The Epitactic Growth of Oxides on Si
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 February 2011
Abstract
The epitactic growth of oxides on Si requires structural and chemical compatibility between the substrate and film. The growth of (Ba0.7,Sr0.3)TiO3 (BST) by pulsed laser deposition on HF-cleaned Si (001) and Si with a buffer layer of CaF2 was studied. The BST can form a low misfit interface with Si and CaF2 but chemical reactions between the BST and the Si prevented the epitactic growth on Si. An x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) depth profile indicated that the BST had reacted to form a silicate and titanium silicide. The BST on CaF2 -Si(00l) substrate was partially epitactic and formed a 45° rotated orientation relationship such that the Si (110) is parallel to the BST (100).
