Abstract

1,236,689. Semi-conductor devices. NIPPON ELECTRIC CO. Ltd. 9 May, 1969 [16 May, 1968], No. 23853/69. Heading H1K. In a Gunn-effect device destructive heat development adjacent the anode is prevented by providing a greater cross-section of semiconductor material adjacent the anode than elsewhere in the active region of the device. In Fig. 3 this is achieved by etching a groove in a N-type GaAs layer 13 on a semi-insulating GaAs substrate 12 between the two Au/Ce/Ni electrodes 14, 15. In Fig. 4 the same effect is obtained by etching an N-type GaAs layer of uniform thickness to leave a T-shaped portion 17 between the electrodes 18, 19. The increased cross-section may be provided adjacent both electrodes. A prior art arrangement is described in which N+ + GaAs regions (8, 9), Fig. 2 (not shown), are selectively grown by liquid phase regrowth at each end of an N-type region (6) covered with a SiO 2 layer (7). Metal electrodes (10, 11) are then positioned on the N+ + regions (8, 9).
