Abstract

Ti/Pt and W/pt was used form contacts on hevily doped InAs and InGaAs emitter layers of heterojunction Bipolar transistors (HBTs) . The as deposited contacts were ohmic for Ti/Pt on InAs and W/Pt on InGaAs. The rapid thermal annealing was performed in the temperature range of 300-600 C. The contact characteristics of Ti/Pt and W/Pt were compared with Au/Cr contacts.
