Popis: X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy and ion scattering spectroscopy studies of HF‐treated silicon surfaces are described in an effort to understand the chemical termination leading to the near ideal electrical passivation of such surfaces. Results suggest a fluorine surface density of order a monolayer chemically bonded to silicon with a partial oxygen contamination due to exposure of the HF‐treated wafer to air, and a physisorbed hydrocarbon layer on top.
