Abstract

MIS capacitors have been fabricated on (NH 4 ) 2 S x -treated GaAs using a SiO x insulator prepared by conventional resistive-heating evaporation. The MIS interface state density was found to be about 1.2×10 11 cm -2 ·eV -1 in a wide range of the band gap, which is two orders of magnitude less than that on the as-etched GaAs.
