n- and p-type ohmic contacts at monolayer gallium nitride–metal interfaces
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Recently, two-dimensional (2D) gallium nitride (GaN) was experimentally fabricated, and has promising applications in next-generation electronic and optoelectronic devices. A direct contact with metals to inject the carrier is often required for potential 2D GaN devices. Herein, the first systematic study on the interface properties of monolayer (ML) planar and buckled GaN with different metal electrodes (Al, Ti, Ag, Au, Sc, and Pt) in a field-effect transistor framework is presented using first-principles energy band calculations and quantum transport simulations. Because of moderate Fermi level pinning (electron pinning factor S = 0.63), ML planar GaN and the Ag electrode form an n-type lateral Schottky contact, while ML planar GaN and Ti, Al, and Au electrodes form a p-type lateral Schottky contact. The ML buckled GaN, Ag, Al, Ti, and Sc electrodes form a p-type lateral Schottky contact as a result of Fermi level pinning with a hole pinning factor of S = 0.75. Notably, a highly desirable n-type/p-type lateral ohmic contact is formed at the lateral interface of the ML planar GaN and Sc/Pt electrodes, and a p-type lateral ohmic contact is formed at the lateral interface of the ML buckled GaN and Pt/Au electrodes. Therefore, a low resistance contact can be realized in ML planar and buckled GaN devices.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
