摘要
A GaAs tunnel junction is formed by molecular beam epitaxy at low substrate temperatures to incorporate excess arsenic, followed by an anneal to precipitate the excess arsenic. This tunnel junction is comparable in resistance and peak current density to tunnel junctions grown stoichiometrically. Owing to the inhomogeneity in this two-phase tunnel junction, there is only a slight indication of a current peak. This lack of a valley in the tunnelling characteristic results in a low voltage drop even for currents in excess of the peak current.
