Abstract
The effect of Ar+ (400 keV) and Xe++ (700 keV) bombardment and consecutive annealing (250–525 °C for 10 min in forming gas) on the electrical behaviour of n-type Au/GaAs Schottky junctions are studied. The obtained anomalous I–V and C-V characteristics are treated in comparison with the formation of crystal defects, the growth of different grains and the phase transitions observed by cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy.
