Abstract

The invention discloses an ohmic contact forming method for a (100) oriented n-type monocrystalline diamond electrode. The problems of difficulty in ohmic preparation of (100) oriented n-type monocrystalline diamond and high specific contact resistivity in the prior art are solved. The forming method comprises the following steps: S1, grinding and polishing the surface of (100)-oriented n-type monocrystalline diamond to obtain a smooth surface; S2, growing an n-type monocrystalline diamond epitaxial thin layer on the ground surface of the n-type monocrystalline diamond by utilizing an MPCVD method, and then converting a hydrogen terminal on the surface of the thin layer into an oxygen terminal by means of acid pickling or ultraviolet ozone treatment to obtain a sample A; S3, putting the oxidized sample A into an annealing furnace for annealing so as to separate out phosphorus on the surface of the thin layer and reconstruct carbon atoms to obtain a high-conductivity diamond surface; and S4, plating the high-conductivity diamond surface with a metal electrode, and putting the high-conductivity diamond surface in an annealing furnace for annealing to form ohmic contact.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electronic engineering, and in particular relates to a (100) orientation n-type single crystal diamond electrode ohmic contact forming method. Background technique [0002] The n-type doping technology of diamond semiconductors limits its wide application in electronic devices. Japan's Material and Materials Research Institute used microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition (MPCVD) to successfully achieve n-type doping of diamond single crystal thin films on the surface of single crystal diamond (111) using phosphorus atoms. On this basis, they quickly carried out the application of diamond p-n junction and p-i-n junction diodes in the field of light-emitting devices and power electronic devices. However, the (111) plane has the problem of difficult mechanical polishing, and its metal / diamond contact interface properties and the photoelectric properties of the film are worse than that of the (100) plane....
