Abstract
ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE: In a new contacting structure on a semiconductor substrate, the upper surface of the substrate made of a material corres-ponding to the formula As1-x Alx Ga, with x#0.3, is partly covered by a layer of gallium arsenide. The whole of this surface is covered with a metallic layer. The zones of electrical current are localised below the layer of gallium arsenide.
Description
7~
~leterojunction structures based on gallium arsenide are primarily used in optical-fibre telecommunication systems. Accordingly, in ordex to obtain correct coupling of the light-emittin~ components with optical fibres, it is of j advantage to reduce the dimensions of their active parts by as ; much as possible.
Various processes have been used for this purpose, including the implantation of protons in order to render certain zones insulating, etching the so-called "mes~" type for eliminating certain unuseful zones, etc.
All these methods are attended by the disad-vantage that they involve the risk of the active parts of the , component to be damaged.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a new contacting structure which enables the dimensions of the active parts of photosensitive or electroluminescent components to be reduced.
According to the invention a contacting structure on a semiconductor arrangement comprises a metallic layer deposited on one face of a sllbstrate, wherein said one face comprises at least one first and one second zone made respectively of a first material and a second material,the respective contacts on the first and second zones offering ,~ resistances of which one is very high and the other very low.
The invention will be better understood from the following description in conjunction with the accompanying ' drawings, wherein:
~l/
lO~ i7i Fig. 1 is a ~erspective view o a "laser" diode of known type.
Yigs. 2, 3 and 4 show a "laser" diode acco~ding to the invention during the various steps involved in its production.
Fig. 5 is a perspective view o this diode.
Fig. 6 is a perspective view showing the "laser" cavity of the diode illustrated in Fig. 5.
~.
Fig. 7 is a cross-section through one example of embodi-ment of the invention. -In all the flgures~ the same references denote the same elements.
In Fig. 1, a monocrystalline substrate of galliumarsenide with transverse dimensions of the order of 100 microns to 300 microns has been cleaved on two opposite surfaces so that the surfaces are planar and parallel.
This substrate has, for example, n-type conductivity and is heavily doped (about 1018 at/cc).
A first layer 2 with a thickness of the order of 1 micron has been applied to this substrate by epitaxial growth, being of the same conductivit~ type as the substrate but having the composition Gal x AlxAs.
~ This epitaxial growth may be carried out in the liquid phase at 800C to 960C in a bath of gallium saturated with gallium arsenide and also containing aluminium in solution.
Processes o~ this t~pe are t.~ell known in the art. The value of ~; x may vary rom 0,1 to a.3. This layer is of ; : - - . , : .

n-type conductivity, but with a doping concentration of 1016 to 1018 at/cc for example. Another layer which will ~- be the seat of the emission of light and which has the composition Ga1 y Aly As (y < x) has been applied to this 5 layer by the same process of epitaxial growth.
This layer 3 will have a thickness of the order of 0.1 to 1 micron and its conductivity type will be different.
The only condition is that the width of its forbidden band should be less than that of the layers by which it is enclo-10 sed. A layer 4 of different composition, Ga1 x~ A1x, As ~ (x' = approximately 0.3) and doped with p-type conductivity 3 is deposited onto this layer by the same process. The thickness ~ of the layer 4 is of the same order of magnitude as that ;~ of the layer 2. A terminal layer 5 of gallium arsenide heavily v 15 doped with pl type conductivity and having a thickness of the order of 1 micron is deposited onto the layer 4.
ç A double heterojunction diode is thus obtained and it is known that, for a range of voltages directly biassing the 4 ~ diode, the zone 3 may be the seat of electroluminescence . 20 phenomena. To make a laser, this phenomenon has to be loca-lised in a resonant cavity, i.e a cavity of which all the boundariesare determined with considerable precision.
; Known systems are subjected, for example, to attacks of the "mesa" type or to proton bombardment and, by masking, 25 certain parts of the above-mentioned layers are rendered ' insulating.

~O~t~P'7l and the component thus obtained are described with reference to the ollowing Eigurës:
Fiy. 2 sho~s the layers L, 2, 3, 4 and S ater their for-mation by epit~xy.
In Fig 3, the layer S has been attacked through a mask in such a way that it only remains in the form of a band exten-ding from one cle~ved surface to the other surface of the sub-strate. This band 6, which has a transverse dimension of the order of 1 micron, may be obtained with a great accuracy. The attack may be made either chemicaLly or by ion machining. It is carried out in such à way as to remove the layer 5 at the places where it has not been protected so as to expose the layer i 4. There thus remains a band 6 of gallium arsenide.
In Fig. 4, a metalLic layer 7 has been deposited onto the assembly, or example by evaporation in vacuo. A succession of metallic materials may be deposited in this way.
Now, it is known that the contacts on the layers made of materialssuch as Gal x' Alx, As (x' = approximately 0.3) and weakly doped oer a high resistance to the passage of the ~; 20 current~ By contrast, the metallic contacts on GaAs are very good. This would appear to be due to the fact that the pre-I sence of aluminium is the cause of the production of a thin - layer of alumina which acts as an insulator.
The result a this is that the lines o current are localised below the band of GaAs. Experience has shown that these lines of current remain substantially parallel and arrive , :~
on the active zone 3 perpendicularly of its two end aces.
The assembly thus obtained is shown in perspective in Fig. 5. It can be seen that the zone 3 is only luminescent in ~ 30 its part which faces the band 6 o GaAs. There has thus been ,~ .

': , -~0~95'~'1 are the two cLeaved suraces o the substrate and which is delimited by vertical planes which are the respective extensions of the two vertical sides o~ the ~and of As and extending from one cleaved surface to the other of the substrate. This cavity has all the characteristics o a cavity of the PEROT-FABRY-type and is thus the seat of an emission of coherent light when the diode is excited. Its horizontal dimension may be of s the order of 0.1 to 1 micron and the radiation (Fiy. 6) takes i~ place laterally in the direction indicated by the arrow. It has thus been possible to ~tilise a generally troublesome property o contacts made on composition of the Gal x Alx As-:J~
type.
Fig. 7 shows an electroluminescent diode which emits light at its upper surface, In this Fig, the band of GaA~ is in the form o a ring and the upper layer is transparent to the radiation emitted, the current being concentrated in the central part o the diode.
The invention ma~ be appLied in many other cases where there is a need or a dielectric, or example in planar tech-nologyj in which case the metal zone interface GA Al As acts as the dielectric.
