Abstract

High quality GaAs/SiO2 MIS( Metal Insulator Semiconductor ) diodes were fabricated using (NH4)2S treatment and photo-assisted CVD( Chemical Vapor Deposition ). The density of states at the GaAs and SiO2 interface is the order of 1011 cm-2eV-1 throughout the forbidden energy range, which is smaller by the order of two than that of the MIS devices made by the conventional CVD process. The mechanism attributable to the interface improvement was investigated through XPS( X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy ) analyses.
