Epitaxial Growth of CoSi 2 Layer on (100)Si Substrate using CoN x Interlayer deposited by Reactive Sputtering
E-mail:
A novel method was proposed to grow an epitaxial [Math Processing Error] on (100)Si substrate. A [Math Processing Error] interlayer was deposited by reactive sputtering of Co in an Ar+ [Math Processing Error] flow. From the Ti/Co/ [Math Processing Error] /Si structure, a uniform and thin [Math Processing Error] layer was epitaxially grown on (100)Si by annealing above [Math Processing Error] . Two amorphous layers were found at the [Math Processing Error] /Si interface, where the top layer has a silicon nitride (Si-N) bonding state with some Co content and the bottom layer has a Co-Si intermixing state. The SiNx amorphous layer seems to play a critical role of suppressing the diffusion of Co into Si substrate for the direct formation of epitaxial [Math Processing Error] .
