摘要
Scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) was used in this work in order to study the surface quality of Lead Telluride (PbTe), n-type, epitaxial layers, grown directly over single crystal Silicon (Si) p-type wafers. The n-PbTe/p-Si heterojunction is used as thermal infrared (IR) detector, which work at room temperature. Besides the epilayers quality, it was also planned, to improve the cleaning Si surface procedure, decide which substrate resistivity is more appropriated and at what thickness the epilayers absorb more infrared radiation.
