Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The detailed mechanism of thermal oxidation reaction was investigated using the self-stopping phenomenon of silicon wafer oxidation reaction to fabricate silicene (a thin film of one layer of silicon atoms) surrounded by an oxide film. The electronic properties of the material were also investigated by coating graphene, a monatomic layered material similar to silicene. As a result, it was found that the role of minority carriers in silicon wafers is important for the oxidation reaction. It was clarified that the increase in carrier density due to light irradiation or heating is an inhibitory factor for the self-stopping reaction.
