Abstract

By forming a metallic coating on a sufficiently cleaned semiconductor substrate through ion plating, a low power loss and high switching speed semiconductor device is obtained which differs from an ordinary semiconductor device with a diffused junction. In an interface between the metallic coating and the semiconductor substrate, a considerably thin metal-injected layer is formed toward the semiconductor substrate. Schottky barrier devices may be formed by the method of the invention.
