Ohmic Contacts With Ultra-Low Optical Loss on Heavily Doped n-Type InGaAs and InGaAsP for InP-Based Photonic Membranes

In this paper, we present significant reductions of optical losses and contact resistances in AgGe-based ohmic contacts to InP membranes. Due to the high solubility of Si in InGaAs and InGaAsP, heavily doped n-type contact layers are grown on InP wafers. This high doping concentration gives rise to...
