Abstract

917,727. Semi-conductor devices. SIEMENS & HALSKE A.G. Nov. 11, 1960 [Nov. 13, 1959], No. 38837/60. Class 37. In the manufacture of a semi-conductor device having a PN junction an aluminium body is provided with a metal coating to prevent oxidation, is alloyed with a metallic substance capable of wetting the semi-conductor, and is thereafter alloyed into the semi-conductor. The metallic substance may be the same material as the coating, and may consist of indium, tin or lead. In one embodiment (Fig. 1), germanium wafer 1 is placed in a mould 5, indium pellet 2 is placed on its surface, and the indium and germanium are then alloyed by heating. An aluminium disc is coated by immersion in liquid indium at 350‹ C., using an alcoholic solution of anhydrous stannous chloride as a flux. The coated disc 3 is then placed on the indium-covered area of the germanium and is alloyed therewith by heating in a hydrogen atmosphere. In a second embodiment (Fig. 2) an indium-coated aluminium disc 3 is alloyed with an indium pellet 2 at 600 ‹ to 640 ‹ C. in a hydrogen atmosphere so that the indium partly dissolves the aluminium. The A1/IN body is then tipped on to germanium wafer 1 at 300 ‹ to 400 ‹ C. and is alloyed therewith. After the germanium has been wetted by the indium the actual alloying may be carried out in a non-reducing atmosphere, e.g. nitrogen, or nitrogen and oxygen. The percentage of aluminium in the A1/IN alloy may be between 0.1 and 5% by weight. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 851,978.
