摘要
A new process for chemical passivation of III-V semiconductor surfaces in metalorganic vapour phase epitaxy (MOVPE) is developed. A passivation layer is deposited directly after growth in the reactor. It consists of amorphous arsenic or a double-layer package of amorphous phosphorus and arsenic, which are grown by photo-decomposition of the group-V hydrides. These layers (caps) serve to protect the surfaces against contamination in air after removing the samples from the MOVPE growth reactor. Such passivation is applicable e.g. for a two-step epitaxy or for further surface characterizations.
