700-K H2S adsorption in the monolayer range onto the GaAs (100) surface induces profound modifications of surface properties. Al in situ epitaxially deposited near room temperature by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on a H2S adsorbed semiconductor surface exhibits low-effective Schottky-barrier height. It is shown that this Schottky-barrier lowering can be used to obtain monocrystalline nonalloyed ohmic contacts with low specific-contact resistances.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
