Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to apply electric voltage to the interface between the metals and semiconductors, supports of TEM samples composed of an alumina plate and titanium foils was fabricated. Samples including the interface between the metals and semiconductors were fixed on the edge of the supports. We developed TEM sample preparation technique with uniform thickness and no damage, and electrical wiring technique applying electrical voltage to the interface between the metals and the semiconductors. Current-voltage characteristics were measured from the above TEM samples applying the forward bias or reversed bias. The relationships between the applying voltages and the thickness of depletion layers could be clarified using electron holography, which could indicate the potential distribution in the semiconductors at the vicinity of the metals interface.
