F. Wakaya et al., INTERFACE STATES INDUCED IN GAAS BY GROWTH INTERRUPTION DURING AN IN-SITU PROCESS, Journal of vacuum science & technology. B, Microelectronics and nanometer structures processing, measurement and phenomena, 16(4), 1998, pp. 2313-2316
Density and level of interface states are accompanied by growth interr
uption, which is inevitable in an in situ process using molecular beam
epitaxy (MBE). This MBE process coupled with focused ion beam systems
is investigated by means of the Hall measurements and capacitance-vol
tage measurements. The experimental results are compared to those of t
he self-consistent calculation. These results suggest that interface s
tates are located at a shallow level from the conduction band edge. (C
