Abstract
Thermal oxidation of indium phosphide in the presence of cerium(III) c hloride was studied by ultrasoft x-ray and IR absorption spectroscopic measurements. The resultant oxide films are found to contain In2O3, I nPO4, and phosphorus. The accelerated formation of indium phosphate is due to reaction of the InP substrate with the CeO2 forming during the preparation of the additive. The films contain small amounts of ceriu m and exhibit low dielectric strength.
