Abstract

We review structural and electronic aspects of the reaction of hydrogen with semiconductor surfaces. Among others, we address the Si(100), GexSi1-x(100), GaAs(100), InP(100), SiC(100), SiC(0001) and SiC(0001) surfaces. It is demonstrated that high resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS) in conjunction with a number of other surface sensitive techniques like low energy electron diffraction (LEED) and photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS/UPS) can yield important information about the surface atomic structure, the effects of hydrogen passivation and etching and on electronic properties of the surfaces.
