Description

Net-charge analysis, involving siladamantane moieties as local models of various surface silicon atoms, is used in combination with infrared spectroscopy to assign chemical species to the features observed in the x-ray photoelectron spectra from hydrogen-terminated (1 0 0) Si prepared by HFaq etching of the native oxide.
