The surface chemistry of heavily-doped Si treated in a hydrofluoric acid (HF) solution is evaluated using contact angle measurements. The saturated contact angles of H2O on hydrophobic Si surfaces are affected by conduction types and dopant concentrations. Boron-doped surfaces show smaller contact angles, which corresponds to the larger polar-force interaction energy, than phosphorous-doped surfaces. The polar-force interaction is due to the hydrogen bondings between Si–OH bonds, which replace Si–F bonds through hydrolysis reaction in the HF solution, and H2O molecules. In addition, a marked difference in the hydrogen termination process can be observed, depending on the surface orientation, during the dip in extremely dilute HF solution.
