Abstract
We have used coaxial impact-collision ion scattering spectroscopy (CAICISS) and time-of-flight elastic recoil detection analysis (TOF-ERDA) to investigate the adsorption of atomic hydrogen on the 6H-SiC(0 0 0 1)√3×√3 surface. It has been found that the saturation coverage of hydrogen on the 6H-SiC(0 0 0 1)√3×√3 surface is about 1.7 ML. Upon saturated adsorption of atomic hydrogen, the √3×√3 surface structure changes to the 1×1 structure. The data of the CAICISS measurements have indicated that as a result of the hydrogen adsorption, Si adatoms on the √3×√3 surface move from T 4 to on-top sites.
