Abstract

The invention relates to a germanium material surface stabilizing and passivating method. The method includes the steps that the surface of a germanium wafer is cleaned with different reagents, dirt and a surface oxidation layer on the surface of the germanium wafer are effectively removed, and the surface of the germanium wafer is preliminarily chlorinated; a mercaptan reagent is prepared through mixed liquid of ethyl alcohol and water and a self-assembled film is formed on the surface of the germanium wafer under the proper heating passivating condition. The method has the advantages that operation is simple, use is convenient, cost is low, and the passivating effect is obvious.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of surface treatment of germanium materials, in particular to a method for stable passivation of the surface of germanium materials. Background technique [0002] At present, electronic devices based on semiconductor materials have been rapidly developed in biosensing applications due to their high sensitivity and excellent selectivity. As a typical semiconductor material, silicon-based biosensors have been extensively studied. As a semiconductor material of the same family as silicon, germanium (Ge), compared with Si, the electron and hole mobility of Ge are 3 times and 4 times that of Si, respectively, and the band gap of Ge is much smaller than that of Si. Therefore, Ge as a channel material can realize high-mobility electronic devices, and is expected to be widely used in the field of high-performance biochemical sensors. However, as a semiconductor material discovered before Si, Ge does not form a stable surfac...
