Description

Ion-beam induced epitaxial crystallization (IBIEC) of amorphous NiSi2 and CoSi2 layers is demonstrated. Epitaxial metal silicide layers on (111) Si substrates were implanted with 40 keV Si ions to form amorphous surface layers. IBIEC of amorphous NiSi2 and CoSi2 layers was induced at 13--74 degrees C with 1.5 MeV Ne ion irradiation and proceeded in a layer-by-layer manner from the original amorphous/crystalline interface with activation energies of 0.26 ± 0.07 and 0.21 ± 0.06 eV for NiSi2 and CoSi2, respectively
