Abstract
100 nm thick n-type polycrystalline In0.6Ga0.4 As layers have been grown on SiO2 by molecular beam epitaxy and their electrical properties have been investigated using Au/Pt/Ti as non-alloyed ohmic metals. A moderate sheet resistance of 4.7×102 Ω/□ was obtained, together with a low specific contact resistance of 8×10-8 Ω cm 2. This material should be useful for attaining high resistances in heterojunction bipolar transistor integrated circuits
