Distributed Current Low-Resistance Diamond Ohmic Contacts

In some embodiments, a semiconductor structure can include: a diamond substrate having a surface conductive layer; a heavily doped region formed in the diamond substrate; and a metal contact positioned over the conductive surface layer such that a first portion of the heavily doped region is covered by the metal contact and a second portion of the heavily doped region is not covered by the metal contact.
