Abstract

An ultra high vacuum system has been designed and constructed for the purpose of depositing high-quality oxide films on well-characterized crystal surfaces at low temperatures. In particular, aluminum phosphorus oxide films have been deposited on both In P and Ge surfaces for the purpose of device application. Electrical measurements of metal-oxide-semiconductor structures show much improved interfacial properties with little or no hysteresis.
