ABSTRACT:
A method is described for producing an electronically passivated stable surface on silicon wafers. The passivation technique consists of first fluorinating the surface of a crystalline silicon wafer under inert atmospheric conditions. Such a treatment may consist of either a vapor phase or liquid phase application of HF at room temperature. The surface fluorinated wafer is then maintained in an inert atmosphere and a thin coating of an organic solid is applied to the wafer which does not disturb the underlying passivated silicon surface. The wafer may then be further processed into a variety of different devices.
