Abstract
IR and ultrasoft x-ray emission spectroscopy data indicate that the thermal oxidation of PbO/InP structures with additions of transition-metal (nickel and vanadium) oxides leads to the formation of multicomponent layers consisting of nickel, vanadium, lead, and indium phosphates. These oxide additions to PbO nanolayers accelerate the thermal oxidation of InP. A small amount of vanadium oxide added to PbO gives rise to a significant contribution of a catalytic mechanism to the accelerated thermal oxidation of InP. The principal distinction between the PbO/InP and (PbO + NiO)/InP structures is that the thermal oxidation of the latter leads to the formation of an InxNiyPz transition layer, which influences the growth rate and the composition of the resulting layer.
