[20p-B12-9] 表面活性化接合で作成したSi/GaAs界面の低温FIB法による断面TEM評価
キーワード:常温接合、低温FIB
Surface-activated bonding (SAB) at room temperature (RT) is applied to form Si/GaAs hetero-interfaces with a low interface electrical resistance, and high-efficiency InGaP/GaAs/Si triple-junction cells are demonstrated. We have recently clarified that the structural and compositional properties of semiconductor homo-interfaces fabricated by SAB are modified during FIB processes operated at RT, and such a modification can be suppressed by FIB processes operated at -150 oC. In the present work, we have therefore examined the atomic arrangement and composition at Si/GaAs hetero-interfaces fabricated by SAB using X-TEM specimens fabricated by FIB milling operated at -150 oC.
