摘要
The effects of atomic hydrogen irradiation on the surface cleaning of InP substrates have been investigated by reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) and Auger electron spectroscopy (AES). Carbon and oxygen-free clean surfaces of InP have been produced for a temperature range of as low as about 350-degrees-C for 30 min irradiation of atomic hydrogen. Under this condition, the RHEED patterns have revealed phosphorus-stabilized (2 x 4) reconstructed surfaces while indium-stabilized (4 x 2) reconstruction patterns have been observed upon cleaning by using the conventional arsenic irradiation at 530-degrees-C.
