Abstract
The surface composition of silicon films deposited from SiH4, Ar, and H-2 plasmas was studied using in situ attenuated total reflection Four ier transform infrared spectroscopy with emphasis on the effects of H- 2 dilution. In the absence of H-2, the surface is primarily covered wi th SiH3 and SiH2. With heavy H-2 dilution, the surface is predominantl y monohydride terminated with infrared absorption frequencies consiste nt with the presence of SiH on Si (100) and Si (111) surfaces.
