Marked Reduction of the Surface/Interface States of GaAs by (NH4)2Sx Treatment

Abstract
MIS capacitors have been fabricated on (NH4)2S x -treated GaAs using a SiO x insulator prepared by conventional resistive-heating evaporation. The MIS interface state density was found to be about 1.2×1011 cm-2·eV-1 in a wide range of the band gap, which is two orders of magnitude less than that on the as-etched GaAs.
