  • Abstract
    Low dose 4 MeV nitrogen implantation into n-GaAs is used to fabricate a compensated surface layer which is etched to produce a 2.5 μm thick semi-insulating GaAs membrane. The versatility of this process is demonstrated by the fabrication of a complex free standing 5.3 mm long 70 μm wide coiled membrane
