95% Al2O3 ceramics and Si <100> crystal were implanted by Ti ion in a MEVVA implanter. The influence of implantation parameters was studied by varying ion fluence. The samples were implanted by 80 keV Ti ion with fluences from 1 x1015 to 1 x 1018 ions/cm2, respectively. The samples were investigated by SEM, SAM, and four-probe measurement. Differentmorphologies were observed on the surfaces of the samples due to irradiation damage, and clearly related to implantation parameters. XRD spectra confirm formation of titanium silicides on the surfaces of Si samples with ion fluences equal to or high than 1x1015 ions/cm2. The experimental results suggest that it is possible to synthesise titanium silicides by using a MEVVA implanter.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
