III-V semiconductor core-shell nanowires are promising for high electron mobility transistors and one-dimensional electron transport, which can be integrated on a nanoscale platform. Core-shell heterostructures are typically designed so that electrons are confined inside the thin core, which is surrounded by a relatively thick undoped shell with wider bandgap. This makes it challenging to form ohmic contacts for the measurement of the electrical properties of the core or the fabrication of devices. Here, we present the contact engineering to GaAs:Si/AlxGa1-xAs core-shell nanowires using selective area ion-implantation of Sulphur. The properly chosen energy of the ion-implantation and selective area implantation allow precise control of the carrier concentration just below the metal contact. Such an approach provides electrical connection to the core nanowire without degrading the crystal structure of the entire nanowire. For electrical activation of implanted impurities we have used ms-range Flash lamp annealing and rapid thermal annealing. Detailed structure, optical and electrical characterization of the nanowires will be presented.
