Description

Growth of epitaxial gold silicide islands (triangular, trapezoidal) over a thin uniform layer of gold silicide have been observed, when an Au thin film (740 A) deposited on Br-passivated Si(111) surface, was annealed around the Au-Si eutectic temperature under high vacuum (∼10-6 Torr). The general features of the growth of these islands are comparable to those obtained under ultra high vacuum conditions. Here we present some of the results on such structures using the micro ion-beam facility in State University of New York at Albany
