Popis: An investigation with the objective of improving n-type ohmic contacts to GaSb-based devices is described. This study involves a series of n-GaInAsSb and n-GaSb samples with varying doping, grown on semi-insulating (SI) GaAs substrates. These samples were fabricated into mesa-etched, transfer-length method (TLM) structures, and the specific-contact resistivity and sheet resistance of these layers as a function of majority electron concentration were measured. Extremely low specific-contact resistivities of about 2 × 10−6 Ω-cm2 and sheet resistances of about 4 Ω/▭ are found for n-type GaInAsSb doped at about 3 × 1018 cm−3.
