Abstract

1,181,330. Field-effect transistors. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP. 16 Aug., 1968 [25 Aug., 1967], No. 39219/68. Heading H1K. Field-effect transistors are made in high resistivity gallium arsenide substrates, the channels being formed by heating the substrates in vacuo until a thin N-type surface layer is formed. It is believed that the N-type layer is formed by out-diffusion of chromium to leave uncompensated donors. Formation of the layer is influenced by the presence of a silica coating; with thick silica the layer is not formed. Embodiments described are Schottkygate-FET, JUGFET and IGFET. Channel limiting may be achieved by P-type diffusion, by mesa-etching, or by leaving a thick silica ring during manufacture so that a zone of the original high resistivity material terminates the channel. The silica used may contain phosphorus pentoxide. The oxide may be removed in the gate area of an IGFET and replaced by silicon nitride. Ohmic contact materials for the GaAs are Au-Te, Ag-Te and Sn. Schottky barrier materials are Au, Cr, Ni and Mo. Isolation rings and junction gates may be formed by Zn diffusion (from an arsenide source). Ohmic contents to P-type zones use Au-Mg or Ag-Mg. Mesa-etching uses warm dilute NaOCl.
