Popis: | Fine (oscillating) structure (FS) in the elastically scattered electron spectra (ESES) [O. Bondarchuk, S. Goysa, I. Koval, P. Melnik, M. Nakhodkin, Surf. Sci. 258 (1991) 239; O. Bondarchuk, S. Goysa, I. Koval, P. Melnik, M. Nakhodkin, Surf. Rev. Lett. 4 (1997) 965] was used to investigate surface structure of the SiO x (0 ≤ x ≤ 2). SiO x surface with different stoichiometry was prepared by implantation of 500 eV oxygen ions into a silicon wafer. Fourier transformation of the FS ESES contains one peak at 2.32 A for Si, two peaks at 1.62 A and 2.65 A for a-SiO 2 and three peaks centered at 1.6–1.7 A, 2.1–2.2 A and 2.65–3.04 A for SiO x . Peaks at 1.62 A and 2.65 A are assigned to Si–O and O–O nearest distances correspondently. Ratio of the area under the peak at 2.65 A to the area under the peak at 1.62 A turned out to be not constant but grows linearly with the composition parameter x . The latter is considered to prove validity of the Random Bond Model to describe short-range order on the surface of non-stoichiometric silicon oxide. |
