Dependence of solid-phase growth of beta-FeSi2 thin films on the crystal orientation of Si substrates has been investigated by using a-Fe (thickness: 20 nm)/c-Si(100), (110) and (111) stacked structures. X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements suggested that the substrate orientation dependence of the formation rate of beta-FeSi2 was as follows: (100)>(111)>(110). This dependence can be explained on the basis of the lattice mismatch between beta-FeSi2 and Si substrates, i.e., the lattice mismatch between beta-FeSi2(100) and Si(100), beta-FeSi2(110) or (101) and Si(111), and beta-FeSi2(010) or(001) and Si(110) of 1.4-2.0%, 5.3-5.5% and 9.2%, respectively. The substrate orientation dependence of solid-phase growth becomes relatively remarkable for very thin films. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
