Deposition of high-K oxides on silicon unavoidably results in the presence of an interfacial SiO2 layer. In order to remedy to this problem, a covalently grafted organic monolayer on silicon could be used as an ultrathin buffer layer between silicon and the oxide layer, thus avoiding the formation of a SiO2 layer. This work demonstrates, in a first part, that mixed carboxyl-terminated/methyl-terminated alkyl monolayers can be obtained in one step on Si(111)-H via photochemical hydrosilylation of undecylenic acid and decene mixtures. The compositional surface chemistry was determined from a quantitative IR study. Results prove that neither surface oxidation nor grafting through the carboxyl end group occurs. Careful analysis reveals that the...
