The growth of high‐performance Mg‐doped p‐type Al x Ga 1– x N ( x = 0.35) layers using low‐pressure metalorganic chemical vapour deposition on an AlN/sapphire template is reported. The influence of growth conditions on the p‐type conductivity of the Al x Ga 1– x N ( x = 0.35) alloy was investigated. It was found that the p‐type resistivity of the AlGaN alloy demonstrates a marked dependence on the Mg concentration, V/III ratio and group III element flow rate. A minimum p‐type resistivity of 3.5 Ω cm for Al x Ga 1– x N ( x = 0.35) epilayers was achieved. A Ni/Au (10 nm/100 nm) ohmic contact was also fabricated and a specific contact resistivity of 8.1 × 10 –2 Ω cm 2 was measured. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
