CoSi2Precipitate Coarsening During Formation of Buried Epitaxial Cosi2Layers By Ion Beam Synthesis

View through CrossRef
AbstractThe coarsening of CoSi2precipitates and the microstructural evolution of (111) Si implanted with 200 keV Co+ions at 350°C and fluences of 1×1016cm−2and 6×1016cm−2were investigated as a function of depth, annealing temperature and annealing time using Rutherford Backscattering Spectroscopy (RBS) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). After annealing cross-section TEM micrographs show a layered array of platelet-shaped precipitates with preferred facets on {111} planes. The fraction of Co-atoms, that were redistributed during the different annealing temperatures and times, has been used to determine an activation energy for the precipitate coarsening. By applying the Meechan-Brinkman and the change-of-slope methods, we obtained activation energies in the range of 3.2 – 3.6 eV.
