    摘要: A compact connection structure between two electrodes made of two types of metals, i.e., metals which respectively make Schottky and ohmic contact with a semiconductor, is provided by using a high melting point metal or silicide thereof which makes Schottky contact with the semiconductor as one electrode metal. The two types of electrodes can be brought into direct contact with each other, enabling elimination of through hole connections between them and therefore increased semiconductor device density.

    摘要: Disclosed herein is a structure and process for a self-aligned metal semiconductor field effect transistor having the characteristics of a high speed, high density, low power LSI circuit and specifically an improved high device gain MESFET device using conventional photographic techniques. The inventive MESFET device has improved high device gain as a result of the elimination of series resistance, increased circuit integration density, and improved speed capability due to the elimination of spacings between gate and drain and gate and source and the improved high device gain.CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
