Abstract(in English) Si(111) flattened by NH_4F treatment has been exposed in air, and the surface has been observed by Atomic Force Microscopy(AFM). Atomic bondings have been theoretically analyzed by Molecular Orbital Method. The AFM observation shows that native oxidation in air is sensitive to H_2O and the reaction of H_2O with Si is different from that of O_2, and Molecular Orbital Analysis supports this behavior. Moreover for the Si exposed for 180 min, tunneling current through the oxide film is measured by I-V measurements with AFM using conductive cantilever and fitted well with theoretical curve analyzed by tunneling through SiO_2.
