Ohmic contacts of Au and Ag metals to n-type GdN thin films

The rare-earth nitrides appear as attractive alternatives to dilute ferromagnetic semiconductors for spintronics device applications. Most of them combine the properties of the ferromagnet and the semiconductor, an exceedingly rare combination. In this work we have grown n-type polycrystalline semic...
