  • Abstract
    In this paper, energy distribution spectra of residual ion of the saddle-field argon (Ar) FAR source, and neutralization coefficients were experimentally evaluated for various process parameters by using an analyzer of our own fabricating. Moreover, GaInP/GaAs triple barrier resonant tunneling diodes (TBRTDs) were processed by using the argon FAB etching under appropriate condition and clear NDRs were estimated with high yield.
