Abstract: | We achieved electron beam (e-beam) patterning without a photoresist on a Cl-terminated Si(0 0 1) surface. Synchrotron radiation photoemission spectroscopy and scanning photoelectron microscopy were employed to investigate the surface chemical state and pattern formation. The Cl-Si bonds were easily broken by the irradiation with an e-beam of 1 keV, leading to a pattern formation through the adsorption of residual molecules of water and hydrocarbon at the exposed Si dangling bond sites. In addition, we demonstrated the selective adsorption of desired molecules on the surface by e-beam irradiation in environments consisting of different gases, such as oxygen, ammonia, and 1-butanethiol. |
