Abstract

This study introduces a method for creating Ohmic contacts to tin oxide (SnO2) by subjecting the sample surface to hydrogen plasma treatment at moderate temperatures of about 300 °C. This process generates a surface layer of metallic tin droplets, forming suitable electrical contacts. The contacts exhibit remarkable durability and demonstrate Ohmic behavior down to liquid helium temperatures.
