Abstract :
In this paper, we expect higher doping concentrations to reduce the resistance of the drift zone in forward bias, on the other hand leakage current in reverse bias must be kept at a minimum and the breakdown voltage unchanged. An unintentional n-doping of 1.10/sup 16/ cm/sup -3/, that is characteristic for MBE (Molecular Beam Epitaxy) grown samples, is currently still degrading the reverse bias characteristics and will be improved in further test structures.
