description Disclosed are methods for depositing multilayer ohmic contacts upon a substrate of semiconductor material disposed within a low pressure chamber; such including for example the particular features of upward sputtering of the various metal films, simultaneous sputtering of platinum with gold utilizing a sputtering cathode composed of platinum and gold, and adding hydrogen into an inert sputtering atmosphere to eliminate undesirable formation of oxides. This invention provides improved adhesion of the sputtered metal films to the semiconductor surface and the silicon oxide, and provides the formation of the metal film which is substantially free of pin holes and which has substantially uniform resistivity.
