Abstract

Prior to depositing thin metal sulfide films by spraying aqueous solutions of thiocarbamide complexes of the corresponding metals onto heated silicon substrates, the semiconductor substrates were subjected to a pulsed magnetic field treatment. This additional processing considerably decreases hydrophobicity of the silicon wafer surface, thus favoring the subsequent formation of high-quality homogeneous sulfide films with good adhesion to the substrate.
