The diffraction peaks of Cu–Ta nanolaminates are mainly located at 33.8° and 43.3°, corresponding to β -Ta (002) and α -Cu (111), respectively. Besides, a halo peak appears at 2θ ≈ 38.9°, indicating the formation of an amorphous structure (A1). The intensity of both β -Ta and α -Cu decreases progressively as the decreasing of λ.

Here, we demonstrate a new process to fabricate tensily strained Si On Insulator substrates (sSOI). The process is based on the epitaxial growth of Si 1-x Ge x on SOI substrate, the partial amorphization and crystallization of the Si/Si 1-x Ge x bilayers and the selective removal of the top Si 1-x Ge x film. Si tensile stress higher than 1.4 …
In state-of-the-art FinFETs, Ge pre-amorphization implantation (Ge PAI) has been widely employed into TiSi x-based contacts to successfully achieve extremely low ρ c, 15,16) which has the benefits of point defect annihilation, silicidation enhancement and smooth interface. 17–20) In this work, the Co/Co-Ti/n +-Si contacts with and without Ge ...
Studies have shown that the crystallization phase state of Ge 2 Sb 2 Te 5 (GST) can be reversibly modulated by femtosecond (fs) laser multiple pulses, which have excellent applications in reconfigurable multi-level operation fields. In this study, the temporal-spatial crystalline evolution dynamics of amorphous GST film is investigated …
The amorphization process has been explained by different models, and most of the theoretical treatments utilize a thermal spike model (i.e. a hot region around the ion trajectory containing a high concentration of excited electron carriers), which relies on local melting of the material caused by superheating in the thermal spike [11–16]. It ...
8-inch p-type (100) silicon wafers with 10–12 Ω-cm resistivity were used as the starting material. All wafers were implanted by phosphorus (P) at 8 keV to a dosage of 3 × 10 15 cm −2, followed by dopant activation using 1050°C spike annealing.Afterwards, Ge PAI at 6 different conditions shown in Table I was employed in order to amorphize the …
With a specific electrochemical capacity of 3579 mAh g Si −1, silicon is a promising candidate for next generation Li-ion batteries, as it exceeds the capacity of commonly used graphite by a factor of 10. 1,2 However, large volume changes upon (de-)alloying up to ∼300 % lead to mechanical stress in the active material resulting in …
Abstract. The nanoinstability of a single crystal Si nanowire under electron beam irradiation was in situ investigated at room temperature by the transmission electron microscopy technique. It was observed that the Si nanowire amorphized preferentially from the surface towards the center, with the increasing of the electron dose.

The potential increase in amorphization E * is set to be 0.15 V, corresponding to a surface energy gap of 0.3225 eV/atom.

Phase-change memory (PCM) is a key enabling technology for non-volatile electrical data storage at the nanometer scale. A PCM device consists of a small active volume of phase-change material sandwiched between two electrodes. In PCM, data is stored by using the electrical resistance contrast between a high-conductive crystalline …

In this work, the effects of Ge pre-amorphization implantation (PAI) on forming ultrathin TiGe x films at 350–600 °C are explored. It is found that the Ge PAI indeed enhances the formation of TiGe x at relatively low temperature, as confirmed by the lower sheet resistance and thicker TiGe x films compared to the case without Ge PAI. The …
Abstract. The trend of miniaturization has highlighted the problems of heat dissipation and electromigration in nanoelectronic device interconnects, but not amorphization. While amorphization is known to be a high pressure and/or temperature phenomenon, we argue that defect density is the key factor, while temperature and …

5. Conclusions. We have shown that FTIR spectroscopy can be used to follow the damage induced in (1 0 0) 3C–SiC thin epitaxial films on a (1 0 0) Si substrate by heavy ion irradiations (2.3 MeV 28 Si + and 3.0 MeV 84 Kr + ). The whole layers were damaged homogeneously, whereas ions were implanted in the Si substrates.
