Реферат | Investigations of the electronic structure in the surface layers of single crystal silicon plates exposed to low energy ion−beam treatment in hydrogen and argon as well as a structural study of these layers have been carried out using ultrasoft X−ray spectroscopy (including synchrotron irradiation) and spectral ellipsometry techniques. We show that the treatment produces surface layers of silicon oxide with thicknesses greater than those of natural silicon oxide. The several nanometers thick surface layers contain disordered (amorphous) elementary silicon. We suppose that clustering of the surface layers can occur as a result of the plasma treatment. |
Ключевые слова | Electronic structure, silicon, plasma treatment, ultrasoft X−ray spectroscopy, ellipsometry. |
