摘要
The composition of {0001} surfaces of 6H-SiC samples was studied by using low-energy electron diffraction, Auger electron (AES), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS/SXPS). The samples were cleaned in ultrahigh vacuum by heating them either in the presence of a Si flux at different temperatures or by annealing at 1170 K for 10 min. Depending on the preparation method and temperature used four reconstructions were observed: (1x1), (3x3), (root 3x root 3)R30 degrees, and (6 root 3x6 root 3)R30 degrees. The compositions of the reconstructions and the chemical bonding of the surface atoms were characterized using AES and XPS/SXPS. Models for the reconstructions are proposed.
