摘要
Annealing of interfaces between SiO2 and (111)Si, (100)Si in H-2 in the temperature range 450-800 degrees C is found to introduce a considerable density (up to 10(13) cm(-2)) of positively charged centres. There is no comparable density of dangling bonds initially present nor generated during the annealing at the Si/SiO2 interfaces or in the SiO2 layer that could account for the observed hydrogen bonding. Therefore, the hydrogen is suggested to be trapped in the positively charged valence alternation state 3-fold coordinated oxygen resembling the well known hydronium ion (H3O)(+).
