We attempted to form a sharp and chemically stable oxynitride interface between HfO2 and a Si semiconductor substrate through the reaction of a NO molecular beam with a Hf-adsorbed Si(111) surface. By varying the initial amount of adsorbed Hf, a significant difference in the thickness of the interfacial oxynitride layer was observed. This is because, at Hf coverages below one monolayer, NO adsorption occurs only near metastable Hf adsorption sites.
