Abstract

Room-temperature, optically-induced oxidation of the gallium arsenide surface has been studied with laser radiation of different wavelengths. It was found that deep-ultraviolet light is much more effective in enhancing oxidation than near-ultraviolet or visible light. The growth rate of the oxide was also found to be drastically increased by the presence of chemisorbed water molecules on the surface.
