文摘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.

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.
