摘要
The electrical characteristics of Ti/Pt/Au contacts on p-type GaN/ A1(x)Ga(1-x)N (x = 0.10 and 0.20) superlattices (SL) have been investigated. Current-voltage and specific contact resistance measurements indicate enhanced p-type doping in the superlattice structures compared to that in GaN. Ti/Pt/Au is demonstrated to be an effective ohmic metallisation scheme for GaN/AlxGa1-xN superlattices. A low specific contact resistance of 4.6 x 10(-4) Ohm cm(2) is reported for unalloyed Ti/Pt/Au on an GaN/Al0.2N SL.
