Abstract :
Si-doped InxGa1-xAs layers (x = 0.53) with the highest electron concentrations of 5.0 and 6.1 à 1019 cm-3 have been achieved with the use of low growth temperatures (420 and 370°C) for MBE. Nonalloyed Cr/Au ohmic contacts on these heavily doped InGaAs layers exhibited specific contact resistance as low as 1.7 à 10-8 ¿cm2.
