Abstract :
A structure that consists of a semi-insulating layer over a buried n+ layer (SI/n+) has been obtained by MeV Si+ implantation into SI-GaAs substrates and subsequently tailored by a very low dose O+ implantation. This novel structure has been studied by measurements of current-voltage characteristics, electrochemical C-V profiling and Hall effects. The results indicate that this structure is suitable for the provision of isolation, the fabrication of active devices and internal interconnections
