摘要
We used scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy to examine Si-clusterlike defects which were created by a scanning-probe-induced process around the intrinsic defects in a thermally grown SiO2 film on Si. We compared these defects with Si clusters deposited on ultrathin Si oxide. Two types of defects were recognized, which have energy gaps at around 3.8 and 2.5 eV. We proposed that these two types of defects correspond to inner and surface damage on SiO2 film.
