摘要
The thermal stability of interfaces between metals (Ni, Pt, Ti, Mo) and III-V compound semiconductors has been investigated by the application of Rutherford backscattering spectrometry. Metal diffusion and interfacial lattice disorder of the semiconductors were analyzed for various metal/semiconductor samples annealed at temperatures up to 500 degrees C. The interfaces of Ni/GaAs and Ti/GaAs were found to be more stable than those of Ni/In-based semiconductors and Ti/In-based semiconductors, respectively. Faster diffusion of Pt atoms was observed in In- and As-containing materials than in P-containing materials. Mo/semiconductor interfaces were the most stable.
