摘要
A comparative study for the pristine and sulfur passivated surfaces of gallium antimonide (GaSb) grown using molecular beam epitaxy is presented with the results recorded through X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) techniques. The as-grown GaSb surfaces were treated separately with 20% aqueous ammonium sulphide, ((NH4)(2)S), at 60 degrees C for 10 m, aqueous sodium sulfide nonahydrate (Na2S center dot 9H(2)O) with molarity 1 for 4 m at room temperature and base- thioacetamide (base-TAM) with molarity 0.18 for 40 m at 70 degrees C. AFM topography shows the formation of very clean and flat surface for base- TAM treated GaSb. XPS results reveal lowest concentration of Ga(2)O(3)for GaSb surface treated with base-TAM.
