Abstract
We present the effect of active carrier concentration on the specific contact resistivity (ρ <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">c</sub> ) of in-situ molybdenum (Mo) Ohmic contacts to n-type InAs. It is observed that, although the Fermi level pins in the conduction band for InAs, the contact resistivity decreases with the increase in InAs active carrier concentration. The lowest ρ <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">c</sub> obtained through transmission line model measurements was (0.6±0.4)×10 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">-8</sup> Ω-cm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> for samples with 8.2×10 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">19</sup> cm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">-3</sup> active carrier concentration. The contacts were found to remain stable on annealing at 250°C for 1 hour.
