The metal-semiconductor contact is a major factor limiting the shrinking of transistor dimension to further increase device performance. In-plane edge contacts have the potential to achieve lower contact resistance due to stronger orbital…

Ohmic contacts to a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures are often realized by annealing of AuGe/Ni/Au that is deposited on its surface. We studied how the quality of this type of ohmic contact depends on the…

We report on fabrication and performance of submicron Ni/Au/Ge contacts to a two-dimensional electron gas in an AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure. Utilizing scanning transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, and low…

The study of electron transport in low-dimensional systems is of importance, not only from a fundamental point of view, but also for future electronic and spintronic devices. In this context heterostructures containing a two-dimensional…

We investigated temperature dependence of contact resistance of an Au-Ti-Pd2Si ohmic contact to heavily doped n+-Si. The contact resistance increases with temperature owing to conduction through the metal shunts. In this case, the limiting…

Contact resistivity rc of InP and GaAs based ohmic contacts was measured in the 4.2/300 K temperature range. Nonmonotonic dependences rc(T), with a minimum at temperature 50 K (150 K) for InP (GaAs) based contacts were obtained. The results…

Ohmic contacts to high (>70\%) Al content n-type Al$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$N ultra-wide bandgap semiconductor layers in nitride electronic and photonic devices are typically fabricated by a lift-off process and high temperature ($>700^\circ$C)…

GaAs was central to the development of quantum devices but is rarely used for nanowire-based quantum devices with InAs, InSb and SiGe instead taking the leading role. p-type GaAs nanowires offer a path to studying strongly-confined 0D and…

The Ni-Au-Ga interdiffusion mechanisms taking place during rapid thermal annealing (RTA) under oxygen atmosphere of a Ni-Au/p-GaN contact are investigated by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) coupled to energy…

Schottky barrier contact has been fabricated by thermal deposition of Al on (100) Ge (impurity concentration~1010/cm3 at 80K) that shows extrinsic p-type to intrinsic n-type transition near 180K. Both p and n-type Ge exhibits ideal Schottky…

Beta gallium oxide ($\beta$-Ga$_2$O$_3$) shows significant promise in the high-temperature, high-power, and sensing electronics applications. However, long-term stable metallization layers for Ohmic contacts at high temperature present…

Current voltage and Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy (KPFM) measurements were performed on single ZnO nanowires. Measurements are shown to be strongly correlated with the contact behavior, either ohmic or Schottky. The ZnO nanowires were…

This work reports on the morphological and electrical properties of Ni-based back-side Ohmic contacts formed by laser annealing process for SiC power diodes. Nickel films, 100 nm thick, have been sputtered on the back-side of heavily doped…

We achieved ohmic contacts down to 5 K on standard n-doped Ge samples by creating a strongly doped thin Ge layer between the metallic contacts and the Ge substrate. Thanks to the laser doping technique used, Gas Immersion Laser Doping, we…

Electrical properties of contact to p-type nitride semiconductor devices, based on gallium nitride were simulated by ab initio and by drift-diffusion calculations. The contact electric properties are shown to be dominated by electron…

Understanding of the electrical contact properties of semiconductor nanowire (NW) field effect transistors (FETs) plays a crucial role in employing semiconducting NWs as building blocks for future nanoelectronic devices and in the study of…

Electrical conductance through InAs nanowires is relevant for electronic applications as well as for fundamental quantum experiments. Here we employ nominally undoped, slightly tapered InAs nanowires to study the diameter dependence of…

Half-Heusler(HH) alloys have shown promising thermoelectric properties in the medium and high temperature range. To harness these material properties for thermoelectric applications, it is important to realize electrical contacts with low…

With the decrease of the dimensions of electronic devices, the role played by electrical contacts is ever increasing, eventually coming to dominate the overall device volume and total resistance. This is especially problematic for…

This paper is a report on Ohmic contacts on n-type and p-type type cubic silicon carbide (3C-SiC) layers grown on silicon substrates. In particular, the morphological, electrical and structural properties of annealed Ni and Ti/Al/Ni…
