摘要
The time dependent transition from hydrophobic to hydrophilic states of the metalorganic vapour phase epitaxy (MOVPE) grown InP, GaAs and InAs is systematically documented by contact angle measurements. Natural oxides forming on the surfaces of air-exposed materials, as well as the results of some typical wet chemical process to remove those oxides, were studied by X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS), revealing, surprisingly, a fundamental lack of strong correlations between the surface oxide composition and the reported systematic changes in hydrophobicity.
