Abstract :
Au Schottky barriers incorporating an interfacial native oxide have been formed on n type InP. Depending on oxide thickness and annealing conditions these devices exhibit high barrier heights, ¿B > 0.75 eV, ideality factors n as low as 1.04 and very low saturation current densities <~ 10¿7 Acm¿2.
