Abstract :
Layers of CaF2 and BaF2 were grown on Si substrates using molecular beam epitaxy. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy has shown that the interface in Si-BaF2 structure at 750°C is mainly formed with Si-Ba bonds. Metal-insulator structures have been formed, and capacitance-voltage characteristics (C-V and G-V characteristics) were measured at various test voltage frequencies. Despite of the high density of broken bonds at the interface (about 1014 cm-2), the density of electronic states calculated from C-V and G-V characteristics was about 1011 eV-1cm-2.
