摘要
The effect of nitridation of GaAs(100) by hydrazine sulfide solutions on the surface recombination velocity and surface barrier has been studied using photoluminescence and photoreflectance spectroscopies. Nitridation produces a decrease of surface recombination velocity by a factor of 26. After three years of air exposure, the recombination velocity is still smaller than for the naturally oxidized surface by a factor of 11. The observed effect is caused by a continuous nitride monolayer bonded with the GaAs substrate. The surface Fermi level is still pinned near midgap, which is attributed to residual unpassivated surface defects.
