FORMATION OF OHMIC CONTACTS ON WIDE BAND GAP SEMICONDUCTORS

Systems and methods for semiconductor wafer processing include irradiating a surface of a semiconductor wafer with a laser beam of sufficient energy to alter a band gap of semiconductor material thereby melting a portion of the wafer to generate a graphitic layer area. A metal layer is then depositi...

Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods for semiconductor wafer processing include irradiating a surface of a semiconductor wafer with a laser beam of sufficient energy to alter a band gap of semiconductor material thereby melting a portion of the wafer to generate a graphitic layer area. A metal layer is then depositing on the surface to create ohmic contacts at the area that where melted by the laser.
