Abstract

We report on results of Auger electron spectroscopy and surface photo- voltage spectroscopy performed on a wide range of InP surfaces and metal interfaces, as well as Ar** plus bombarded, oxidized and chemically-treated surfaces. The spectroscopic tools enabled us to determine the origin of the significantly reduced surface recombination velocity reported on KAg(CN)** minus //2 - treated InP surfaces. This reduction which can increase the collection efficiency of InP-based PEC solar cells by about 500, is attributed to formation of a surface oxide layer which excludes ambient-induced recombination states.
