Abstract

The invention discloses a diamond material ohmic contact electrode. The diamond material ohmic contact electrode comprises a diode material base of which the surface is provided with an ohmic contact electrode body; the ohmic contact electrode body comprises three metal electrode layers; the first electrode layer in contact with the diamond material base is a Pd metal layer; the second electrode layer in the middle is a metal layer with poor mutual dispersion performance; the third electrode layer far away from the diamond material base is a chemical inert metal layer. With the adoption of the ohmic contact electrode, the specific contact resistance rate can be effectively reduced, the adhering performance of the metal to the diamond material can be improved, and the thermal stability is improved, so that the electrical performance of an electronic element is improved. According to the preparation method and the electronic element employing the ohmic contact electrode structure and the preparation method, the specific contact resistance rate can be effectively reduced, the thermal and chemical stability of the ohmic contact are improved, and the electrical performance of the electronic element can be improved.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of diamond chemical vapor deposition, and relates to a diamond material ohmic contact electrode and a preparation method and application thereof. Background technique

[0002] Semiconductor single crystal materials have gone through four generations of development. The first generation of Si and Ge semiconductors brought mankind into the information age, and at the same time drove the intelligence and informatization of electronic systems. The second-generation semiconductors (GaAs, InP, MCT, etc.) have brought us optoelectronic devices, power electronic devices, radio frequency electronic devices, and space radiation-resistant devices, etc., which have triggered revolutions in information fields such as wireless communications and optical communications. The third-generation wide-bandgap semiconductors (GaN, SiC) can partially meet the requirements of the new generation of electronic systems for semiconduc...
