ABSTRACT: Development of novel functional devices has been expected by modification
for Si surface. This study investigated immobilization and roles of the Si
surface with flowing surfactant by in situ ATR-FTIR method. This result
suggested that the surfactant prevented oxidation of the hydrogen-terminated Si
surface from the higher concentration in aqueous solution. These would guard
the Si surface against H2O molecules.
