Abstract
A method of diffusion of dopants (e.g. zinc) into III-V substrates (e.g. GaAs) using metal silicide and dopants (e.g. W.sub.x Si.sub.y :Zn) is disclosed. A cap layer (e.g. SiO.sub.2 or Si.sub.3 N.sub.4) is also used. The zinc tungsten silicide is formed by cosputtering zinc and tungsten silicide (W.sub.5 Si.sub.3). Applications include adjustment of threshold voltages in JFETs by rapid thermal pulsing of zinc into device channel regions and use of the zinc tungsten silicide as a base contact plus extrinsic base dopant source together with a nitride sidewall self-alignment.
