The oxidation of clean crystalline silicon surfaces is self-limiting at moderate oxygen pressures (10 −5 Pa) and temperatures (500°C), forming 0.7–0.8nm thick oxide layers. This study looks at the oxidation of a surface of a thin amorphous silicon film to establish if a similar mechanism is active in this case. We have devised a special experimental procedure to check the oxidation mechanism...
