Abstract

We introduce an excellent Ohmic contact technique in n-type GaSb by using a thin (∼ 5 nm thick) Indium Gallium Zinc Oxide (IGZO), achieving a high on-current density of 6.804 A/cm3 and a low on/off-current ratio of 1.64 and also resolving Fermi level pinning problem near the valence band edge. A thin IGZO on n-type GaSb annealed at 500°C before metal deposition contributes to Ohmic contact formation because of two main causes; (1) InSb narrows the energy bandgap and (2) free Sb as traps induces tunneling current.
