The resistance of laser-diffused diode links

Laser-diffused diode link (LDL) process makes possible a direct connection between devices at the substrate level, thus giving more flexibility to the overall system design. The electrical properties of these diode links are studied. Calculations based on a model for the resistance agree well with available experimental data. This model also provides physical insight on previously undetermined material properties such as the dopant diffusivity in the melt as a function of temperature.<
