Abstract
Ruthenium-doped InP (InP:Ru) has been grown by low-pressure hydride vapor-p hase epitaxy (LP-HVPE) using bis(eta (5)-2,4-dimethylpentadienyl)ruthenium( II) as precursor. Ruthenium concentrations in the range 2 x 10(15) to 2 x 1 0(18) cm(-3) have been achieved. The Ru incorporation has been studied in t erms of incorporation flux, and it is shown that the growth rate limits: th e incorporation rate. From current-voltage measurements on n-InP/InP:Ru/n-I nP and p-InP/InP:Ru/p-InP structures, resistivities greater than 10(3) Omeg a cm and greater than 10(10) Omega cm have been obtained, respectively.
