Abstract InP(100) surface treated with (NH4)2Sx has been investigated by using photolumines-cence(PL), Auger electron spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, It is found that PL intensity increased by a factor of 3.3 after (NH4)2Sx passivation and the sulfur remained on the surface only bonded to indium, not to phosphorus. This suggests that the sulfur atoms replace the phosphorus atoms on the surface and occupy the phosphorus vacancies.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
