Chemical reactions at the interfaces of semiconductors and catalysts with solutions: I. Tin-palladium catalysts in electroless copper plating. II. Dissolution of crystalline gallium-arsenide in solutions containing complexing agents.Pierson, Bruce Gregory. January 1989 (has links)
The concentration of tin and palladium in catalysts used in electroless copper plating have been determined by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry with high energy (2-5) MeV ⁴He⁺. The tin:palladium ratio in the catalyst decreases when exposed to an alkaline solution. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy has confirmed this result and has shown the palladium in the catalyst is present as palladium metal and the tin is present, probably as an oxidized species, to a depth of about 30 Å. Catalysts for the electroless plating of copper are obtained by the reaction of Pd(II) and Sn(II). The extent of the reaction and the concentrations of the reaction products depend on the solution conditions. Conflicting results obtained in previous investigations of tin-palladium catalysts can be explained on this basis. Single crystals of gallium arsenide (GaAs(100)) were found to dissolve in synthetic lung fluid (Gamble solution). The concentrations of arsenic and gallium in the Gamble solution as well as the arsenic:gallium ratio on the GaAs surface increased continuously as the time of exposure to the Gamble solution increased. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic studies of the gallium arsenide surface showed that arsenic migrated to the surface and it was oxidized to a species resembling As₂O₃ and finally solubilized by the Gamble solution. The solubility of gallium was governed primarily by the formation of stable complexes with the citrate and phosphate ions in the Gamble solution. Zinc that was present in the single crystals of gallium arsenide also migrated to the surface.

Growth, fabrication and testing of pseudomorphic P-channel GaAs/InGaAs/AlGaAs MODFETSSchulte, Donald W. 14 August 1992 (has links)
This thesis reports on the growth and characterization of p-type
pseudomorphic A1GaAs /InGaAs /GaAs modulation doped field effect transistor
(MODFET) structures. A series of different p-type MODFET structures were grown
with a systematic variation of the indium mole fraction and quantum well width of
the InGaAs channel region. Extensive characterization of these samples using van
der Pauw Hall and photoluminescence measurements showed clear trends in carrier
mobility and quantum well quality with respect to the structure of the InGaAs region.
From this an optimal indium mole fraction and quantum well width were obtained.
Subsequent to material characterization, MODFET devices were fabricated
and characterized. The measured DC device performance was reasonable and
suggests that high quality p-type MODFETS should be obtainable with a properly
optimized device structure and fabrication process. / Graduation date: 1993
