GaAs-oxide removal using an electron cyclotron resonance hydrogen plasma

View publication

Abstract

The surface chemistry of GaAs-oxide removal with an electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) hydrogen plasma has been investigated with x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It is found that As oxide is efficiently removed at room temperature, and heating expedites the removal of Ga oxide. Band bending changes during ECR hydrogen-plasma oxide reduction are also discussed.
