Popis: | The first in situ Hall measurements of the ordered chromium surface phases on Si(111) substrate and CrSi(111) epitaxial films after their formation are presented. Formation of Si (111)-(1× 1)- Cr (0.1 nm Cr) and Si(111)-[([Formula: see text])/30°]-Cr (0.3 nm Cr) surface phases results in an increase in the sheet resistivity of Si(111)-Cr surface phase samples. The conductivities along the surface phases at these chromium thicknesses are very low. The conductivity decrease is caused by a decrease in the electron mobility in the surface phase layers. Formation of an epitaxial CrSi(111) layer with averaged Hall parameters (hole mobility of 440 cm 2· V -1· s -1, sheet resistivity of 2.2·104 Ω-1 and sheet hole concentration of 0.65·1012 cm -2) has been observed at 1.5–1.8 nm of chromium thickness. |
