| 内容記述 | The surface and interface properties of Pd(sub 0.9)Cr(sub 0.1/SiC Schottky diode gas sensor both before and after annealing are investigated using Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS). At room temperature the alloy reacted with SiC and formed Pd(sub x)Si only in a very narrow interfacial region. After annealing for 250 hours at 425 deg. C, the surface of the Schottky contact area has much less silicon and carbon contamination than that found on the surface of an annealed Pd/SiC structure. Pd(sub x)Si formed at a broadened interface after annealing, but a significant layer of alloy film is still free of silicon and carbon. The chromium concentration with respect to palladium is quite uniform down to the deep interface region. A stable catalytic surface and a clean layer of Pd(sub 0.9)Cr(sub 0.1) film are likely responsible for significantly improved device sensitivity. |
