Interpretation of the piezoelectric photothermal spectra of p-type silicon samples

This paper presents both experimental and theoretical amplitude and phase piezoelectric photothermal spectra (PPTS) of p-type silicon samples. two dominant peaks at 1.07 eV and 1.18 eV were observed in PPT spectra at room temperature. The relative intensities of these peaks change by...

description This paper presents both experimental and theoretical amplitude and phase piezoelectric photothermal spectra (PPTS) of p-type silicon samples. two dominant peaks at 1.07 eV and 1.18 eV were observed in PPT spectra at room temperature. The relative intensities of these peaks change by a surface treatment. Numerical analysis is performed by supposing that an inactive layer exists at the sample surface. The characteristic structure observed in the piezoelectric amplitude spectra of p-Si samples is well explained by the model proposed for multilayer structure. We found that the proposed inactive layer model is quite helpful in investigating the surface properties of a semiconductor material.
