Temperature dependence of contact resistance of Au−Ti−Pd2Si−n⁺ -Si ohmic contacts

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
 process is diffusion in...

Description
Summary: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
 process is diffusion input of electrons to the metal shunts. The proposed mechanism of
 contact resistance formation seems to realize also in the case of wide-gap semiconductors
 with high concentration of surface states and dislocation density in the contact.
