Abstract
The effect of Si (100) surface S passivation was investigated. A thick film with a high roughness value was formed on the Si surface treated by (NH4)2S solution, which was attributed to physical adsorption of S atoms. SEM and XPS analyses reveal that Si surface atoms were chemically bonded with S atoms after Si surface treatment in NH4OH and (NH4)2S mixing solution. This induces a more ideal value for the Schottky barrier height compared with a diode treated only by HF solution, indicating that surface states originating from dangling bonds are passivated with S atoms. -
