摘要：
We investigated the electrical characteristics of V/Al/Mo/Au ohmic contacts on AlGaN/GaN heterostructure field effect transistors (HFETs). A minimum ohmic contact resistivity of 1.6 x 10(-6) Omega cm(2) was achieved after annealing at 550 degrees C by optimizing V thickness to 15 nm. Cross-sectional transmission electron microscope (TEM) images exhibited a large difference in the extent of metal reaction between V/Al/Mo/Au and Ti/Al/Mo/Au. In addition to their lower contact resistivities, the low-temperature annealed V/Al/Mo/Au ohmic contacts exhibited better characteristics, such as enhanced breakdown voltages by about 100 V and smooth surface morphology, than the Ti/Al/Mo/Au ohmic contact annealed at the optimum annealing temperature.
