mo3Ga, and beta-Mo2N were experimentally observed to be in thermo
dynamic equilibrium with GaN. Equilibrium between gamma-Mo2N and GaN c
an also be inferred. No ternary phases were found in any of the sample
s examined in this study.
