Abstract

A novel method of making a semiconductor device that comprises p-type III-V semiconductor material is disclosed. The method comprises heating of a graphite body such that the body serves as a sublimation source of carbon atoms that are incorporated into the III-V semiconductor material. Exemplarily, the carbon doped material is the base of a GaAs-based HBT.
