The direct thermal nitridation of silicon by ammonia in a molecular‐beamepitaxial reactor is being reported. These films, which are subsequently thickened by low‐pressure chemical vapor deposition, exhibit extremely lowsurface state densities (∼1010/eV/cm2), which we attribute to extremely low interfacial oxygen contamination.
