This study analyzed the electronic properties of methyl-terminated germanane (GeCH3) flakes using surface photovoltage spectroscopy (SPS). Previous studies showed GeCH3 has a p-type response and band gap of 1.7 eV. The SPS data in this study showed GeCH3 surfaces can exhibit both p-type and n-type character, and humidity and oxidation can affect the results. The findings have implications for relating SPS features to sample structure to synthesize materials without defects. The study of defects in 2D GeCH3 is important because it is a direct bandgap semiconductor with applications in optoelectronics.
