Abstract

A novel compound semiconductor MIS structure using an ultra-thin partially oxidized MBE Sifilm as a pseudomorphic interface control layer (ICL) is reported for GaAs and InGaAs. As an outer insulator layer, a silicon dioxide or silicon nitride film is deposited in-situ by a low-temperature photo-CVD process using an ArF excimer laser. While the GaAs MIS structure exhibited strong Fermilevel pinning, the InGaAs MIS structure showed completely “unpinned” behavior with avery small hysteresis after annealing. The difference is qualitatively explained by a band line-up of the constituent materials.
