The Electronic and Atomic Structure of Diamond Surface and Effects of Hydrogen Termination

Abstract

The electronic and atomic structure of the diamond (111) surface and the effects of hydrogen termination are studied using photoemission, photon stimulated desorption, low energy electron diffraction, and Auger electron spectroscopy. Hydrogen termination results in a 1 x 1 surface with no filled surface states in or near the band gap region. A high temperature anneal (approx. 1000 degrees C) removes the hydrogen and results in a 2 x 2/2 x 1 surface structure. (Author)
