Abstract
A relationship has been observed between the density of triangular etch pits on (1010) faces of some single-crystal samples of CdS and the relative difficulty encountered in making indium-diffused ohmic contacts to these specimens. Various workers have observed a relationship between etch-pit and dislocation densities in CdS. The results suggest that the important diffusion mechanism in making contacts is by diffusion into dislocations.
